I use a Kindle. I like it. I like it a lot.

I've been considering buying one of these things for quite some time. Unfortunately, all the good ones aren't sold outside of the US (that I know of).

Started Crime and Punishment tonight as well. Also Das Kapital, just so I can say I've read it, lol.

 

Buy on AliExpress.com

last couple of months i read a lot of stuffs but two of them are most remarkable ones; Think of a Number by John Verdon, that was a very good thrill with very gloomy atmosphere and very good characters, i read in two sleepless nights and of course worth it!

the other one was Cast of Shadows by Kevin Guilfoile, very interesting stuff, sometimes guessable but it has a good end! movie material i think! ..***..

Hey, I missed you! Did I say welcome back?
Anyways, not sure if I mentioned this, I'm reading Sacred Games by Vikram Chandra. It's huge. I've Hell's Angels in the pipeline and will probably get the Millennium Trilogy by Stieg Larsson. Who has read all three?

Dude, that stuff is such garbage.

What is? The Millennium trilogy?

As I was reading them, I didn't really love the author's style of writing (a lot of bizarre stuff included like a furniture list from Ikea, constant descriptions of sandwiches) or the content at times, especially in the second and third books, what with the whole history of Sweden's govt, spies and all that.

However, Lisbeth Salander is easily one of the most compelling characters I've read in years and by extension made me like the books more than I should.

Now I'm confused.

Now I'm confused.

Maybe I'm being overly critical. This is the kind of book that I would maybe read once in a while too, but only as a filler in between far more quality books.

Winter Garden by Kristin Hannah, lovely story about sisterhood, motherhood and family secrets but too much teardrops :|

Exclusive by Sandra Brown, love this woman's novels, she knows how to make readers curious, and always have surprising ends

The Black Echo by Michael Connelly, a Harry Bosch story again, for me one of the best detective writers along with Harlan Coben, def. my favourite, in this one he is pushing the limits again

I read the first three books (The Bourne Identity, The Bourne Supremacy and The Bourne Ultimatum) a while back. I also watched the movie trilogy. And now i'm reading 4th, 5th and 6th part. Even though it's not the same author, the books are still very good.

The Bourne Legacy

The Bourne Betrayal

The Bourne Sanction

currently halfway through murakami's 'norwegian wood'. I'm sorta dreading what comes after, just because the book's already kinda depressing

Reading 'The Forever War' by Joe Haldeman.

Apparently it's a science fiction classic.

Epic tale of Kublai Khan/Mongol dynasty.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

Started it yet?

 

[sallyinzaghi]

[icemaη]

Anyone read the new Sherlock Holmes book?

Reading "A short history of nearly everything". About the history of science. Pretty cool.
