i sooooo know what you mean, laurel. we're in the same rickety boat.
except my genre is sci-fi instead of horror.

i devour books. i'll read pretty much any genre (aside from romance and sci-fi..i've never been able to get into those) but i don't read the classics or anything like that. i read what sounds interesting. it may not be honest 'literature', but i enjoy it.

i'm going to st. john's tomorrow, but there's a 6 hour gap between when i get to the airport and my flight, and i should take something to read. what books should i take with me?
here are my choices:
any one of the hitchhikers trilogy of five
orson scott card's: the memory of earth, the call of earth, the ships of earth, enchantment, magic street, ender's game, ender's shadow, shadow of the hegemon, shadow puppet, shadow of the giant
any one of the six harry potter books
any one of the lord of the rings trilogy
i probably shouldn't take no more than two books though...

OMG We're reading that for English! I love Swift. A Modest Proposal is probably one of the best things I've ever read.

Well, I haven't read it so much as listened to my prof talk about the general plot and a couple of key points from the first book. I could write it, but I can't make any promises regarding that "good" clause.
