Picked it up at a some sort of used goods store for half a buck. Purple prose, imperialism, casual racism, oh my! |
I just finished White Teeth, and for an author with a good sense of humour who writes so well, **** was it a dull read.

More Dune! I aim to read Children of Dune as well but I don't plan on finishing out the series. If anyone has read all 6 books and wants to comment on whether or not it's worth it, feel free... |

Back on the Dick! |

A maze of death was like most Dick novels sort of promising but ultimately disapointing and thanks to the key plot point of some characters passing notes to a fish which then replies with cryptic messages just plain silly. I think I'm just going to have to say it. Dick is over-rated although I love his writing style and characters and some of the wacky things that happen I just find the plots unsatisfactory and often largely uneventful or rather not eventuful in a satisfying way. Still I'm going to read the ones I haven't read yet.

Thus Spoke Zarathustra This will be my third time reading this book and I'm hoping more of it will stick. That's the annoying thing with Nietzsche, he's so dense that it takes multiple readings and discussions to actually get what he's saying, or at least that's what I've found for myself personally. |
you should take a shot every time you read the title :)

A short book about World War 1. Bit of a history buff.

I really enjoyed The Lost World, I have high hopes for this. |
Literally everyone and their gran is reading a trilogy of books called 'Fifty shades' they're really dirty apparently.

I don't like books about love and **** anyway.
I'll take a note of that! What's it roughly like? :) |
Two teenagers passionately in lust who leave a trail of corpses as they fuck their way across Europe.
|
Wow, that's dark! I haven't read any books across those lines in a long while, although I have Myra Hindleys book which I'm dying to read. Totally forgot about it.
|
It's not quite as dark as Marqius de Sade's 120 Days of Sodom but it's pretty damn close.
|
I haven't read that either, do you mean its not as dark as the Myra book or the Bataille book? I need to get a list together of really good 'fantasy' books too.
|
I'm not reading anything at the moment, but I do plan on going book-shopping soon, and hopefully i'll find something good. I'm in the mood for a really long, epic book at the moment. I'm thinking of trying Les Miserables, though I don't know if it still holds up.

Guards! Guards! Been a very long time since I've read this, and thankfully it's just as funny then as it is now. I am a bit miffed that the ebook version is kind of... shit when it comes to its editing, especially when iBooks charges the same amount as a new copy from Barnes & Noble. |
