Labyrinth by Kate Mosse

Just Finished Reading "Paradise Lost" by John Milton, because it's on my course.

Reaction? OH, MY, GOD, THIS BOOK IS INCREDIBLE.

"LSD - My Problem Child" by Dr. Albert Hofmann

Ken Kesey's One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest. It's better than the movie but it's impossible to think of McMurphy as anyone other than Jack Nicholson.

Afraid I'll have to agree to disagree with you there, I think they're equally good.

adonis

lunar park by bret easton ellis

very good

Scratch Acid

-House of Leaves. I'm only 120 pages or so in but I'm completely immersed.

-Sons and Lovers by D.H. Lawrence. Pretty neat so far.

That's weird...a buddy of mine said the exact same thing to me last week when we were discussing this book. :v:

Cosmic Trigger - Volume 3 by Robert Anton Wilson.

Brilliant, but not quite as good as the previous two.

Feu

Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell - Susanna Clarke.

I'm not a big fantasy/whatever reader but the characters are very interesting and the scene is set very well

Just finished them - interesting books, bit fussy in places, and fairly inconclusive ending imo.

Fresh take on a fantasy setting though.

I'm finally starting Chaos by James Gleick, lol I've been meaning to read it for yonks but only got around to it now

John

I'm reading the John Peel book Margrave of the Marshes.

Just finished Saturday by Ian McEwan. Very good.

Any recommendations?

Nimrod's Son

Just started Ecstasy by Irvine Welsh. It's taken him about 6 pages to broach the rather taboo subject of necrophilia! He's a sick bastid but a great writer all the same.

Demetrius

Incompetnce by Rob Grant. Very funny book. I highly recommend it

Dades

I'm finally there... A Feast For Crows (George RR Martin).

Man, that book is a pain to lug on and off the train every day.

The Pyrates! by George McDonald Fraser

It's like every pirate story you've ever wanted mixed into one, completely historically innaccurate, but hilariously quirky and Monty-Python-esque at times, the characters (characitures!) are cliched and over the top, but they're all balanced out and their adventures never let up throuout the book.
This should so be made into a movie, it's got movie cues in it and everything (like when the author suggests what kind of music to use, and what kind of camera shot to use)

Because I'm an idiot, I'm juggling between reading several different books at the same time. They are:

Chaos at the Crossroads by Frank MacDonald and James Nix.
The Secret Life of Tony Cascarino by Tony Cascarino and Paul Kimmage.
A Drink With Shane MacGowan by Some Woman.
Farewell to Arms by Ernest Hemingway.

Nimrod's Son

Starting the latest Ross O'Carroll-Kelly.

Joe - is 'A star called Henry' any good?

Im reading 'American Psycho' by Brett Easton -Ellis it took me a while to get into it but Im hooked now I just love the main characters mad way of thinking.

keevita

a star called henry, i read that when i was younger. wasnt very impressed. but then again, its so different to his other books... and im sure id appreciate it much more now that i'm older with four years of english lit in college behind me. reading the shadow of the wind by carlos ruiz zafón at the moment, also without my cloak by kate o brien and non ti muovere (dont move) by margatet mazzantini

Is that the R. Doyle book set in the early 20th century? if so I liked that a lot.

I've finished Clive Cussler's Black Wind, not his best but there's flashes of goodness sandwiched in between the chapters of crud that I'm blaming on his co-writing son.

Started reading "A Tale of Two Cities" by Charley D. Only read the first three chapters last night. The scene setting is stunning.

John

Re-reading The Hobbit

BossArky

The Great Gatsby - F.Scott Fitzgerald.

dudara

"Cloud Atlas" by David Mitchell. Really reminds me of Margaret Atwood's writing for some reason, but I am enjoying it.

Kraken

david gremmel blood stone and angel tower storm tad williams. good books all in all.

pukey

"jupiters travels" by ted simon. good so far

BossArky

Read "The Little Prince" today, and then started "Catch-22".

secret_squirrel

The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fforde. Completely bonkers in a very absurdist kind of way. Very funny.

I might check that book out, sounds intriguing...

Currently reading Everything is Illuminated by Safran Foer. I'm really enjoying it, very funny at times.
