    There's something about summer reading lists. They almost always contain must-reads, but they are also supposed to contain page-turners... books that, while not being the most challenging literary content you've feasted your eyes on, are highly entertaining without being too heavy on the thinking. It's summer for crissakes, and that means taking a standard break from life. (read more)

    What kind of a fan am I today? In some ways I’m unchanged, and I still look for and sometimes find in the music exactly whatever it was I hungered after when I was 16 (proof that the world is a passionate place; a friend in the lonely night; release for my anger, confusion, idealism, desire fear and love).
