I've just had a look at the synopsis, it looks as though it would be something I'd enjoy. I'll hunt it down in the library.

Hey Gophie, are you talking about the book I'm currently reading, or Russ's?      

[Gopher]

Your's Purelife.

[purelife]

I didn't know that you were into sci-fi.  I've read one of his books called Prey and that was excellent.  I really like his style of writing.

  If you like this genre of books, you will also love "The Discrete Charm of Charlie Monk" by David Ambrose.  I've been trying to find more of David Ambrose's books, but can't find them at the library or book store.

I'm into science fiction occasionally, I tend to get spasms of it - as I've not had one for ages it's about time I did so again. For some reason I  forget about it for months on end.

[purelife]

I'm pretty much the same as you.

  It has been a month since my last good book I got into.  I don't think I ever read murder mysteries and I enjoyed it, surprisingly.  But, it was time to read another one of Michael's books.  ))

  I hope you get around to reading it.  You'll enjoy it.  I'm already a few pages into it and it's already exciting.

I looked for it in the library, Purelife, but as it wasn't there I've settled for Literary Lapses by Stephen Leacock. However, I'm going to keep trying.

only want books. Hopefully I get the Origin of Species because I was denied the right to an evolution class in high school (and my local public school had it banned) and I heard about Richard Dawkins book on a BBC Interview.
