DRACULA! by Bram Stoker.
Been planning on reading it, but haven't found the, uh.. time for it.
I can't believe I were able to finish Frankenstein, seeing as I'm not someone who usually read books.

Every film adaptation Ive seen has been so different I wanted to find out what the real story was.

Just finished The Time Machine by H.G.Wells. I love the voice in his writing, even with 19th century background racism thrown in there.

Also reading Weapons of choice: World war 2.1 by John Birmingham. It's about a fleet of mid-21st century military ships who are accidentally thrown back to 1942 Pacific. A story done time and again but a pretty good read none the less.

What the Dog Saw by Malcolm Gladwell

At this point, I'd say he's one of the most important voices of our times. His examinations of the seemingly banal ("The Pill", homelessness, and the enron scandal) and seemingly insignificant (Ketchup, The Dog Whisperer), range from thought provoking to, quite frankly, earth shattering.

At the end, The gun seller was kinda disappointing and confusing, not recomendable.

Right now, I am reading three compendiums(compendia? compendii?) on purifying sewage and sewer water. I also have a book to read on the same  subject, called The Art of Purifying Water. When the nuclear apocalypse rolls over, you'll be happy I'm there to provide you with clean drinking water.

I was depressed today so I picked up Fahrenheit 451 and finished it in about two and a half hours. It's one of my favorite books.

I'm in the process of reading Misquoting Jesus: The Story of Who Changed the Bible and Why for the first time and reading Philip K. Dick's VALIS for about the 10th time.  They actually work well together, as the idea of Gnostic Christianity (a topic I find really interesting) pops up frequently in both books.  Misquoting Jesus is a bit dry, I guess, but it seems quite thorough and well-researched.  And it doesn't really have an agenda, which is nice.

The only positive of Ehrman, in my opinion is that he is writing to the masses on a topic which is generally written by scholars to scholars. He does have an axe to grind, though the issues (he seems to be focusing on pseudonymity this time) are genuine and age-old; he seems to take an all-or-nothing approach laden with non-sequiturs . I say this as a person who does not believe the New Testament to be canonical.
I've not read anything by the second author.
