.i can't read good.
remember in clueless when alicia silverstone makes over brittany murphey and she tells her that she has to read one book a week, and it's some dumb book like "fit or fat?" or something? well, that's one more book a week than i read. and that makes me concerned about whether or not i am an intelligent human being.
anyway, i think it will much benefit me to read a book a week. (or at least make a list of books i would read if i were to actually read a book a week.) suggestions welcome.

i agree with striking strunk & white. that aint reading. that was my main comment. the list looks good. also, what about some dosotovesky? he's good stuff. and if you like murakami. try oe--he won a nobel prize, so reading that's gotta make you at least as cool as alicia silverstone.
