[TenorSounds 831]

Last week I finished the new Mercy Thompson book, Night Broken. I love that series.

 

I also decided to re-read the Redwall books and I'm about a third through the first book, Redwall, right now.

[Digit 321]

So far the only assigned book for school i've ever liked

That's a pretty interesting book, i gotta admit.

That's a pretty interesting book, i gotta admit. 

That was the book John Lennon's killer drew inspiration from to kill him.

[Khaoios 1,970]

That was the book John Lennon's killer drew inspiration from to kill him.

 

I remember hearing that from my class.   Yet, there was another individual who had the same view, but can't remember his name.

[Overdrive 5,366]

The killer's name? Mark David Chapman

[Khaoios 1,970]

The killer's name? Mark David Chapman

 

Not him, (yet i already know he was the one who shot John in NYC), but there was another individual in the late 50's, that was in Washington D.C. 

[Banul 3,831]

I've been rereading Game of Thrones

I enjoy its political tones

 

Last new book I read was Doctor Sleep

Stephen King's stories are never cheap

[Philosopher Pone 108]

"Brave New World" by Aldous Huxley. Thought-provoking and interesting in comparison with "1984" as two anti-utopian visions of future.

[Jeric 46,837]

I ... Love .... That .... Book!

 

The end with the cap. Older Holden narrating with a different perspective from his youthful self.

I always recommend The Stand to a writer trying to find out who to create a large cast of memorable characters.

[The Seventh Octave 26]

I have recently read Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451. Quite a saddening book, yet it says quite a bit to say about our society. I would highly suggest reading it if you have not done so.

 

One of the most vital points the story made was how people like to turn their heads away from the horrible parts of life. However, if you never face your enemies or your struggles, they will eventually destroy you. But the destruction of humanity does not bring about our downfall. We are like phoenixes. We rise out of the ashes of the fires that we lit and start a new. Unlike phoenixes, we can learn from our mistakes and do things to prevent us from being engulfed in the flames once more. 

[Overdrive 5,366]

Book recommendation, if you haven't read it yet: Slaughterhouse Five. I was required to read it my senior year, but it's actually an entertaining book.

Omg ray Bradbury Halloween tree is one of my absolute faviorte books and he did an amazing job with the screenplay.

[Khaoios 1,970]

Im half way through COLE Protocol, but i have to ask, did anyone understand the book "1984".

[Malinter 3,064]

A warhammer 40k book called "Blood of Asahiem"

[Khaoios 1,970]

Finally finished, COLE Protocol..........now on to Evolutions.

I finished the Fellowship of the Ring a couple of days ago, and i'm on the Two Towers now. I'm a pretty fast reader. It's really good so far. After the Two Towers i'll be on the Return of the King and then I really want to get started on either Les Miserables or Game of Thrones. Then after one of those i'm gonna tackle War and Peace. Thankfully I've read FO:E and FO:E - PE which are both longer than W&P, so I think i'm good. And I really just want to get a good book to hit people in the head with i do that with every book i've ever known, they are excellent to hit your friends over the head with when you're annoyed

Such a classic story, thus one of my favorites

@,

 

Which one, LOTR?

 

If so, then it's an amazing story, i'm really interested in it. My current favorite character is Legolas, followed by Arwen, followed by Gollum.

I just finished reading "The Godwulf Manuscript" (1973) by Robert B. Parker. It's the first in over thirty Spenser mystery novels. Here's a line that knocked me right out of the book and started me giggling.

"I poured the coffee and brought out some applejack and two pony glasses."
- Spenser P.I.

 

 

Good Golly! Spenser is a Brony!
LOL!

Just a bit of Game of Thrones...I can't believe i didn't find out about this sooner...

[GrauWitz 1,010]

I've finished To Kill a Mockingbird last week. Not the best book I've read, but still pretty good overall
