Hey, /lit/

What was the last book you read for fun and honestly enjoyed?

Pic related. It was a great book. :)

>>	Anonymous Sat May 15 23:02:00 2010 No.674834 Child of God by Cormac McCarthy (the last book I read was Les Chants de Maldoror, but I'm not sure if I "enjoyed it" per se.)

>>	Anonymous Sun May 16 14:40:00 2010 No.676876 I read Last of the Mohicans and loved it

>>	Anonymous Sun May 16 16:04:00 2010 No.677246 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. It was so fun I finished it in two days something I usually never do.

>>	Anonymous Sun May 16 16:06:00 2010 No.677264 >>674825 Melville was an amazing writer in general, at least in my opinion.
