In all seriousness, I think it's one of the most amazing things ever written.

Paul Quarrington - Whale Music

It's about this musician who goes nuts and locks himself in his mansion and wanders around naked and composes whale music :D

OMG How did Alex not say...

Wizard's First Rule by Terry Goodkind. The first in a series of fantasy novels, WFR is a little like your typical fantasy, but it's a great introduction to the characters (you will undoubtedly fall in love with Zedd). The series quickly grows into it's own with the second novel.

And though the hum and sway gets me down

Sweeeet thanks guys. I'll check this stuff out.

I like to read anything really. Classics generally, as well as Chuck Palahniuk books, any sort of satirical writing, Kurt Vonnegut, Fransesca Lia Block, and whatever sparks my interest. :D

I'm excited. :)
