books...
i love anything by stephen king and anne rice. my favorites are "it,"
"the stand," and the "vampire" and "sleeping beauty" series'. also, everything john irving has ever written (he's my all time fave), but especially "a prayer for owen meany." also, "bridget jones' diary" and "bridget jones - the edje of reason" by helen fielding, "good in bed" by jennifer weiner, "white oleander" by janet finch, "faggots" by larry kramer, and everything by wally lamb. they're life changers. some other faves of mine are "confessions of a sociopathic social climber" by adele lang, "otherwise engaged" and "the zygote chronicles" by suzanne finnamore, "the nanny diaries" by emma mclaughlin and nicola kras, anything by jane green *except* "jemima j," anything by jennifer weiner, "pink slip" and "remind me again why i married you" by rita ciresi, and the "shopaholic" series by sophia kinsella. they aren't life changers, but they're *extremely* funny.
television...
i'm not too much of a t.v. addict, but i couldn't live without: queer as folk, six feet under, will and grace, or the osbournes. i am also admittedly hooked to behind the music and e true hollywood story...
