The Five People You Meet In Heaven is a fantastic story. I really enjoyed it.

Also, I've heard lots about that Eats Shoots and Leaves book. I've got to find myself a copy somewhere. Apparently it's great for all kinds of application to Junior High academics. Not even kidding.

Eats Shoots and Leaves is in just about any book store, and I don't think it's too expensive either. Enjoy it.

wheel of time

so i'm hooked on wheel of time as you know. i recommend reading it all together at one time, not with a year between books like i did. i got quite lost for a while. had to remember who people were, and what had happened to them. i got caught up after a while, but i'm sure i missed a lot. can't wait for # 12. it's going to be way too long from now. two years till it's out in paperback. i'll probably take it out from the library in hardcover to reread the whole series as soon as it comes out, and then buy it later. catch you later man.
