Just started listening to Neil Patrick Harris' autobiography. It's clear he had a ghost writer, but no shame in that. It's funny as shit. I cackled twice just in the 15-minute drive home. It was...

Been listening to Kasher in the Rye, the (fucked-up-)childhood memoir of comedian Moshe Kasher. The audio is definitely better than regular reading in this case, as it's read by the comedian himself...

I just started "The Eyre Affair," and so far I'm not very taken with it. Part of it is the narrator, who talks so slowly. I'm going to give it a little more time, but things better start happening...

Thanks for the recommendation, I only have about 15 minutes left on my current audiobook (Peter F. Hamilton) so I needed a new one. I've just picked up "Shades of Grey," we'll see how it goes.

Picked up Starfish by Peter Watts at the library. About halfway through already, and it's really excellent. Every character is a basket case in their own way, so it's like a 6-way psychological...
