"Everyone's Got A Bono Story" by Anne Marie O' Connor.

Easy read but pretty forgettable.

Frankenstein - Mary Shelley ---
Very difficult book to read for the $50 words Shelley threw into it. Sounded like she had her thesaurus at hand while she dreamed it up. She seemed to choose over complicated words where simpler ones would suffice. Good story if you can muscle through it.

Dracula - Bram Stoker ---
Awesome book - full of rich description. No wonder it's a classic. You won't find this exact material in a screen adaptation. Great read.

Stephen King's Cell

Just finished it. Only took me 4 days. Good to see King getting back into his post apocalyptical world's with the supernatural touches. Reminded me of the Stand.

The Da Vinci Code, the book feels like a puzzle to figure out.

He never claims the book is fact, it's a book of fiction.

It's more based on his theory than it is fact.
