mega thread What book are you reading?

[ssj4gogita4 101]

Currently reading Crazy Rich Asians series.

[Appley Hooves 136]

Beyond The Sea by David L Golemon. Surprisingly good for some kind of alternate history modern day thing, pity the library's only got two others of his out of this 12 book series 

[CandyCorn 428]

Nothing Lost by Gemma Lauren Krebs

It was a book I got at my anime convention. I met the author, and she signed it as well!

Just started Hothouse by Brian Aldiss. OMG it's weird ..

Hopefully all is explained at the end . . .

Typos

[Dreambiscuit 9,576]

Just finished Fellowship of the Ring and now I'm starting The Two Towers.

[Jordan D 149]

Just started on "Queen of the Black Coast". Trying to read a lot of  pulp stories from the 30s-60s. 

[Tropical Melody 6,031]

Just started Discworld #21, Jingo. (Have to say I enjoyed Hogfather very much, one of the "good ones".)

Also started The City Of The Sun by Brian M. Stableford. This is one of a series where 'inspectors' visit established other-world colonies to see how they're getting on and if they need any help. (Invariably they do!)

 

 

 

 

[Mellow Mane 5,931]

I just started reading Beren and Lúthien by Tolkien, I'm really enjoying it so far

[Oleks 1,993]

The Museum of Abandoned Secrets by Oksana Zabuzhko. One of the most stylistically peculiar novels I've ever read.

[Caligula 87]

"History of the Persian Empire" by A.T.Olmstead; "History of Ethiopia" by Andrzej Bartnicki; and "Ancient Egypt. Anatomy of a Civilisation" by Barry Kemp. Since my last message I've read also a few other interesting books - "L’Empire gréco-romain"  by Paul Veyne, essays about the cultural and social influence of Greeks on Rome; "Polis", by Hansen Mogens Herman, a short book about definition and meaning of ancient greek city-states; and a few others. 

[Fluttershutter 2,398]

Finally completing this series!

Little Women by Louisa May Alcott

I've seen the movie with Winona a dozen times and have loved it each time. So, I thought... why not read the book that started it all? <3

[Cynthia Mintwing 2,216]

Just began reading The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. I’m not into reading, but I’m reading this anyways since it’s part of my literature in English class and we’re learning about the 1920s.

[Tao 7,526]

A Centaur's Life

Its a manga, but I like it so far! 

[Discordian 6,015]

My friend got me into Warhammer 40k a couple years ago so it's all I've been reading lately. Right now finishing up the first Caiphus Cain omnibus. For a comedy series it has some deep characters who you grow pretty attached to. 

 

Next up I'll be reading Helsreach which also comes at high recommendation.

[Midnight Solace 5,132]

Does Fimfiction count? 

[Tao 7,526]

The Last Wolf

Its a werewolf romance type

[Discordian 6,015]

I don't see why not. It's still text-based storytelling.

Oh, ok. I thought it didn't because everypony else was talking about non-pony stuff. 

Well, right now I am reading Naked Singularity. There's so much weird stuff on here.

[CoconutCake 360]

Velocity by Dean Koontz.

[Tropical Melody 6,031]

Just finished Discworld #21, Jingo, #22, The Last Continent, next.

Also have just started Death Of A Dentist by M. C. Beaton.

Have also got The Beach,  (Alex Garland) which is supposed to be a cult classic.

 

[Caligula 87]

"Religions of slavs", by Dariusz Sikorski, about pre-christian beliefs of Slavic people. Quite interesting, and with lots and lots of informations about the work done by historians. 

[Oleks 1,993]

Finishing Snuff by Chuck Palahniuk. It's really what you'd expect form this author, although not as enjoyable as Fight Club. If you're underaged don't even google it.

Started The Blade Itself by Joe Abercrombie. It was highly recommended to me as "one of the greatest fantasy books", but I can't tell if it's true yet - the beginning is quite slow.

[Tao 7,526]

Witches of America by Alex Marr

Its a look into the pagan movement of the days before to the now.

[CandyCorn 428]

Nothing Lost by Gemma Lauren Krebs

I got this book at my anime convention this year, and I'm just now trying to read it.
