Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights. Really not enjoying this book. Just finished Shelley's Frankenstein which I loved.

Reading an H.P. Lovecraft anthology I picked up in a used bookstore. I'm also reading The Long Walk...which is one of Stephen King's Bachman Books.

I just finished reading "1984" by George Orwell, it is definitely one of my now favorite books. I recommend it. It is rather complex and intricate at times, for myself anyway. A good read and book that kind of sends a chill up your spine about what could become of our already corrupt society and governments. This book seems to show what things could reach if allowed to get out of control. A rather depressing novel.

I don't know if this book is next on my list, but it's definitely on my list somewhere.

I'm trying to finally get through Naked Lunch. It's a lot more fun to read once you forget about trying to find a coherent plot in it.

The past couple weeks I read
2001: A Space Odyssey - Arthur C. Clark
Cat's Cradle - Kurt Vonnegut
Ham On Rye - Charles Bukowski

Right now I'm debating what to read next. I think I'm going to give Dickens' Bleak House a shot. I hate Dickens so hopefully this will either change my opinion about him or give me another reason to hate him.
