Curious Incident - yes
Picture of Dorian Gray - yes
Choke - it's my favourite Paluhniuk book but if you've read one, you've probably read 'em all. If you enjoy him a lot or something, go for it.
God Bless You - yes, especially if you're interested in that wacky inter-related world of Vonnegut characters (that is why I read it)
I, Robot - yes (it has nothing to do with the movie at all!!! except robots!)

People have made such a fuss about how wonderful "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time" is, and I really don't know why. It's not really that accurate of a portrayal of autism.

Also is ttyl any good?

In an unironic sense? No.

I thought it was funny and cute. I enjoyed it!

Wow, we have a lot of the same taste. I just bought 'The Fall' as I just read 'The Stranger' this last year. Although I do not read nearly as fast as you do.

I like the blue you put for House of Leaves. I will have to say, as a whole, I was disapointed in the end of the book. I thought it started great, had a good story, and just fell apart at the end. Really didn't like how it ended.

I read a lot of Gaiman this year; Good Omens (with Pratchet), Stardust, Smoke and Mirrors and American Gods. I thought American Gods was great.

I read really quickly for awhile, and then when summer hit I completely slowed down. Granted, Revelation Space was 500 pages and only good for about the last hundred of them, but it was still ridiculous.

Lately I'm really busy and don't have much time to read. I don't know who Gaiman is!

I don't remember how House of Leaves ended. I might read it again!

I liked 'The Stranger' quite a bit more than 'The Fall,' because it had, like, a plot.

If I may make a recommendation:

The Areas Of My Expertise by John Hodgman

I got it for Christmas and it's hilarious.

[nuero]

I thought it was interesting and good, especially at being a 'thriller' novel or whatever!
