catching up on much needed leisure reading? :) ....me too! oh what will we dooo when school starts ='(
so i saw youre reading good omens? me too. what page are you on?
What's 'm'? And I second that manga thing. Even when I sit at the back, the people beside me always stare. Also, maybe she does. But in my defense, and I know it's not very good defense, but Bella sounded even worse. And you still read it (along with half the country). NO EXCUSE! (P.S. Kartik's hotter)
Well done! I'm gonna change my rating.. eventually. Also, thanks for sending that article, it was amusing and eye-opening. Well, at least a tad.
My bad. Well, seems like I don't have much of a choice, do I? Also, I like your rating system. Mine sucks, I feel bad putting a book lower then 4, unless it deserves it.
Also, Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, on your need-to-read shelf, now! Please! Kudos for the GaTB.
WIFE/HUSBAND! THANK YOU!I need to be near my actual shelf this weekend to complete my collection..
Well, I listed a few books, but I havn't read them all, these are just the ones I own. Of the ones listed I've read "This Immortal" which is considered one of his best and was pretty good. I've read "Damnation Alley" and it is also a short story, but the book has no philosophic value, it's just plain fun. "Four for Tomorrow", all four stories were great and "Unicorn Variations", I would say 70% of the stories were good, but a few didn't do much for me. I hear the collection "The Doors of his Face..." is really good. When I go to used bookstores, he's one author I look for, but sadly, most used stores don't have much. I found most of these books at a used bookstore in Kona, Hawaii, where I used to live. There, people would leave the island and would not want to pack all their books, so it was a haven for hard to find books. Most Hawaiians don't read sci-fi, so I went to town and got 100's of sci-fi books there for cheap, I mean, look at my shelf, I'm proud of it.
So, I'm gonna start the Amber books soon, but I have some other classic books by him that you may find used like "Lord of Light". But also check out "This Immortal", "Damnation Alley", "To Die in Italbar", "Eye of Cat" and "The Dream Master". You can also look for some short story collections like "Four for Tomorrow", "Unicorn Variations", "The Doors of his Face, the Lamps of his Mouth" and "The Defenders of Camelot". Hope that helps and thanks for your take on the Amber series.
