Do you like to read books? What books do you like to read?

I am currently rereading a series of novels about a ruthless professional criminal.

I just finished "Meltdown: A Free Market Look at How The Stock Market Crashed, The Economy Tanked, And How Government Bailouts Will Make Things Worse" by Thomas E. Woods Jr. and plan on reading "End the Fed" by Ron Paul. Meanwhile, I'm reluctantly reading Raymond Benson's MGS1 novel.

Even if it's for kicks, fully aware of how terrible it is?

And inbetween readings of more serious books ("lol who reads about economics? It sounds so boring FAGET loololololololl. [goes off to make strong opinions about evil big corporations and how a vaguely described, all knowing and all powerful creator who has a monopoly on force can save us all.]")

I got a Kindle now so I got a bunch of stuff on there.

I read through The Bad Beginning (part of A Series of Unfortunate events) and I was reading through the novelization of Monster High by Lisi Harrison.

And I had read an entire Doctor Who book in one day. magic of the Angels

Of course. I don't like how the end of the book and the end of the first part of the movie totally differ. Haha. The books ending was much more believable

For some reason they condensed the first three books into one movie. I guess this was to give Count Olaf/Jim Carry more of an excuse to show off his theatrical abilities (which the first book doesn't really show) and to speed up the story if they wanted to make sequels (which never happened.)

I got my sister into reading them. She loves them. She used to bug me about what VFD means (you'll find out what I'm talking about later.)

Edit: They also made a game. I forgot if it was good or not.

Verify Friend's Dick?

Because that's what we tried to do with Jiko but he wouldn't let us. It's almost as if he has something to hide...
Or... maybe he has nothing to show. HAHAHAHAHAHA
