My current love - Chuck Palahniuk. He wrote Fight Club, and the quote's an excerpt from his book 'Stranger Than Fiction'...I had to restrain myself from copying out a whole chapter haha.

It's the first one I've read by him, but so far it hasn't disappointed. I know what you mean, library fines can get soo pricey. For a couple months I thought I owed the library like $20 for getting a book soaked (accidentally) but it turns out I don't.

I have the thing activated where you get an email when you get a comment 'cause i love comments hahaha =)

I thought he was, I'm pretty sure I even remember seeing a picture or something...but upon looking at the picture at the back of the book, well, he doesn't look native Indian.
