Readers thread: what or who are you reading right now?

I really love Carlton Melton III "Tongue and Teeth Landscape." It's an emotional rollercoaster, bluntly written, and sadly hilarious.

@Sietz sounds like good book, like to know how it was.

@PTSD4UandME that title blows my mind! "If You Died Tomorrow I Would Eat Your Corpse" very cool, bet some great poetry

Which one?
The men who stare at goats is great, CIA mindf*ck stuff - telepathy, telekinesys... :P
The other one I'm still reading and doing the exercises, very good one - but like, it's entry level stuff for those of us who've been treating trauma and addiction for a while.

Everybody Always: how to love difficult people
... Lol.

I am so glad you mentioned this book. I read as much of it as I could on Amazon, liked it and ordered it. :)

Used to love to read, like for many it's really hard these days, but I've been trying to chip my way through "10 best anxiety management techniques" from Margret Whernberg, also have been exploring the world of books on tape/audio books. Which I like for now but would really like to be able to just and read for extended periods without losing focus.

The Angry Therapist (aka John Kim): A No BS Guide to Finding and Living Your Own Truth. No touchy-feely here, just open, in-the-guts and real. This guy really works for me.

Right?! He's got a horrifyingly beautiful sense of imagery. If you're not familiar with Wrath James White he's an extreme horror author, he mostly writes (awesome) splatterpunk novels but he's put out a few collections of poems, mostly themed around horrific erotism (this book, in particular, was largely originally written as love poems for his wife), and if you're into that sort of writing I can't recommend it enough.
If you're not familiar with the extreme horror or splatterpunk genres, though, I also can't warn you enough that his writing is heavy, heavy, stuff, extremely explicit and sexually violent and can be a lot to take in if you're not expecting it.

Currently reading The Elephant Whisperer (which is a very good book!) for the certificate program I'm in. I am also reading The Heart of the Buddha's Teachings and How to Practise.
