Re: The Last Book You Read, etc, etc

I felt absolutely nothing for either of the characters, and the story had no drive to it—Though everyone I talked to said it was one of the most emotionally heart-ripping books they'd read. I guess I saw something different in it?

Eh some people are more capable of empathy than others...

I just read Aaron Allston's book Backlash, and since he had a major heart attack and a quadruple bypass... it felt like he was in a hurry to get it finished before a deadline...

But thankfully he's not dead and now he can keep writing... like a slave... and have som'more CHEESE'N FRIES! Hyuck!

I just finished reading A Streetcar Named Desire. I liked it. I really like books that act out as plays, and this book has a movie for it so I'll be watching it in class on Tuesday and compare/contrast both of them.


I just hate that the version of the book I have has a cover of a shirtless guy.

Last book ive read was called "Never Let Me Go". I read it for english class a few years ago. Was about farming humans for organs or something, LOL.

My favorite book would have to be the hobbit. Read it in 5th grade and it was instantly a classic to me. Im also a fan of the dark elf novels. I guess im into medieval fantasy if im going to sit down and be entertained by a book

I'm reading many books currently. Mainly The Dawn (Nietzsche) and Critique of Pure Reason (Kant).
Does it make me a cool person.

I don't think I've finished reading a book in 5 years. It's really, really sad. Most recent book I've read most of is Making Money by Terry Pratchet. I think I did read all of Jessica Sachs' non-fiction book, Good Germs Bad Germs, but I'm not entirely certain.

Last book I read was Carrie by Stephen King and I'm currently reading is Cujo, also by Stephen King. My favorite out of all of the books that I read would be The Fountainhead by Ayn Rynd (If that's how you spell her name correctly...).

Re: The Last Book You Read, etc, etc

Streetcar was quite good. But a play, not a book. technicalities.

I went through quite a Stephen King phase. Though I didn't really like Carrie at all. I would say my favorite was The Tommyknockers. Right next to The Stand.

Crime and Punishment is one of my favorites. I'm working on The Brothers Karamazov right now. Dostoevsky really knows how to write.
