Book I'm reading: Un Lun Dun
it's quite good.
though rather strange. for example: on page 28:
'They heard the manic wet rustle of predatory rubbish'

Quote of the Day so far:
[each day i try to get one funny random quote from conversations. thus far, they are:]
"Your brain is just gonna turn into Jello and run out your ear."
"you think i'm[/i self centered?! look at the rest of the class!"
"is this a warhelmet?!" "no chance, it's a bowl."
