Le Citta Invisibli-Italo Calvino.
Interesting read.
Right now I'm reading "Black House" by Stephen King and Peter Straub, and I'm starting to get the feeling that king's overrated.

MISERY
by Stephen King

"King's ghoulish tale of psychotic "number one fan" Annie Wilkes holding her favorite author, Paul Sheldon, prisoner, unfolds in perfect pitch." (Loved it, King's VERY BEST!!)

:last non-fiction book read:
The Night Stalker: The Life and Crimes Of Richard Ramirez
by Philip Carlo

..a long, vivid, spellbinding book that reads like a novel; weaving a complete, highly-detailed picture of Richard Ramirez and recreates an unbiased look at his childhood, horrific crimes, capture and trial and the mystery that still surrounds him. A must read for those into 'true crime' and 'criminal psychology', my scariest read ever!!!

Just got done reading a book that looked like it was going to be about serial killers, but ended up kinda dissapointing, now reading a book about cellphones (stephen king) which is alright, and another book called The lady and the unicorn that I got for cheap at the bookstore....the last really good books i read were Daughter of Fortune and The Secret life of Bees.....also like Angels and Demons, much better than The DaVinci Code in my opinion....
