As for me, I just finished the Hunger Games series. I liked it enough and found it to be pretty engaging but I can tell Suzanne Collins is an Atwood reader, because a lot of the elements of the books reminded me of Oryx and Crake and The Handmaid's Tale. The ending was a little anticlimactic, but I did enjoy that the main character, Katniss, was realistic and not overdone in badassery or "femininity" but had a good mix of both. I approve of girls (well all kids even) reading these over Twilight, definitely. On to this next: http://cdn.thegrindstone.com/files/2...s-Tina-Fey.jpg |

I'd be ok with it. Tina Fey is amazingly hawt, even with hairy arms. |

I'm about 115 pages in, and George R.R. Martin seems to throw irrelevant sex scenes in every other sentence like a horny teenager. |

i think its interesting that that Stieg Larsson has actually in a very weird way created a character that seems to enthrall everybody.....to me she is a gruffer version of many people i've known in my life myself included (although i've never met anybody thats quite gone through what she's gone through).....it intrigues me to have an anti-heroine who is involved in the fringes of society....which i think is also what draws her into othwer people who read the book....a truly interesting character looking forward to the next two books.... |

I still have to see the TV series as season two is out on TV in April. Favourite characters have to be Tyrion Lannister, Jaime Lannister, Bronn and Stannis Baratheon. |
I just finished rereading Invisible Man. Just as amazing as when I first read it, and it's now overtaken A Clockwork Orange as my favourite novel.

I've read the Millenium series multiple times and they are actually a few of my favorite books. In Sweden, apparently, the name of the book was directly translated into Men Who Hate Woman (I could be wrong) That title would have been better than ''the chick with a tattoo that is irrelevant to the story line".
Also, I'm reading Middlesex by jeffrey eugenides. |
Anybody know any good books about serial killers?
