shit it took forever to find this! :(
Anyways. I'm really looking foward to reading The House of Dolls. Its by Ka-Tzetnik 135633 (Yehiel De-Nur) " In the novel, the Joy Divisions were groups of Jewish women in the concentration camps during World War II who were kept for the sexual pleasure of Nazi soldiers.

Shutting Out the Sun, Michael Zielenziger -- about the hikikomori phenomenon which explains the weird murders in Japan, and maybe even Cho Seung-Hui
Karla & Invisible Darkness, Stephen Williams -- the more I read about it, the more I realize the deal with Karla Leanne Homolka was a pact with the Devil Tao of Synchronicity, Jean Shinoda Bolen -- great book for the believers in ESP and psychic reasons for true love Book of Transformation, Dalai Lama -- simple guide on meditation

Currently reading 'A Dirty Job' by Christopher Moore
Charlie Asher is a pretty normal guy. A little hapless, somewhat neurotic, sort of a hypochondriac. He's what's known as a Beta Male: the kind of fellow who makes his way through life by being careful and constant -- you know, the one who's always there to pick up the pieces when the girl gets dumped by the bigger/taller/stronger Alpha Male. But Charlie's been lucky. He owns a building in the heart of San Francisco, and runs a secondhand store with the help of a couple of loyal, if marginally insane, employees. He's married to a bright and pretty woman who actually loves him for his normalcy. And she, Rachel, is about to have their first child. Yes, Charlie's doing okay for a Beta. That is, until the day his daughter, Sophie, is born. Just as Charlie -- exhausted from the birth -- turns to go home, he sees a strange man in mint-green golf wear at Rachel's hospital bedside, a man who claims that no one should be able to see him. But see him Charlie does, and from here on out, things get really weird. . . . People start dropping dead around him, giant ravens perch on his building, and it seems that everywhere he goes, a dark presence whispers to him from under the streets. Strange names start appearing on his nightstand notepad, and before he knows it, those people end up dead, too. Yup, it seems that Charlie Asher has been recruited for a new job, an unpleasant but utterly necessary one: Death. It's a dirty job. But hey, somebody's gotta do it.  This book just drips sarcasm which I really enjoy and as ridiculous as the plot line is it's written so well that it doesn't really come off as such. Once I'm done I'm always willing to lend books so if anyone happens to be interested let me know! Another book of Moore's worth reading is 'Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff: Christ's Childhood Pal' It's the life of Jesus like you've never heard before! hahaha Very entertaining read as well!

I ended up finding my page turner. A veritable classic, "The Day of the Jackal". I think the author was Frederick Forsyth. Man was it well written, and entertaining.
Now I've picked up Jeff Long's "The Descent". Similarly gripping, but more modern and epic in its scope. Good stuff...

Jane Eyre - Charlotte Bronte
I only started reading it because it is an assigned novel for my prose class, but I absolutely love it. It's a great book. I also don't think I could appreciate it as much as I have come to if it weren't for my professor taking us through it step by step, showing us how much depth there is to it than at first seems. Great book.
