Think I'll re-read Angels and Demons. I love the Illuminati and the movie is coming out soon. Much better book than Da Vinci Code.

Check it out if ya haven't read it.

got bored and decided to read again around August only about 5 i read before then.
both of the Books by Junot Diaz i would consider great books and would suggest them to anybody.

Neurotic Orange by David Winner
Soccer against the enemy by Simon Kuper

if you like soccer i would highly suggest these ones, both are very good, neurotic orange mostly focuses on Dutch soccer and the dutch way of life.
While Soccer against the enemy focuses on the impact soccer has on places around the entire world

Yeah. All the kids - is it 5 lads and one girl? - decide that it'd be easier to beat the big baddy if they all 'share a moment'. So the girl gets pummled by them all... in the nicest possible way, of course.
 
What in the **** was Stephen King thinking there?
 
I have no idea, and don't think I'd like to find out.

Did you like the movie? I was quite disappointed but Pennywise did freak me out so...
 
Oh, okay, I guess it was to unite the kids in their pursuit of Pennywise, I thought it was a totally unnecessary preteen orgy. Still ****ing weird, but, um, I dunno.

I thought it was ok. It was the norm at that time to translate King's work into made-for-TV mulch. Pennywise was one of the perks though.

My 'main' problem with King is he often goes too far. He's ruined a lot of endings by going far too far.
 
Well now that school is out i finally got a chance to finish up Outlander.

First off, I love a book when it really brings emotions out of you. With this book, I laughed,I got teary eyed, and in one part, I got very uncomfortable and had to stop reading for a little bit. I would definitely recommend it if you are looking for an adventure and something that deals with what would happen in reality in this century or in others. Very realistic situations in a not so realistic storyline.You also get pretty attached to a few of the characters, which is what i also look for.

This book was very thoroughly researched and detailed ( it's 850 pages long) and once you get about 100 or so pages into it, it is quite the page turner. After finishing up a few more books on my list I'll be sure to pick up the rest of the series.

...There is also quite a bit of smut in it :ninja:
 
I just finished reading 'The Festival' by H.P Lovecraft. It was in a book collecting various works by Lovecraft, titled Shadows of Death.

:up:
 
No love for the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy trilogy in here?
 
The God Delusion - Richard Dawkins, only several chapters in, pretty clever.
 
Just finished The Hogfather. Death rules. End of.

Now starting on Witches Abroad. Tomorrow, I have plans to buy Jurassic Park, Guards! Guards!, Small Gods, and Thief of Time, though I itch to put A Game of Thrones and Dune in there somewhere, but because money's tight and I'm on a Discworld kick, they'll have to wait for now :csad:.

Meanwhile, The Colour of Magic, Mort, Men at Arms, Pyramids, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, and The Husband by Dean Koontz sit on my shelves, as yet unread. I'm in a hoarding mood, apparently.
