Not everything he writes sucks. I admit it, I bought and read the diet book of his and it was right on target. Too bad he obviously doesn't follow his own advice.

I just started reading it, and so far, I haven't been enlightened to have the phenominal family that I'd like to. I know people who swear by some of his books. Hoping this one gets better.....or it will have been a huge waste of money...

Erm...nah...it's too easy.

Anyway, I just finished reading 'The Accidental Tourist'...it was fantastic. I've never seen the movie so am wondering if it was any good (bear in mind that I hate William Hurt, Heart, Hert, whatever his name is).

I am finishing the autobiographical Untold Stories by Alan Bennett, an English writer who did the screenplay for The Madness of King George and other excellent plays/movies. He is a British National Treasure IMO. In general I prefer non-fiction, biography, history stuf anyway so this has not been a difficult read.

For me, it's "My Life Uncovered", by Lynn Isenberg. Started out a bit slow, but really funny once I got into it. A struggling screenwriter ends up writing for porn movies, and leading a dual life.

I'm reading Almost Innocent by Sheila Gilchrist. Since we didn't get around to reading it in class, I'm reading it now.
