Van Helsing. Yep. From the movie of the same name. With Jack Hughman. Don't laugh. It is rather easy to read, and Carl is ever so witty. The banter between Helsing and him is crafty. My brain died and has yet to come back since Finals.

If on a winter's night a traveller by Italo Calvino and a collection of short stories by Raymond Carver called Cathedral.

And so the summer reading begins. :)

Still reading The Belgariad (I'm very slow :wink: ) although I'm beginning to get a tad annoyed with Eddings' remarks over 'theeing and thouing'. If it annoys him so, then why does he write it?! He said it in the first book, something along the lines of 'What is all this nonsense with this theeing and thouing?' Fine, it was slightly amusing. Until, in the second book, he makes exactly the same remark, adjusted slightly to fit the situation, twice in the space of around 50 pages.

:shock:
There's always been a lot of tension between Lois and me, and it's not so much that I want to kill her, it's just, I want her to not be alive anymore.

The Best Awful by Carrie Fisher. She (it's roman a clef) just had a psychotic break, and frankly, I'm bored. It's a shame, because Postcards From the Edge was so good.
