Keyblade 09.17.13	Not sure if that's sarcasm dude, but I found his writing style to be kinda meh. Damn good storyteller tho, and I need to pick the series back up someday
Keyblade 09.17.13	Bro Dune is my fav book ever, check it hard

menawati 09.17.13	try some Iain Banks - Wasp Factory is a good place to start
Dunwich 09.17.13	Boris Pahor - Necropolis if you're into Holocaust. Heavy stuff Vladimir Bartol - Alamut; The book served as an inspiration for Assassin's Creed series Christiane F - Wir Kinder Vom Bahnhof Zoo; if you can get your hands on english translation or whatever language you speak, you should definitely pick it up. It's a real account of teenage junkies from 70's West Berlin. Bleak as death. One of the best books I've read.

reportingbird 09.17.13	sputnik sweetheart by haruki murakami

SmersH 09.17.13	"Also reading A Song Of Ice And Fire atm, the most vivid and beautiful prose ever" - well that's a bit worrying to see someone write. Anyway, check out: Glamorama by Bret Ellis or, Tropic of Cancer by Henry Miller great stuff -- vivid/beautiful prose and whatnot. Also Dune [4]

EaglesBecomeVultures 09.17.13	dave eggers is boring as fuck
demigod! 09.17.13	shut up hipster
MosesMalone 09.17.13	Choke by Chuck Palahniuk(I don't know how to spell his name) was pretty great. Although having read that, seen Fight Club, and not having read any other of his works, I worry that his narrative style is completely homogenous across all of his novels. But I also barely ever read so who cares?
DikkoZinner 09.17.13	Confederacy of Dunces
TheVermMaremagnum 09.17.13	Cloud atlas of david mitchell is a good book, also check Things Fall Apart,Le Père Goriot and The Stranger rules hard. And Eagles is fuckin ghey.
EaglesBecomeVultures 09.17.13	also don't listen to anyone that recommends palahniuk
SmersH 09.17.13	"also don't listen to anyone that recommends palahniuk" this. unless you're 14 or still think catcher in the rye is a good book.
MosesMalone 09.17.13	Well fuck you too.
DikkoZinner 09.17.13	& stay away from Atlas Shrugged
xAshtrayux 09.18.13	The Witcher series. Amazing stuff.
gypsyrick 09.18.13	House of Leaves.
Masochist 09.18.13	"Flowers For Algernon - Daniel Keyes" [2] My go-to book recommendation, and one of my all-time favorites. Also: Terry Pratchett/Neil Gaiman - "Good Omens" Anything by Isaac Asimov
Minus. 09.18.13	Check out Chuck Palahniuk's stuff. Notable books are Choke, Fight Club, Survivor, and Invisible Monsters. His books are so fucked up.

EaglesBecomeVultures 09.18.13	lolol
NapalmCrusader 09.18.13	Thanks a lot for the recs guys. :D
DikkoZinner 09.18.13	The Count of Monte Cristo. The best book you'll ever read.
NapalmCrusader 09.18.13	I read it like 5 years ago for an elective in the univeristy. Very good book
DikkoZinner 09.18.13	Yep a challenge but well worth it.
NapalmCrusader 09.19.13	When a book is a pleasent work the length is a minor issue
LambsBread 09.19.13	It's on here twice already, but seriously: NINETEEN EIGHTY FOUR BY GEORGE ORWELL will change your life. It is consistently ranked as second on polls of "what was teh most influential book in your life' behind the Bible. Truly makes every other book I've read seem kinda pointless.
LambsBread 09.19.13	Far less enterataining (it is one of the first sociology books ever written, but its short, 75 pagesish. but close to as eye opening. The Crowd by Lebon Seriosuly will change the way you think about everything. It details the process by where (virtually all) humans think with crowd psychology and don't even activate their critical thinking faculties. Literally explains everything from why people followed religion to begin with to how people are duped by propaganda today. You honestly will look at nearly everyone as a dumbass sheep after reading this.
Cormano 09.19.13	what's this? a thread without cygnatti? good to know that annoying cunt doesn't read or pretends to try any short story by Jorge Luis Borges, right know I'm trying to get on to some stories by Cortazar and a couple books by Garcia Marquez but school is biting my scrotum
LambsBread 09.19.13	^HITLER, the biggest deceiver in modern memory, credits that book for his success in mass manipulation and mass lying.
NapalmCrusader 09.19.13	I'm trying to get on to some stories by Cortazar and a couple books by Garcia Marquez but school is biting my scrotum Garcia Marquez has some cool stories, Chronicle of a Death Foretold and 100 years of solitude are the most famous ones. In my hometown ( Colombia ) is mandatory to read in high school those 2 books, which are very good and well constrcuted. Maybe you will find enjoyable Love in the Time of Cholera and Autumn of the Patriarch
Zorc2222 09.19.13	The Medicus is a awesome book ;)
MeatSalad 09.19.13	Maus I+II
osmark86 09.19.13	^Don DeLillo innit? either way, White Noise by the same man is a good read. if you want to torture yourself I've heard Finnegan's Wake is an unpleasant ride.
LocustGrove 09.19.13	what's this? a thread without cygnatti? good to know that annoying cunt doesn't read or pretends to Sounds like you have a tight squeeze on his nuts.
osmark86 09.19.13	eat a sedative and enjoy the view.
Cormano 09.19.13	Maybe you will find enjoyable Love in the Time of Cholera haha that's actually one I'm trying to finish didn't realize you were colombian I can imagine why those books are mandatory though, I'll get around to the other 2 you mentioned
Cormano 09.19.13	"Sounds like you have a tight squeeze on his nuts." he's my best friend
Epitome 09.19.13	"he's my best friend" does he know that?
