I'm currently reading a book about horror films called Projected Fears, pretty interesting.

I just abandoned a book called Hunted Past Reason by the guy who wrote I Am Legend (and whose name I'm totally blanking on) - which started cool (about hiking and, as a hiker, I thought that was cool) but then turned into cliche-driven Deliverance rip-off. I just skipped to the last page and felt all the better for it.

Last really cool horror-ish book I read was House of Blue Leaves, of which I liked the core of the story (but could've lived without all the "postmodern" graphic touches) but that's me.

I think you mean Danielewski's House of Leaves. One of my faves.

Last book for me: Chuck Palahniuk's Choke

Yeah - mattheson. I loved I AM LEGEND and some of his other stuff but, damn, Hunted Past Reason was really "phoned-in". Very disappointing.

Belly Laughs, by Jenny McCarthy. Yes, THAT Jenny McCarthy. Kind of required reading for people who are going to be having a baby soon.

Its actually very informative, and funny as fuck. Who knrew blondes with fake tits could actually be smart?

I think she got rid of the implants....

Just bought Haunted, the book of stories by Chuck Palahniuk.

If anyone's read it already, don't say anything.
