Jim Kirk Book Club

Wed Nov 11, 2009, 6:07 PM
Have people read the novelization of the Star Trek film? If you haven't, I would suggest it because it's pretty hilarious. I kid you not, there is part where Spock "relentlessly pounds" Kirk. Funny shit. Anyway, that's not what this is about! At some point Jim makes a snarky comment to Pike about forming his own book club, and I thought "hey! I'd like to join that book club!"



I have just turned in my Senior Portfolio (holy damn) and as an English major I've got books on the brain. I'm also crazy bored at work, so I've decided to compile the books I feel Jim would select for his fellow readers.


High Fidelity - Nick Hornby
Finnegan's Wake - James Joyce
The Commitments- Roddy Doyle
On the Road- Jack Kerouac
Survivor: A Novel- Chuck Palahniuk
House of Leaves - Mark Z. Danielewski
Written on the Body - Jeanette Winterson
Frankenstein - Mary Shelley
Maus - Art Spiegelman

--Additions--
Macbeth - William Shakespeare
The Joy Luck Club - Amy Tan
Harry Potter series - J.K. Rowling
The Adventures of Tom Sawyer - Mark Twain

Alright that's all I got for now. Every one is a gem.

1. Post these rules.
2. Each tagged person must post 10 things about themselves on their journal.
3. At the end, you have to choose and tag 10 people and post their icons on the same journal.
4. Go to their pages and send a message saying you tagged them.
5. No tag-backs.

I LOVE your Home illustrations. And all your other stuff actually. ;)

Thank you so much!

What can I say? The Trek boys inspire me.

I totally made an account to comment on your page. I'm a sucker for S/k (in order of dominance, eh?) and was actually redirected to you from Home. I wish she would post more ;~; We never learned what happened to Spock's face o__o

Wow, well I'm truly flattered. Thanks so much!

I know!! We must know who punched him so Kirk can go be pissy at them.

At the very least, they're engaged and happy.

I wonder if you've read 'Atlas' and if so, are you planning to do artwork for it? It's my second favorite story and of course, I'm busy translating it :)

No I have not, but I'm now curious to read it. Where might I find it?

It's Spock POV, interesting contrast to Home, and it has Super!Jim, crew bonding, plot, adventure, and slow building K/S (only hints so far, and it's chapter 14 already) Hope you'll enjoy!
