yes, it really does. my sister gave that book to me as a birthday present, because she knows that I'm very interested in american indians, and I must say that I have learned, not only from this particular book but from other "indian books" too, quite a lot...

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.

Ugh.. I had soem freinds that tried for 5 years to try and jam that book down my throat, not realising that with me the more you tell me i have to do something, the less i want to.

PLus, i swear they were trying to make and "Objectivist" Cult....


God, it has been so long since i have actually been able to sit still long enough to read anything...


How to Grill: The Complete Illustrated Book of Barbecue Techniques
by Steven Raichlen

I love to cook, what can i say.....



The last actual book book i read (one with a story, or not just a collection of recipes) was Deranged by Harold Schecter, near the end of 2004. VERY good book about Albert Fish.
