What Book Are You Reading? Issue.8

[downtown]

I couldn't finish the Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test. The book was fine, but I was just coming off being sick, and its just way too frantic for me right now.

I'm reading On The Road now. I can't believe I haven't read this before. It could be a game changer for me.

Just finished Perdido Street Station by China Miéville. One of the best fantasy books i've read in a while.

Liberal Fascism was stupid. Didn't bother finishing it.

I am just wrapping up The Dark Half by Stephen King, and I recently bought a copy of Best American Short Stories which of course is an anthology.

What do you think of it (1984)?

 

[Loppan Torkel]

Divina Commedia - Dante

I haven't got that far yet, there's enough of other, more boring stuff to read.

 

[Dachs]

Back to basics with Wedgwood's The Thirty Years' War...a classic.

I finished Erich Maria Remarque's All Quiet on the Western Front today. I can see why it's called "The Greatest War Novel of All Time."

Classy indeed. Solid book, though the most recent movie version was kinda meh, kinda good.

Some mafia book.

I don't think I mentioned this earlier, but I also read Eugene Burdick and Harvey Wheeler's Fail-Safe this past week. In fact, it only took me six hours to read the whole thing. What an incredible book.

I didn't ask for an online version of the book. I asked for that particular poster's online opinion of the book.

I'm reading Death Star, a Star Wars novel. Last week I read a large book on the history of medicine (The Greatest Benefit To Mankind), so I'm making up for it with a little leisure reading.
