The Killing Joke by Anthony Horowitz

Used to read him as a writer for children, but apparently he's made the transition to more adult writing.. Funny and intelligent nontheless.. ;)

    Pratchett's Night Watch was my airport novel this time. The guy's a bloody genius. Effortlessly funny, with tonnes of satire a hair under the surface.

    Yeah, I'm sure he wouldn't write it now! I started reading that, but gave up a hundred pages in. I think I'd just gotten sick of Clancy's style.

    I read recently American Psycho by Brett easton Ellis.

    Great Book but also verry out of line it´verry hard reading it.

    At the moment I´m Reading Illuminati by Dan Brown.

    My favourite Book is Cold Blooded by Truman Capote a master peace.

    Has someone read these books?

    I've read American Psycho and it's somewhat of a cult classic..

    I'm sure every person in the world has read it by now..

    Funny parts and boring parts, overall - 4/6

    I just finished an interesting book by Leopold von Sacher-Masoch - "Venus in Furs"..

    You should look into it.
