Cartoonist Reklaw takes people's descriptions of their dreams and turns them into a one-page comic strip. Bizarre, quirky little comics.

While this doesn't have a lot to do with "Lost" outside of featuring some of its characters, it is still a good read. It tries hard to capture the flavor of the series, as much as can be captured within a book.

I always enjoy Bradbury's short stories. These didn't do it for me as much as some of his other collections, but everyone has different tastes; you might enjoy it more than I did!

If you're not familiar with Uncle John's books, you should be. Lots of trivial knowledge in here, great stories, on every subject imaginable, and all enjoyed in my favorite room in the house!
