What do you read?
"Walden" by Henry David Thoreau -One of my most favourite books of all time. Like good wine, you have to take it slow. I've read it a few times over and it's pretty good. "Skeleton Crew" by Stephen King -A collaboration of short stories. Very graphic but interesting as usual. "The Lake" is one of my favourite shorts. "Napalm and Silly Putty" by George Carlin -A very funny collection of some of George Carlin's best skits. "...what you need to do is go up to a balcony and toss a watermelon in the bowl. That'll teach those rice crispies to sass me during breakfast!". (edited by [GGS] Cruel Justice on 11-28-05 04:31 PM) |

Me? I don't really read much... Aside from school textbooks. The last time I read something out of free will was the Harry Potter series...
And before that... Uh... I think it was the Goosebump series when it first came out ![]() Anyways.. you posted this in the wrong forum ![]() |

The Harry Potter books are my current favorites.
I also enjoy the The Lord of The Rings books from Tolkien. Those so far are my favorites. |

I don't really know why; but when I was younger, I'd always be interested in the Goosebumps series. ![]() ![]() |

Hmm...
Generation X and Microserfs, both by Douglas Coupland. There should be a word for the bizzare, introspective, angsty sense of profound sense of pure wellbeing that a Douglas Coupland novel gives. Cloudstreet by Tim Winton made me smile broadly. Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas - Hunter S Thompson. Man was an incendiary genius. Rum Diary was good too. |

Originally posted by Cruel Justice *cringes* Had to read that for English this year. Just... way too dependant on nature for me. -Catcher in the Rye, by J.D. Salinger.

Talk about a book that teaches you things. -Into the Wild, by Jon Krakauer. Excellent book, I just recently read it. I was impressed at how much I began to like the person it's about, under the circumstances. Read it. -Sophie's World, by Jostein Gaarder. All about philosophy, the founders, the history.. it's very interesting. The beginning is a bit tedious, but it definitely gets better. If philosophy is one of your interests, I recommend this. -Of Mice and Men, by John Steinbeck If you haven't read this, you should slap yourself in the face. >8( -Harry Potter series Dur. ![]() (edited by Danielle on 11-28-05 09:48 PM) |

Das Kapital by Karl Marx ... actually not really ...
Personally, I read whatever comes by my interest ... no particular genre, but some my favorites would have to be: Oedipus Rex by Sophocles. -Read it recently and by far classifies as one of my more preffered plays. Much farther than George Bernard Shaw's Man and Superman ... it's not about superheroes ... ;-; The Screwtape Letters by C. S. Lewis -I really enjoy reading any of Mr. Lewis's books, really. I just find him to be an excellent source of wit and wisdom. Definitely one of the greatest minds of the twentieth century. Holy Bible -... seriously ... it has more than one use, too. The Secret Life of Walter Mitty by James Thurber. -Okay, I cheated (again.) This is just a short story. But man is it hilarious ... influenced a lot of my writing, actually. READ IT!!! A lot more, I'm sure by a lot more people, I'm sure -I'm sure. |

Terry Pratchett's books about the Discworld.
Stephen King - The Girl who loved Tom Gordon, Salem's lot. Damn, who wrote that book about Captain Nemo and his subvmarine? I donīt know the english name for it but itīs one of my favorite books. Lord of the Flies by William Golding is also a very good book. Shows the humans true nature. Thatīs it for now. (edited by Ran-chan on 11-30-05 03:23 AM) |

The Blending series by forgotwhodamnit
-Great books, interesting to say the least. Lots of Science fiction books, Ray Bradbury's F 451 comes to mind. 1984 of course, and naturally, many more. Lord of the Ring / Harry Potter are givens. |

I mostly like reading fantasy novels. Some of my favourites are:
- Harry Potter (of course) - Lord of the Rings - Firesong - The Quickening (half way through the first book) - The Old Kingdom - Wicca |

Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH will always be my favorite children's book.
I also enjoy Fox in Socks. Moving on, I enjoy Neil Gaiman's American Gods and Good Omens, as well as a vast majority of the Redwall novels, the Narnia books, the third Harry Potter book above the others, Tolkien reads like a fucking bore, the Hitchhiker series is good, and I also enjoyed the Red Dwarf novels. I'm not much of a fan of John Steinbeck or Stephen King or John Grisham or any of those other current authors, they seem very, very bland in comparison to the fantasy/science fiction novels I usually read. I also like George Carlin's style in the comedy books he's written. Terry Pratchett is a genius, primarily for his books Mort, Sourcery, and Hogfather. As for plays, I enjoyed Hamlet over most of Shakespeare's other stuff, as well as The Importance of Being Earnest from Oscar Wilde, The Night Thoreau Spent in Jail from an author I can't remember, and Much Ado about Nothing as one of the few other Shakespeare works I enjoyed. And that's about it. I've read a lot of books. Those are some of the stickouts. Never, ever, ever read Toni Morrison's Beloved. |

Definitively the A Song of Ice and Fire series by George R.R. Martin.
It is a great epic fantasy story with many characters, parallel plot lines, good and very interesting narration. I didn't read his fourth book A Feast for Crows yet, since I'll have to finish some books for universits beforehand ![]() |
