Right now I am into reading biographies/autobiographies. But I also really books that make you think, like The Da Vinci Code and those books by Dan Brown and I also like The Lord of the Rings.



Currently I am reading the Diana Chronicles, Under The Tuscan Sun, and one of David Beckham's autobios. I know, I am a retard for reading 3 books at the same time. I have a problem with that haha.

I like philosophy: Alfred North Whitehead & Richard Rorty (who just died in the last few days).



I like biblical studies: Bart Erhman, recently.



I have been reading a lot of Vampire books: Laurell K. Hamilton (http://www.laurellkhamilton.org/) & Kim Harrison (http://www.kimharrison.net/) & L. A. Banks (http://www.leslieesdailebanks.com/). I have purchased but not read yet Tananarive Due (http://www.tananarivedue.com/).



In the recent past I have enjoyed Thomas Pynchon, Joyce Carol Oates, Anthony Trollope.



It goes on and on.

Pretty much everything especially horror, Dean koontz and James Herbert are my favourite. And murder books, Jonathon Kellerman is great. But also love classics like Jane eyre.

I agree Bronte is a good writter "Jane eyre" for example is one of her better novels. Kingsley Amis is also a good versitile novelist "Lucky Jim" reflects this. Sometimes i find poetry better than novels Yeats and Larkin are my personal favourites yet T.S Elliot, Robert Browning, Ted Hughes, Wordsworth and Shakespeare of course are brilliant.

True storys, although they can be very disturbing and upsetting. It makes me realise that sometimes when I think my life couldn't get much worse I know it could and I'm lucky that it hasn't.
