    Oh my god Azzy!

    I knew I loved you!

    David Sedaris rocks! I loved "Me Talk Pretty One Day". I couldn't stop laughing when I read the chapter about trying to explain Easter to a bunch of people from differant countries.
    That was my favorite chapter too! I nearly wet myself!!

    OMG Jo, when he talks about the Rabbit that bringeth the chocolate (forgive me it's been awhile) I was tearing up! That whole book was great but his explanation of Easter was the best part! *Wonders why gay men crack her up so much*

    Love ya back Jo!

    Some of my favourite Koontz books:

    Watchers - first one I read that got me hooked

    False memory

    Dark Rivers of the heart

    Fear Nothing & Seize the night

    I just bought By the Light of the Moon to read when we come over to the States, unfortunately it is now going to be sitting on the shelf tempting me for the next month while I should be revising for my exam

    Terry Pratchett - fantasy, humor, philosophy - it's all there.

    and I also like George R.R. Martin - he keeps postponing the release of his new book in his "A Song of Ice and Fire" series, but the first three are simply some of the best books I've ever read.
