You mean just listen to opera like you would listen to song lyrics? Well it's a good exercise, but the content is not very interesting imo, I prefer books

El Túnel by Ernesto Sabato. Even though this is certainly not merely a simple romance story, I recommend it to anyone who has loved someone, someday in some way. You'd feel sympathy with the main character not in the ordinary ways one might be sympathizing with someone who is in love, but you'd surprisingly discover mutual feelings between yourself and the main character, some feelings you'd never thought someone else would have had them too.

The Diamond Age- Neal Stephenson

I read his 'Snow Crash' a while ago, good sci-fi imo.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

Cool. I'm trying to download it, but it hasn't even started yet.

 

[mikhail]

I've read it. Quite different to Snow Crash, and I'm not sure about the ending, but it had me fairly engrossed for a few days.

You've read everything I saw it on a top 10 list of dystopian books and I'm gonna give it a try.

 

[mikhail]

Nothing like, I'm afraid. Moderately well read in science and science fiction, but not so much in any other genres.

Do you know about this one?

I discovered it just a few weeks ago, never heard of it before though I like the dystopian theme. Have it on my shelf now, haven't read it yet.

Any tips for staying focused on reading a book. I must read some technical books to be honest but find it hard to concentrate. Its a PDF document so I keep coming back to the forums and look for new posts!!

 

[icemaη]

There's no way. You are doomed. Just like me

 

[Yamen]

I know. But I really really need to focus and cannot

 

[icemaη]

The only way I can read technical books is when I have the hard copy. PDFs are a pain.

 

[Yamen]

I keep switching between the PDF and the hard copy . Its just the concentration part that I am missing out on.

Cinderella in the forest.

I recommend it to anyone. It's how she got raped in a dark valley and how she enjoys eating fried hotdogs later on.
