A little bit of blather...

Reading is Fundamental!
Mood:  lazy
Now Playing: The blather book club begins!

If you remember when Mel Gibson got busted for DWI (and other things) it was mentioned somewhere (too lazy to look) that Mel-o had plans to make a book into a movie. The book is called  "Those who Trespass" by  Bill O'Reilly.

 

Yup Bill O'Reilly. This guy.

 

 

I never knew such a book existed and  I know about one other person who has read it.  I had read BO'RS stuff before and somewhat agreed with him. Course I don't recall what it was that I agreed with and I gave away the books to the library so I'm not going to look it up.

I never thought I would find this book, so I didn't even think I would ever read it. At this point, the book becoming a movie is kinda iffy. But then something happened, I found the book. I got it at a local yard sale for fifty cents. (so like Paris Hilton, Bill-o is cheap).

I could not resist this purchase. In the coming weeks or months (however long it takes me) I've decided to read the book and post my thoughts on it when I'm done. I'm at chapter five now. (ok it took me a month to read two pages and a half hour to read four).

 A friend of mine advised its easier to read if you forget who the author is, and it is, Bill-os picture does not appear on the book. Thank god for small favors.

When I finish the book I will review it.  As Keith Olbermann might say, Mr O'Reilly is good at fiction. Lets see if this is true. I think this is the first and last fiction book (that is if you don't count the other books he wrote, ha!) he ever wrote.

Oh, I'm really looking forward to hearing your thoughts about this book.  I really enjoyed it.  The plot kept me coming back for more.  I guess it's a good sign that you read four chapters in 30 minutes (unless you skipped pages at a time).

Here's to hoping you find it a good read.

I read the very first book he put out, so you've nothing to be surprised about.  It could very well be fiction like the last one.  No sense in me getting it because I'm waiting on something more realistic.
