Mythodea
09.07.14 | Maybe, I don't know. I guess this could be a common question. Thanks akimbo for the rec. |

09.07.14 | I don't know of any but I would be very interested in one. Been writing a lot of things outside of the album reviews here. |

09.07.14 | writing reviews for books, now that's a task |
Mythodea
09.07.14 | Well, it would be interesting, no? Imagine searching for Stephen King. TAG: Horror, Thirller, Adventure... Description: A sick mind. Books: e.g. ''IT'' 4.2, ''Carrie'' 4.5... It's been on 3422 favorite lists. |
NorthernSkylark
09.07.14 | get started on that, and i promise to contribute. tho i would hate to put a rating on a book, it's somehow harder than for music and movies. |
Mythodea
09.07.14 | well, yes it is indeed. And an album or a movie will take about 1 to 3 hours to discover, a book will take about a day at least. And while it's easy to relisten to a cd or rewatch a movie several times, that can't be said about a book, especially when it's a bif one. |

09.07.14 | not sure if spunikbook is my thing but sputnikbook definitely sounds like my thing |
NorthernSkylark
09.07.14 | books take weeks to process for me, and i can't just read a book once. Also, i find that a good book never stays the same, it opens different doors everytime. so to come up with an absolute rating for something that constantly changes is sort of wierd. would love to try it tho |
Snake.
09.07.14 | let's start up an indiegogo campaign for sputnikmovies and sputnikgames, we'll raise enough money for mx to start those websites |
Mythodea
09.07.14 | I'm in. |

09.07.14 | Imagine Facebook for Sputnik members that would go over so swell |
MrSirLordGentleman
09.07.14 | We have the red-themed Sputikmusic, if we add a yellow-themed Sputnikbooks, a blue-themed Sputnikmovies and a green-themed Sputnikgames all of them working with the same format as this sputnik and where you can link accounts between the four sites, that day, I'll be happy |
sapient
09.07.14 | Good idea, I'd also like a sputnikgame site for videogames |

09.07.14 | Theres only so much pretentiousness that one website can take. |

09.08.14 | On the subject of books, I just finished Trainspotting and it's fantastic. |
Mythodea
09.08.14 | Currently I'm on two leviathans of literature, completely different from each other and I enjoy both. The one is Imagica , by Clive Barker and the other is The Story of Edgar Sawtelle, by David Wroblewski. Both excellent paradigms of the art. |

02.15.15 | Wow. The amount of users here who obviously can't handle reading a book is astounding. |
Mythodea
02.15.15 | @Eddie95 Yeah, I'm a member now. Thanks anyway, though!
@Spec Ignore trolls and imbeciles. |
Spec
02.15.15 | I would be so down to have a site with the same user interface as Sputnikmusic for books/movies/videogames. |
eddie95
02.15.15 | I would like one for beers, too. :/ |
Mythodea
02.15.15 | Exactly, you're both right!Sputnik is very organised and the community contributions are perfect, imo. |

Mythodea
02.15.15 | @Calc Why would you say that? What's pretentious about my comment, in response to another user's post about a book he read? |

always some good stuff here, people usually give you good recommendations if you ask |
Mythodea
02.15.15 | thanks for the link, but I have a really long catalogue of books I want to read...How's Fightclub? Any better than the movie? |
Tunaboy45
02.15.15 | So far it's great. The writing style is slightly weird, sometimes it's jumbled and it'll go back and forth between events, but you get used to it quickly. I'd recommend it. |
Mythodea
02.15.15 | Good, good. Will see if I can force it between others. |
