What Are You Reading? November 2006
#27

I'm reading this classic again and loving it. I'm working on my MA in English, so I have very little time for leisure reading. For those who aren't aware, Apocalypse Now is based on this book.
Next class starts next week and its Film Genres. Should be fun!

Just finished this one. As always, this guy rocks the Casbah.

This one's pretty cool. The Japanese culture comes through pretty well in the translation. Hardly any vampires so far, but cool information about high school and college activism during Vietnam. I'm sure there will be plenty of vampires later on.

Blood: The Night of the Beasts was very, very cool. Basically if you like most of Mamoru Oshii films, you will dig it. Very brief action and not a lot of vampire sightings, but the dialogue was really neat and the humor very dry (in a good way).

Started this. A bittersweet moment. I've been putting this one off because it is the last Sci Fi book of his that I haven't read and his next book, "Matter", is not going to be Sci Fi and we won't see another one for a loooong time. I love his non genre fiction (some of it is practically sci fi) but my favorites are his Culture books. I'm already loving the shit out this one, but I'm a little sad that this is it.

Spoiler:
I'm so into this series, it's going to be torture once I'm all caught up, waiting for the next novel.
