    The Anne Rice Vampire Series...I know a lot of people think its smut, but her writing style is amazing. I'm basically reading it for the art of it.

    Kurt Vonnegut's "Timequake." Read it before and have always loved it.

    Best line: when good things happen, we must be sure to notice them.

    Just finished "Terms of Endearment" by Larry McMurtry. I can't believe I've never read it before; but it's been witty and really laugh out loud wonderful; and here at the end I've wept. I'll have to read some of his other books now. :p

    Mcmurtry's Lonesome Dove is a wonderful read. (And surprisingly, the TV movie was excellent and worth hunting down as well.)
