What book are you reading?

[Blowboy]

This has probably been done before, but not as much as music etc so what the heck.

I'm reading "Moll Flanders" by Daniel Defoe. It's the biography of a woman that was like, a whore, a thief, such things. It's pretty cool, it was written before there was standarized English, so it's a bit of a challenge...but worth it:)

What are you reading?

[Hempamasta]

The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien.. it's about Vietnam. Pretty good.

book 9 in the wheel of time series

[Blowboy]

well, Its a plant, at first I thought, ow shit what will this be (I have to read it for school), but the farther I'm at, the more I like it. It's rather dramatic, which I'm normally not into, but hey, Moll Flanders proved me wrong:)

[whitekat]

[Radio Caca]

I'm about half way through George Orwell's 1984. After this I'm probably going to check out some Chuck Palahniuk because I heard he was good...

[birdgirl73]

I'm reading She Got Up Off the Couch by Haven Kimmel. It's a sequel to her first book, A Girl Named Zippy. Both books are about a young lady who grew up in small-town Indiana, and she just writes funny stories about her childhood adventures. In the first book, her mom, who tended to be sort of sedentary, sat on the couch nearly all the time, reading. She titled the second book the way she did because in it, her mom got up and went back to college.

Sorry that it didn't turn up... Fear and Loathing is one of my favorites.

I'm reading Afternoon of an Author, a collection of short stories by F. Scott Fitzgerald

[Skink]

I can truthfully say that I never read a book all the way through... Reading is a pain to me...

[BizzleLuvin]

a series of short stories by margaret atwood. she is incredible, uproariously funny, sardonic, cynical, a feminist and rediculously cunning, quick, and deep. ive read the robber bride, the edible woman, and poems by her.
AND
the elegant universe by brian greene (i love astronomy)
cannabis: a history by martin booth. this book is fascinating, im always quoting it.

I'm reading three books, but they're not fiction, they're technical so I won't bother listing 'em.

Secrets of the Code -The unauthorized guide to the mysteries behind the Da Vinci Code. By Dan Burstein.

Very interesting read. More of an investigated look into the topics and not so much of a "bible thumping" type book. Gives you tons of info and the opinions of other researchers.

[insanity]

Am I the only person who HATES the Da Vinci Code? Dan Brown can't write worth shit (his style is generic supermarket), and his books make him the Thomas Kinkade of literature.

[Fengzi]

I reading Cardinal of the Kremlin by Tom Clancy. I've been reading Clancy's books for a while now. Yeah, they're a bunch of rightwing bullshit but they're pretty entertaining too.

[hahaitsdoogle]

someone told me i should read perks of being a wallflower, by i ferget.
anyone have any opinions on this book?

[lateralus]

Am I the only person who HATES the Da Vinci Code? Dan Brown can't write worth shit (his style is generic supermarket), and his books make him the Thomas Kinkade of literature.Thomas Kinkade isn't bad at all. Picasso was bad.

[king kong bong]

right now im readin lateralus's post.

oh and his file from the CIA.

[lateralus]

right now im readin lateralus's post.

oh and his file from the CIA.I cracked the C.I.A. database and replaced my file.

Like the part about where I once told Bush to fuck off and he took my advice?

[king kong bong]

yea this is the 2005 one. im waitin on the 2006 one.

[Fengzi]

The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Trip should be required reading for anyone on this board. Pretty much a true story about the San Francisco acid scene in the late '60's and the "Acid Test" parties that gave rise to bands like Jeffereson Airplane and The Grateful Dead.

[tokinggreg]

Currently I'm reading The Extravagant Universe written by one of my professors (quite interesting too), but a really good book to check out is The Big White Lie. It's an eye-opener. I think it's written by Michael Levine, but correct me if I'm wrong.

[wholapola]

The Elegant Universe by Brian Greene isn't bad either. Currently reading Coldheart Canyon (Clive Barker) and Cell by S. King. REALLY, REALLY REALLY waiting for The Book of the Dead by Douglas Preston/Lincoln Child (May 30!), C'mon Eli Glinn--Bail A.X.L. Pendergast from jail!!!

there's something captivating about the trilogy...don't you think? although, i'm ashamed to admit, all the "spank spank phallus spank" does get a bit overdone... lmao

[minnesota man]

Animal Farm

[wordddddd]

ahhhhh...animal farm and the giver, two really fucking sweet books.
