I actually thought Generation Kill and Jarhead were from the same universe.

Anyways, if my avie hasn't given it away yet, I wanna complete my Starman omnibus. I've gotten 3 (of 7?) so far

They are, homie.

Well, not exactly. Jarhead takes place during the first gulf war, Generation Kill is the intro to the 2003 Invasion of Iraq. The bitter thing about the show is that although it was made in 2008, they hinted that the war would last forever, which it kind of did.

I really want to get into the good Star Wars novels. I've read a couple already that were set in the Clone Wars following the soldiers, and damn were they ever fantastic.

I want to read the book metro 2033...I played the game but my friend assures me that the book actually goes into detail about Bourbon and tells full story of life in the metros... The problem I heard about reading metro is that it's basically Russian text just Google translated over so you will find alot of translation errors

Are you sure there's no legit English translation? I could translate it you know - I already did this before.

Books I want to buy and read:

Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Last Olympian
The only Percy Jackson book I'm missing I already have all the 4 books (Lightning Thief, Sea of Monsters, Titan's Curse, and Battle of the Labyrinth). Basically priced at P300 ($6.66), for now I can't buy it, coz my parents don't have enough money lol. xD.

Heroes of Olympus books set
Still haven't finished the Titan's Curse, but since I'm a Riordan fan, I want to buy all his Heroes of Olympus books (still no Heroes of Olympus books set being sold here. That means, I have to buy them one-by-one. :P)

"Hmm, this author whose work has previously been useful to me has a book on the exact topic I'm currently writing about. Maybe I could purchase myself a copy of this book and read it and use the knowledge therein to further my own work..."

"Ah."
