Tue 4/13/2004 8:09a | Just finished reading "The Five People You Meet in Heaven" by Mitch Albom really enjoyed it.
Re-reading the "Writing of Dorothy Parker" she makes me laugh & Flutes of Fire by Leanne Hinton - it's about native american dead languages. |

Tue 4/13/2004 8:31a | Yes that is true mmaus. I am reading "The Jester" by James Patterson, which I about to finish so looking for a new book. I am also reading "Maui Revealed", which was recommended by an LP person and is a great book. |

Tue 4/13/2004 9:08a | Currently re-reading (for the upteenth time) The Dark Tower/Gunslinger books. I'm on The Waste Land. I need to buy the newest one, but can't pop for the $40 hardcover price. I have a few other books lined up waiting to be devoured.
About The Green Mile: I don't know what it is, but sometimes SK books are almost better as films. Look at Stand by Me (adapted from The Body) or Shawshank. That was a good story, but a great film.
Now, if he only had time and $$ to make the Dark Tower books into films. Anyone got 72 hours to spare to watch them? |
