I love the book Jurassic Park.


But it's inappropriate so you might get in trouble if you read it at school.
(podcast reference omg)

You've got the goods.

I read Jurassic Park when I was still very young because I loved the movie and the ideas behind it so much. I couldn't have been more than 9, but even though much of the techno babble was above my head at the time, I run into instances all the time where I realize vast parts of my understanding of the nature of pretty much everything comes from bits and pieces of that book (Ian Malcolm in particular) that never left the back of my mind. Hence why Ian Malcolm is one of my fictional heroes.

Of course, I have no idea exactly what your project is Mondo, so I can't say for sure. If its a book report type deal however, I do highly recommend Jurassic Park as the entire story is essentially an excuse for Michael Crichton to talk about chaos theory for an entire book. A lot of good material to work with there.

The Boy Who Couldn't Sleep and Never Had To is a bad ass book by DC Pierson of Derrick Comedy fame.

http://www.amazon.com/Couldnt-Sleep-Never-Vintage-Contemporaries/dp/0307474615

I would recommend this.

A Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving.

It's really good and gets really intense at points.  The first chapter of this was what the movie "Simon Birch" was based on.

I've always wanted to say how I feel about chicken_dude, he is like the whitest person I've ever seen on the internet, not like pale, but he (along with Nathan) is the embodiment of what my country calls a Gringo. You are very appreciated white man.

My dad talked to me about American Psycho. I saw the movie and it sounds like a good book.

Does anyone know how long that book?
