Just got my three newest book orders today. Since I'm under doctor's orders to not move for 2-3 weeks due to a pulled muscle they're a perfect arrival.

Never did like da vinci's code, the bible code or angels and demons.  Those books never captivated my attention, just like harry potter, it's a turn off for me.  I like a book that makes me want to read the next page more than I wanted to read the last, Dan Brown & Michael Drosnin just don't have that X factor to pull me in.

I'd reccomend Fatherland by Robert Harris as everyone I know that's read it has been drawn nito the book.

I only like reading books about teens that have trouble with life and those about junkies :-/

Wow, I finished Da Vinci Code last night.. I WANT MORE ! I want to my local  BlockBuster to see if they had the Da Vinci Code Decoded DVD but it was already rented. Man I loved that book ! Can't wait to see the movie next year !
So, Fraisie.net is empty atm. I\'m trying to come up with something cool to put on it, and I will!

RE: Do you read books ?
I don't read many fiction books. Most books I read are non-fiction (of course :P). But the fiction ones I've read include Dune by Frank Herbert and other than that some books related to stories which are converted to stage shows...

The last fiction book I've read was the full color edition of Het Kaartenhuis (original English title: House of Leaves) from Mark Z. Danielewski. It's the most weird book I've ever encountered; it includes colored, italic, bold texts, as well as mirrored texts, braille, codes, etc... etc... and all with a meaning. It is a story within a story about a documentary about a story including many references to other books and stuff... In a way it can be compared to The Da Vinci Code. I highly recommend it (though it is a book which you either totally love or totally hate).
