BR	Funny that. My mum rang me today and said to me - read Brave New World !!! Will check it out this week. Thanks JK.
JK2006	Well, after I finish Lisey's Story (and I do actually believe Stephen King is probably the greatest living writer) I have rebought Brave New World due to comments on here and intend to reread that. Plus my friend Lynn Barber's autobiography. BR - try my Next Chapter after you finish Animal Farm. It's short and can be downloaded from this site.
BR	Not a fan of King either. I am re-reading classic books this year which I have not read for year. Have just finished JOHN WYNDHAMS The Seeds of Time ( book of short stories ) and have already re-read War of the Worlds by Wells and 1984 by Orwell. Nearly finished Animal Farm by Orwell today - a very clever and prophetic book.
veritas	Never been able to get into King. But I can't put a Ruth Rendell down until the last page. Particularly as so many are set in London and often areas you know and are about people you can almost recognize. I think she's a genius at putting into words the mundane human traits that can lead up to murder most foul!
JK2006	Oh dear, it's turned VERY nasty (about half way through)...
