I havent read

A book since college. Being forced to read, and having it be text book material really turned me off to reading. Deanna's post about alice in wonderland the other day made me curious about the actual books. Luckily my roommate has a copy that has both books in one. I'm almost through the 1st one, and it made me realize how much I love and miss

Anything by John Irving is EXCELLENT!!! I have almost everything he's ever written if you want to borrow any of them. David Sedaris is also a wonderful author. Slaughter House Five is a great read, and so is the Acid House (a compilation of short stories by the guy that wrote Trainspotting.)

What genre are their writing?

John Irving is fiction/drama/comedy. David Sedaris writes creative humorous nonfiction. Thye are both the kind of stuff that makes you think and laugh at the same time.
