Book Binging: The Short Happy Life of the Brown Oxford: And Other Classic Stories

The Short Happy Life of the Brown Oxford: And Other Classic Stories by Philip K. Dick

Alright, alright. I've finally gotten around to reading Phillip K. Dick. The man is everywhere it seems. And it seems that I still don't fully get what the big deal was about. I probably need to read more of him to put him in context. Granted that the man came up with some excellent, original concepts for his stories but the the writing ranges from good to aweful. But, the concepts, being so wonderful, were thought provoking and refreshing even two decades after his death when I'm sure he's been robbed blind by creative parasites.

Book binging: Murder List

Murder List by Julie Garwood

This book was really disappointing only because I've enjoyed her other books so much more in the past. I was only half suspended. It was weird. While I was reading it I couldn't put the damn thing down but when I finished I definitely felt tlet down. I'm sure it would make an excellent vacation read.
