    Ohh.. I haven't read Buddha yet, but I did read Holy War: The Crusades and Their Impact on Today's World. It's eye-opening... some of the battles that are going on today, in reality, stretch back hundreds of years. She has a really approachable, readable style. I'll have to check out Buddha.

    Right now, I'm rereading Alas, Babylon, by Pat Frank. I have a thing for armageddon tales.

    I'm reading a book about a US, hiv-infected, gay zenbuddhist monk who used to be a transvestite.. and yes, it's a true story :)

    It's a translation from English to Dutch and I don't know the original title, can look it up if anyone is interested.. very cool book.. has picture of him (youth and monk) as well..

    I love 'true story'-book.. it's nice to be in a completely different world although it happened on our own little planet.. it's amazing what some people encounter.

    I've started reading Dreamcatcher by Stephen King again. Read the book before the film and was sooo disappointed when I watched it. The ending is totally different so I'm reading it again to remind myself what actually happened.
