I'm halfway through Infinite Jest and decided to take a break. Anybody actually finish it (1100 pages)?

I'm staring up Siddhartha tonight, hope to have it finished in the next few days.

I've been reading 'Women' by Bukowoski. Not what I expected (in a good way). Definitely a good read.

I've read Women, Ham on Rye, and Post Office and they are all really good/funny books.

Lately I've been back in a Cormac McCarthy phase. I've read his border trilogy, No Country for Old Men, The Road, just finished Child of God and about to start The Orchard Keeper.

After that I might order the first 4 books from Stephen King's Dark Tower series, they sell a set on Amazon.

i'm the best mayne, i deed it

agreed, all great books... Ham On Rye tops the list for me though

two books i'd like to suggest for anybody who might be into some non-fiction are:

Howard Zinn - A People's History of the USA (IMO this should be required reading for students in America's high schools)

John Perkins - Confessions of an Economic Hitman

bump.
a lot of good books being mentioned in the last few posts. shit i've read while on winter break.

classic bukowski. crude, dark, but brutally honest. when i was reading this i feel like i was reading a long tumblr post of some old dude who happened to get laid... a lot.

if you're a fan of anthony bourdain's sharp personality and writing style this is a must read. i personally think it's much better than kitchen confidential.

required reading. definitely a book everyone needs to read at least once. the ending is a bit underwhelming though.

alright, if you read the 48 laws of power and enjoyed it (if you actually read it, how the fuck could you not think it was a valuable book), BUY THIS FUCKING BOOK. nuff said.
