"using it for music" as in lyrics, or does it come with music?

Lyrics, but it actually has tabs to play songs the author made too. so yes to both questions!

then i'm gonna reread mark e smith's renegade as I just read simon ford's 'Hip Priest' so now the history and now i'm hoping renegade makes more sense.

don't read 'renegade', it was just take away any sort of admiration you have for the guy.

going to reread it. i already read it once poolside. most of my respect is lost by listening to anything post extricate

finished Jay mcinterny' 'bright lights, big city' and thought it was ok, quite depressing and short but i liked the 2nd person narritive. so i thought id give him another try and im going to start 'story of my life' by him in the next few days.

Finishing "A Farewell to arms" by E. Hemingway the next few days.

I have just ordered

Tortilla Flat (John Steinbeck)

Manhattan Transfer (John Dos Passos) and

For Whom the Bell Tolls (Hemingway)

I don't really know what to expect of them (well, except for the Hemingway one), which one should I read first? I can't decide

in the morning when i ride the bus to work i read jules verne's - journey to the centre of the earth. a lovely habbit i've developed :)

Watchmen

half way through

Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy, finally

skip it and read suttree

i'm re-reading oblivion by david foster wallace. there's a story called "good old neon" that's really sad in light of his suicide.

"Life With Jeeves" by P. G. Wodehouse

After flipping through a few pages i closed it and bought it.

The book of Alcoholics anonymous.

weird i just finished reading both of those!

The Very Hungry Caterpillar

Time and the Hunter by Calvino, just finished The Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri and Like Water for Chocolate by Laura Esquival, also working through The Inheritance of Loss by Kiran Desai but I don't really like it.

Generation of Swine - Hunter S. Thompson

'Zanoni' by Edward Bulwer Lytton

The Prince by Niccolo Machiavelli

just flew through 'blood meridian' by cormac mccarthy and whilst enjoyed the read i was left a little cold by it overall. the judge was a great character the kid was barley fleshed out though.

up next more mccarthy
