I dunno, the film is just never as good as the book is it?

Clout dammit, clout.
enough of your backchat young man.
I'm reading a book called 'the end of Irish history: critical reflections on the celtic tiger, and it's dedicated to Joe Strummer.
how odd.

Not odd! The dudes who edited that book are into music and stuff. And you want nerd? One of them organised an academic conference about The Smiths, in Manchester about a year or two ago.

I feel bad that I bought that book when it came out, but I've only ever skimmed it, and it's been on my to-read list for ages. I just took it off the shelf again, and I swear that this time, at least a few of the articles are going to get read...

Ok, for another odd, but this time in a bad way, book suprise.
Bono wrote the intro to a book and I'm considering using it. Well, I'm not sure yet, it will depend how relevent it is to my essay. Even the chapter titles have a bit of a bono ring to them - 'the voiceless dying: africa and disease', 'our generation's challange'
it just feels... tainted... I'm not sure I can read it...
It's on my reading list though so it mush be a bit good
