    Hmmm. Yes, but only if it is the back of an adult cereal box.

    I'm reading "fun with Dick and Jane". However I'm having trouble with the interrelationship between Spot and Puff. Maybe someone can help me.

    Well see spot and puff examines the cross-cultural anthropomorphic interrelationships promulgated by a western power structure through a Foucaultian lense using ethological techniques.

    Duh!

    Right now, I'm about half way through Anthony Bourdain's third book, Medium Raw. Just an easy, light-hearted read for the summer. If you like his irreverent, satirical style, then it's definately worth a read-- a book hasn't had me laughing out loud like this in a long, long time.

    My wife and daughter have just finished reading "The Host" by Stephanie Meyer, so I thought I should read it. It is not really my style of book...

    For reason i can't understand i've never read anything from Pratchett. Maybe i should get myself corrected and try one. Is there any cronological etc order i should start from or does anything go without me missing anything?

    Yes and no, each bookin the series stands alone, BUT the characters do tend to flow between books so it is better to read them in order, though saying that i have missed a few of the recent ones, but Sam vimes has been in them for ages so I kind of knew what he was about. Now I am in my thirties I Recon I will get a lot more out of them. A lot of social commentary but very funny.
    The first book is called "the colour of magic"
