I just read :

Girl With The Dragon Tatoo ( was good, took a bit to pick up steam though )
My wife has read all 3 of the trilogy and really enjoyed them all.
Iko wrote:Under The Dome ( Best Stephen King book ive read in a long while, folks who enjoyed The Stand will like this one, but will still find it fairly fammiliar ).
She read this recently as well (it was her first King novel) and she couldn't put it down.

I'm currently making my way through James Pattersons Swimsuit which I'm really enjopying but I'm a bit of a JP fanboy if I'm honest, I have Bret Harts biography lined up next, not a fan of wrestling anymore but back in his hey-day I was a big fan so I'm looking forward to it.

Under the Dome was a great book by SK but you have to admit, The Stand was by far the best and scarriest ever!

No comparison as far as chills go, The Stand is really a perfect book.
Did you see the graphic novel they did of it ?
Turned out pretty great, i bought it for my brother for Christmas.

Themen who stare at goats. FInished it. Bloody good laugh, though I felt guilty for enjoying it so much. Watched the movie too, was a pretty decent adaptation of the book, but could have been better... get the book, its just too damn funny, and all of it is true :D

I'm reading Juliet Naked by Nick Horby atm, not overly enjoying it TBH.
I think its the made up musician thats bugging me.
As for this thread...egads you stoners, i read the entire thread and most of it is you wankers arguing about religion ( are you serious, newsflash its 2010 ) and football talk, not a hell of alot of good fiction titles in here.
I should of stuck with my own thread maybe and just avoided eye contact with the thread police :D .
