This is what I am currently reading

Battle Royale - Koushun Takami (this is very good, about a group of 9th graders that are forced to kill each other on an island)

Severance Package - Duane Swierczynski (kind of like Battle Royale except played out in an office building with your coworkers)

The Wheel Man - Duane Swierczynski (A great crime novel, you would like it if you enjoy Elmore Leonard)

Battle Royale and Severance Package sound interesting. I'll have to check those out. Thanks.

yeah, Battle Royale is really good. It's not just about the violence, but it gives an insight into Japanese culture, and politics, and it is done really well.

But I have definately felt bad a few times for laughing at some of the situations. It's just insanely entertaining.
