Parrot Head is an unknown quantity at this point

I know you've all been waiting for me to chime in, but I really don't have much to add beyond some previously listed.

- Angela's Ashes (The technique used really pulled me in and appreciate his writing ability)
- Mother Night (I think I may have liked this more than Slaughterhouse V)
- Les Mis (Abridged -- I couldn't put that down, read it before seeing it performed)
- Harry Potter

I haven't had a lot of time the past couple of years or so to read and when I have it's mostly been non-fiction -- American history, Stephen Ambrose, baseball.

Hemingway doesn't do anything for me -- I can't stand such self-centered characters as those in Sun Also Rises. And, outlier, Angle of Repose? It was all I could do to make it through that for a class at BYU.
