Finished chapter 1. The "what the f***" nature of the book is slowly kicking in.

My first Iain Banks/Iain M. Banks novel! And I'm afraid to read this, this is supposed to be dark, horrible and grotesque, weird and abominable. But it is a cult classic, so I'm tempted to read it. It did a lot of thinking before buying it.

Whether I can stomach this book, I will have to read and see, I guess.

*gulps down in utter terror*

Sigh, I'm disappointed with their take on adult Draco Malfoy, this Draco is not who I hoped to see after all that happened.

The story has been interesting so far. A lot of throwback scenes from the HP series as part of the play, nostalgia is hitting me hard! Oh, the feels!

An audiobook by Samuel L. Jackson! I'm sure the audiobook will be entertaining AF, but I'm curious what the book will offer, I picked this up only because I found SLJ's audiobook.

Sankara Jayanth S is 15% done with The Great Train Robbery
This has been very very interesting so far. It is based on a true incident in 1855 in Victorian England and it was considered the crime of the century. I'm excited to read a Michael Crichton book again, his Andromeda Strain and Jurassic Park were very entertaining and thrilling. Did anyone read this?

Interesting so far. But too slow for my current mood. Will pick it up later.

Fourth time this year. I'm in love with the audiobook narrated by David Clarke in Librivox.

Sankara Jayanth S is starting The Adventures of Tom Sawyer
Revisiting this Mark Twain classic. I haven't read this since my school days, it was in my syllabus.

I hope the book still holds up well when read as an adult. I remember reading the story a few times because it was fun and the adventures of Tom Sawyer were a wonderful escape from the dreary reality of sitting in the class.

Have any of you read this book after growing up? Or Huckleberry Finn?

Sankara Jayanth S is 5% done with Vector (Jack Stapleton & Laurie Montgomery, #4)
My first Robin Cook book and it's been an interesting read so far. Bioterrorism? Well, that's another scary possibility that makes me freak the fuck out about the fate of the world.
