I loved Stephen Fry (and Hugh Laurie) in the "A Bit of Fry and Laurie" series. Not very Dutch, but the precedent was set. During the holiday visit to my family, I finished The Liar by Stephen Fry and Religion within the Limits of Reason Alone by Immanuel Kant. I find Kant difficult to get into, but I forced myself to finish it anyway. The Liar was fantastic, although Stephen Fry makes me feel like ... ... books at the same time. After finishing the HP books that I've got in audio (I haven't got Deathly Hallows yet read by Stephen Fry) I tried to start some of the other audiobooks I have for my walks to work. I started Dirt Music but couldn't get far as the reader's voice annoyed me too ... ... week for me (which lasts on into next week), so I've been busy giving and grading exams. Ugh.
So, still reading:

-Religion within the Limits of Reason Alone by Immanuel Kant: v. heavy reading, but not bad so far.

On a different day, I might have picked ten different ones!
No, not yet. I loved his The Liar, though and have enjoyed him for years as one half of a partnership with Hugh Laurie (House). Is "The Ode" a how-to book? A novel? What do you think so far. I went away for the weekend and came home to a box full of goodies:
The Liar by Stephen Fry (My current intellectual crush)
Practical Demonkeeping by Christopher Moore
I'm *so* excited to dive into both of these! Next up for me will be:
The Rights of Man by Thomas Paine
The Liar by Stephen Fry
Good Omens by Neil Gaiman
The Blood of the Fold by Terry Goodkind
Practical Demonkeeping by Christopher Moore
Lewis Carroll: Looking-Glass Letters by Lewis Carroll
Nightmares ... ... (which is well worth seeing if you haven't). Further, he has written many novels as KromesTomes indicates (I quite like The Liar) and an autobiography of his early/school years which is superb: Moab is My Washpot. As if that wasn't enough, he has also tried his hand at directing in the ... ... American!
On the topic, too, Stephen Fry also reads his own novels as audiobooks. For the not-fainthearted, I recommend The Liar, The Hippopotamus and his autobiog, Moab is my Washpot. The added joy of hearing him read them is wonderful. ... than others. I really liked his autobiography Moab is my Washpot and I liked Revenge and Making History. I thought The Liar and The hippopotamus were just OK.
I haven't read anything else. lilithcat (#5): I've read The hippopotamus, which was very good, and I've got The liar on my TBR heap ... regarding Revenge, I'm at the point where Oliver has just called in to say Ned has been kidnapped by the IRA ... I love this kind of Amis/Waugh English black humor ... ... a short e-book on Manifesting.
16. The Glass Castle: A Memoir by Jeannette Walls
A memoir and a very good one.
17. The Liar by Stephen Fry
It was just OK for me. Another of Fry’s fictional works.
18. The 100 Simple Secrets of Successful People: What Scientists Have Learned and How ... There are a few of these still hanging in my library for another go, a few that come to mind are The Liar by Stephen Fry and A Man in Full by Tom Wolfe and An Instance of the Fingerpost by Iain Pears.
