Just started Life by Keith Richards. So far, I'm not impressed. It's disjointed. But I guess I'm just reading for the interesting bits anyway. It's by KEITH RICHARDS!!! Were you expecting a tightly woven, linear, comprehensible narrative??  I actually really enjoyed that book. But yes, it's a mess! But he has a co-author on it. It's funny though cause it feels like what I imagine sitting in a room listening to him talk about his life.

reading speaker for the dead (2nd Ender book) by Card. That's my favorite OSC book.
Would you recommend reading them in release order or chronological order?

My last round of reads... This Alien Shore by C.S. Friedman. Some authors click more than others and she's one of my favorites. Both the Coldfire trilogy and the Magister triology were very satisfying, so went after her older stuff. Good move on my part.
Fragment by Warren Fahy. If this one doesn't send your sense of wonder through the roof then there's nothing much to say. Best movie of the summer, if only in my head.
Buried Prey by John Sandford. Twenty-first Prey novel and they've all been top drawer. Can't go wrong with Sandford, a true pro.
Patient Zero by Jonathan Maberry. Roll John McClane, Jason Bourne, and Mitch Rapp into one badazz mofo and recruit him to fight zombie bio-terror. I'm about half way through and so far, so good. First book of a series.

I picked-up a nice Heritage Club slipcase edition of Flowers of Evil in WWC (of all places) from Chimera Books (KUDOS!).
It jumps the line ahead of many other books. Just started it. Many of the poems I'm very familiar with already.
PS The name of the collection isn't guilty of Ruskin's Pathetic Fallacy.
