allright! nice to see a lot of comments,
Blowboy, that's so cool that you lived near Huxley's home. You could literally walk in his footsteps. BFA if you liked Frey, read 1984 or confessions of a dangerous mind, two books that you can keep reading and dissecting, with enormous social relevance.
SensiRide again puts it in words i wish i wrote lol.
Movies are just condensed, simplified versions of books. Spot on.

Beachguy, the Green Mile was indeed very well adapted.
Sensi, you should really read "Porno" by Irvine Welsch. It's great you can recognize it by the blow-up doll on the cover.
Zinnia, that's a relief to hear, you seem to be a bookwurm too nice. Those are the genres i read most too, but i read everything . My all time favorite genre is crimi/thrillers from the highest shelf in the bookshop. Carefully composed stories that leave you speechless, like Elmore Leonard, LIVE inside my head. Nothing is more fun than getting lost in a book, and for example missing your destination on the train because the chapter you were reading was just too exciting.
Drugs don't do that trick for me. Reading and forgetting the real world around you is a more intense dissociative trip than Ketamine.
