saigray Posted June 4 Author Report Share Posted June 4 yeah, its called glue- haven't read it yet, so I don't know how it compares to his other stuff. Maybe he's getting mellow in his old age, reading at corporate chain bookstores instead of clubs. ------------------ In wonder, I wonder "What Happens Next?"- Selma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frenchbread Posted June 4 Report Share Posted June 4 nice to see that there are some people who like irvine welsh on the board......i like some of his books myself...my favourite (and i know it is probably a common answer) is trainspotting......i read the book...then the film came out...the film was good, but the book was much better(like in most cases)......he created this atmosphere so well, i really felt "in" the story...and i love the writing with the accent in...classic...------------------ AIM: thefrenchbreadYIM: thefrenchbread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
