finished catch 22 last night, what a great fucking book. wasn't too stoked on the first 50-100 pages, feeling that it was getting redundant, but once i got past the hump... damn, it was good. that book tells the story of all humanity.
immediately following the conclusion of 22, i tore through WS Burroughs Queer, which wasn't really a great read, but i was through in less than 2 hours.
Post Office by Bukowski is a good read.
I also finally finished the Lord of the Rings books last week and i was kind of sad to see them go, i enjoyed company from middle earth quite a bit...
