What's been your latest read?

[Skuffyshootster]

Of Mice and Men, for school, and the Necronomicon.

They're both great, and I recommend you all read them.

 

[Bloody Crimson]

Twilight. Yes, I do enjoy it so far. Call me a fag all you want, cause it's true.

 

[Blade Chunk]

Piers Anthony For the Love Of Evil.

 

[Tandrews]

Cell by Stephen King. Great book.

I was really dissapointed by that book, thought King could have really gone somewhere with it but didn't. Shame really.
OT: "The Stand" by Stephen King. Its got everything, 99% of the population dieing, fight for survival/creating new societies out of the rubble (one good and one evil), a battle between the forces of good and evil in the ruins of North America, the worlds nuclear weapons left unattended.... . Excellent book well worth a read

i just finished The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho for school, it sucked

now i've moved on to The Infernal City: An Elder Scrolls Novel by Gregg Keyes very well written with an interesting storyline

 

[Commissar Sae]

Just finished "With the old Breed: at Peleliu and Okinawa" by E.B. Sledge, Now I'm reading "The Battle for Okinawa" by Hiromichi Yahara. Both first hand accounts of the Pacific war. Granted also for a class but both are interesting reads.

 

[Spaghetti]

Last thing I finished was "Fallen Dragon" by Peter F. Hamilton, which like the rest of Hamilton's works I've read so far was shear bloody awesome.

Currently working my way through Frank Herbert's "Dune" for the first time, and I'm really enjoying it, especially now that I've found time to do some of my own reading, not just the stuff for Uni.

 

[NEVRINx54]

last thing i read was an article about women in the israeli armed forces.

 

[G1eet]

Neal Stephenson's Snow Crash. What a thrilling read so far. Nothing better than a black Korean hacker who hacks Japanese businessman up with his katana.

 

[ThePoodonkis]

I finished The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand a few days ago.
Currently reading Nineteen Eighty Four by George Orwell.

Thanks for the book suggestion. The only thing I really didn't like about the cell is how it didn't really explain who or what caused the cell phones to drive everyone insane. Also, if you like thrillers with witty humor and plenty of twist and turns, I would recommend any book by Harlen Coben. Tell Know One and Gone for Good are particularly good.

I recently read The way of the Shadow it was about some assassin and was a pretty good read. but it did end on a bit of a cliff hanger.
I think there is still 2 more books though.

"American Gods" by Neil Gaiman

Heheh. Get to the hooker part yet? XD

Interestingly enough, I was able to use that for a literary analysis final last year.

 

[Cmwissy]

Of mice and men.

It's old - easy to read and over-read, but It's a classic.

 

[Simski Burkez]

Currently about half-way through Odd Thomas by Dean Koontz.
After that, I've got Stephen King's Under the Dome to read.

 

[mrbones228]

The "tomorrow" series by John marsden

 

[Kiju]

The Sight, by David Clement-Davies

'tis pretty good.

 

[Icehearted]

Bloods: Black Veterans of the Vietnam War: An Oral History

Haven't finished it yet, but so far it's pretty depressing. Took interest when I wanted to learn more about the truth behind the characters in a movie called Dead Presidents.
