When I go underground free from the Truman Mind Torture Probe I'll get started on Understanding Natural Language and work on my smart search engine. 10 years behind because of your govt. |
I read and liked the Hunger Games trilogy. They're making movies out of the books, so I encourage anyone who might read them to read them before that. The three novels are Hunger Games, Catching Fire, and Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins.
I'd also recommend Fierce Invalids Home From Hot Climates by Tom Robbins or Practical Demonkeeping by Christopher Moore |
I tend to read a few books simultaneously, some in the bathroom, some during lunch, some in the evenings:
The Gaea Trilogy (Titan, Wizard & Daemon) by John Varley (Sci Fi... really good) Mao: The Unknown Story by Jung Chang , and Jon Halliday (non-fiction, Pretty intense, banned in China) The Voyager's Handbook: The Essential Guide to Blue Water Cruising by Beth Leonard (non-fiction, have some long trips planned in the boat, and I like learn all the time) The Best of the Best: 20 Years of the Year's Best Science Fiction by Gardner Dozois and Robert Silverberg (some great stuff in there) Waterloo (Sharpe's Adventures, No. 11) by Bernard Cornwell (kind of silly, but ok) . |
Jay did i see a Danielle Steel book in there?
|

Fitty people reading

I'm in a book club, and as we couldn't meet for two months we have two books to read: We Have To Talk About Kevin, by Lionel Shriver; and, Let the Great World Spin, by Colum McCann. I'm almost done with 'Kevin' which is about a teenage high school spree killer, and told from his mom's POV... it's good but a bit overwritten.
A couple weeks ago I finished 'Just Kids' by Patti Smith, about her life with photographer Robert Mapplethorpe, and really enjoyed it. |
Eurecas and Euphories by Walter Gratzer :)
|
I'm reading all the Warhammer 40K books... before that I read all the Discworld Books
|
What's a "book"?
|
I usually only read when I'm on a long flight. Mysteries mostly, the last book I bought was the follow up to The Davinci Code, but the book kind of sucks, formulatic, predictable:disgust
|
A bit long and pretty heavy subject matter (Turn of the Century NY serial killer mystery), but VERY well written. It's one of those you say you will pick up for 20 min and end up reading for 4 hrs....

I'm reading the Robert Jordan series Wheel Of Time. (Currently on Book 3.) Also, reading Titanic Tompson - The Man Who Bet On Everything by Kevin Cook. Next on the list is the series by Peter Hamilton with the Commonwealth Universe. At least that's where I heard to start with his stuff. Just wrapped up Under the Dome by Stephan King. It was rad. :thumbsup |
I just finished In The Plex, a recent book about Google.
I enjoyed reading it. I am now considering creating a search engine. |
