The Beach

The Beach is one of my fav films - not least because of DiCaprio, who is a great actor - but I have never read the book... until now!

About halfway through and it's yet again one of those cases where the book is so much better even than the film. The Beach film was good, gritty and cool - the book goes a step[ beyond and makes you find something in yourself. It's style is so easy to read too and you really relate the main character (well I do).
Definitely recommended!

And at the same time I have been listening to the "Revelations" album by Audioslave. Very very good. I've never been into them before but they have an edginess that is fresh and nice. "The Curse" from the "Out of Exile" album is especially good :)
