Haha, no I've read them all within the past 8 weeks or so.

I'm always reading something.

I started reading Atlas Shrugged to attempt to write an essay in it for a scholarship that was worth 10 grand back in HS but I never got to finishing it. It's a good book, it just gets boring as shit sometimes. I'm going to try to finish it sometime soon.

I downloaded a sample and if it isn't all bad I will try it. I have read supernatural romances before and they were horrid as well. Sorry just never liked them. Merry Christmas btw the way Cig.

Catcher in the Rye - J.D.Salinger. Read it recently, gf recommended it to me and didn't regret it one bit, fast reading book, interesting view and kinda refreshing after Lev's Anna Karenina, which turned out kinda wearing, mostly because I overrated my russian skills and listened to a hell lot of Radiohead at the time.

I'm thinking about starting to read The Enchanted Soul of Romain Rolland, I completely loved Jean-Christophe and want to read something post WW1 of Rolland. Someones read it, any reports?

Catcher in the rye I found so dull I didn't finish. And Karenina even more emphatically so.

[Martin]

out where?

 

[GordoDeCentral]

out where?

out of your comfy surroundings adventure calls, but seriously to call catcher in the rye dull is pretty outrageous

i am pretty outrageous, that's why you get burned so much

 

[GordoDeCentral]

you are the antithesis of 'outrageous' unless you lead a double life you failed to share with us, have you ever been in a physical fight?

wait, now I'm confused. is being in a fight outrageous or is not being in a fight outrageous? make up your mind
