John Steinbeck's East of Eden. Sadly, this was the first title Oprah selected for her book club. FML. Shout out, of course, to our resident Salinas half brain, @BearsWiin .

Catch 22

Read it in the early 70's. Not sure how it holds up but it was something to behold

Need to revisit that. Started once but got side tracked.

I haven't read novels in a while. First one that jumps to mind is The Stand by Stephen King. #Highbrow

I used to read all the time. I cant really remember a favorite but I was a fan of Stephen King. Needful Things was good. He ended up getting a little too out there and at some point I switched over to Dean Koontz. Currently trying to read the GOT books. I am pretty sure @puppylove_sugarsteel is a big fan of if not THE AUTHOR of the Longarm series of badass pussy busting and tough guy lore.

All the Pat Conroy books -The Great Santini, Lords of Discipline, My Losing Season, Prince of Tides. Good shit.

And for @Swaye, the Sherman Alexie Rez novels. Though he’s taking a little break because his wiener got him in trouble.

I used to read Robert Ludlam books on vacation long before Matt Damon

The books were cool

Altered carbon is up there for sure

That reminds me, I really enjoyed several of William Gibson's books back in the day.

People tell me I look like the poor man's Matt Damon. I have met Minnie Driver once but she wasn't interest in me.

She's pretty tall, too. Too bad she wasn't interested. Sad really.

5'10". Really sad.

Kind of an existential, absurdist, piece of science fiction. Probably doesn't hold up as well these days for me but it was always my favorite growing up.

She's kind of 4.5 as far as looks go - but her boobies are fan-fucking-tastic.

Out of 5 or 10? She was beautiful when I met her.
