i'm reading "Born Standing Up: A Comic's Life" writed by steve martin
For the first 80 pages or so I thought his life story was a bit humdrum, almost like a parody of Bob Dylan's "Chronicles". Martin grew up 2 miles from Disneyland, and the fact that he became an entertainer seemed almost inevitable. But the book really takes off as he recounts the early days of his career making the transition from magician with a few funny bits to a full-blown stand-up comic. Not that Steve Martin is the colossal genius that Bob Dylan is, but it's interesting that much as Dylan describes how he became a songwriter because he realized he could never succeed as a virtuoso guitarist, Martin writes how he became a comic because, well, who doesn't want to be in show business?

this is the best i've read

OK, I'm reading Clive Cussler's Lost City. It was a bestseller.

I just finished Undomestic Goddess by Sophie Kinsella... The book is hilarious, I found humor in every page...
