Read "e" by Matt Beaumont. :) It's a book composed entirely of e-mails, and absolutely hilarious. :)

Love you too. :love:

Powder - it's all fictional, not real emails. But that's the style of it. It's basically two weeks in the life of an office, and all the mail that goes round. :)

ahhhh i c kit..... that sounds interesting. i guess come to think of it random emails would be pretty boring. like i don't care that you dad is coming over for supper or that someone replied to your thread on kirupa...

Alex Garland is great. His book is better than the movie. I need to finish the Teseract one of these days.

nah i dont think that rainbow 6 would be a good choice if he gets bored quick. there is a lot of stupid politics at the beginning and training and crap that are in all tom clancy books(even tho that book was great) i dont recommend it under his standards. anyways, some books i would recommend would be michael crictons: TIMELINE, artemis fowl by eoin colfer, enders game by orson scott card, and sphere by michael chricton. if you read this i sugesst you read rainbow 6 after because it is a very good book, but long.

that sounds really interesting. i might invest into that read.


powder,

the latest book i read is "the da vinci code" and it is very very good. i highly recommend it. it goes very fast, you won't be able to put it down.

Man, I've just bought Harry P. and it's HUGE!!

And Alex Garland, yes, it's not bad at all. I was really sad to see how the spirit of his book was completely destroyed in the movie. His ending was very powerful and truly shocking, especially compared to the bull**** they put in the movie.

And funny thing, I got to read The Beach on a beach in Thailand, not so far away from the "real" beach :beam:

True Story:Once i was in my school library and i fell asleep and wake up thinking i was in my room all tired and feeling sick from eating some MEXICAN food and got up and PASS GAS,lol the teacher kick me out and tell me next time i come to the library don't ever PASS GAS or she will have me sent to MAIN OFFICE and they will call the COPS saying i was comminting a crime because i was breaking a school law,come to think about they do have a law at my school which states there should be no noise in the library or you will be sent to the MAIN OFFICE,but i never thought i could be locked up for something that small.........
