I'm reading something which I usually dont, which is non-fiction, but this is a jem that I am reading right now, its called DUNE!! What a descriptive story, the irony is I dont like fiction because of the descriptions, really dragging on and shit, but you READ DUNE FOR THE DESCRIPTION, the guy somehow literally draws you right into it..
I hate fiction, but this hear is a good one, since the likes of a wrinkle in time, I've not read a good like this, although it is old, still, is a damn good read!

How Europe Underdeveloped Africa and 100 years of Solitude, both of these at the same time. I finished King Leopold's Ghost like 2 or 3 weeks ago and I was readin this next level book Sophie's World a month or so before that.

 Pinballing around major cities of the world, this is a breakneck journey from the New York projects where it all began to the consumerist arcane of modern Tokyo, from the schizophrenic menace of Johannesburg to the favela drug factions of Rio, as Whitbread Award-winning writer Patrick Neate investigates the way hip hop - the most potent expression of black America - has been appropriated and subsumed by both international capital and local cultures to create a unique and fascinating form of globalism. A stunning musical jouney, personal pilgrimage and cultural odyssey, 'Where You're At' is ultimately hip hop's story of how it conquered the globe and nobody noticed.
