Wonderboys

Killed off Wonderboys by Michael Chabon today. I highly recommend it. In writing style, it reminded me of Great Gatsby - particularly the descriptions. There are parts in this book that had me laughing out loud. I'll have to check out the movie now to see how it compares.

I also recently read these...
The Unbearable Lightness of Being: A Novel, Milan Kundera
The Alchemist, Paulo Coelho
Old School, Tobias Wolff

All three were very good. Particularly, The Alchemist is a great read on personal philosphy, and so simply written that you can get through it quickly and absorb it easily.
