menawati 02.25.14	sharpe novels, lots of derring-do
Trebor. 02.25.14	High Fidelity
KILL 02.25.14	fuck all
mandan 02.25.14	I'm a huge history buff so I'm currently reading Walter LaFeber's Inevitable Revolutions: The United States in Central America. Other books are basically in the waiting list.
ILJ 02.25.14	Just finished the Stand, took several weeks. Going to finally read Of Mice and Men. After that, no idea.
Ending 02.25.14	Rereading A Wrinkle In Time because last time I read it was when I was around 11 and I couldn't wrap my head around it, and I was curious to see what it'd be like now that I think I can better understand it. Pretty enjoyable. Read House of Leaves if you get the chance. Interesting book written interestingly.
menawati 02.25.14	"the Stand" - that reminds me, they were going to do a tv series based on his gunslinger dark tower series dunno what happened with that
TheArkitecht 02.25.14	@menawati my brother is massively into them, they are on my list to eventually read.
Snake. 02.25.14	The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (without reading Tom Sawyer :\|)
Judio! 02.25.14	reading As You Like It right now. Great play, probably my second favorite Shakespeare comedy.
Mad. 02.25.14	Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, but very slowly...
menawati 02.25.14	"A Wrinkle In Time" funny i read that too again recently, i never realised as a kid it was all about anti-communism
TheArkitecht 02.25.14	Dark Tower series was fucking glorious. Though I'm not sure it would translate to a series well.
wacknizzle 02.25.14	On The Road by Jack Kerouac for the 2nd time in a row. Great book, lots of talk about pretty girls, listening to jazz, drinking and getting stoned
Deathconscious 02.25.14	The Waste Lands, third book in the Dark Tower series.
TheArkitecht 02.25.14	@JudioRuso I haven't touched Shakespeare since school, inbuilt hatred of him now unfortunately.
TheArkitecht 02.25.14	@AdolfChrist fantastic read.
Ryus 02.25.14	The Road. by Cormac McCarthy.
Judio! 02.25.14	Dude Shakespeare is amazing. His plays are just enjoyable, even if school tries to make him boring as fuck.
ILJ 02.25.14	""the Stand" - that reminds me, they were going to do a tv series based on his gunslinger dark tower series dunno what happened with that" that would be amazing, but it would also be hard to pull off.
TheArkitecht 02.25.14	@JudioRuso I may give him another go some day, what would you recommend? School also ruined War of The Worlds for me, but I ended up re-reading it in my free time and loved it.
NordicMindset 02.25.14	the curious incident of the dog in the night time
AliW1993 02.25.14	I'm currently reading an excellent R.E.M. biography called Perfect Circle. I tend not to read fiction, but High Fidelity is one of my all-time favourites.
YankeeDudel 02.25.14	A Short History of Nearly Everything by Bill Bryson. Good ish.
TheArkitecht 02.25.14	I have the unfortunate tendency to read nothing but fantasy.
Mort. 02.25.14	Plato's Republic for my philosophy course. its erm, ok I guess
Ending 02.25.14	I feel like TKaM and Crime & Punishment would've been awesome if school didn't ruin them for me. Even going back to TKaM I can't fully enjoy it because I have repressed memories of slaving over meaningless essays bouncing back up every other paragraph.
ArsMoriendi 02.25.14	"Wonderful album to program to or generally do study or work." Exactly.
ZombicidalMan 02.25.14	My Name is Red and a fuck ton of archaeology books
destinysManchild 02.25.14	Currently re-reading R.A. Salvatore's 'The Companions' in anticipation of the first book in his next trilogy (or saga) 'The Companions Codex: Book 1 - Night of the Hunter'. Probably close to book 30 in a long-running fantasy series which I am fully up to date on. However, only about 50% of his work passed the test on my second read-through begging the question of lasting appeal. The books I do plan to keep re-reading are awesome though.
menawati 02.25.14	the only books i ever re-read are moorcocks eternal champion stuff, maybe thats a bit sad but hey
Shuyin 02.25.14	junk, record of the last hero. vol. 7 was a pretty meh series tbh, great story but not much character development.
avonbarksdale221 02.25.14	just read the name of the wind by patrick rothfuss, high quality fantasy series.
witchxrapist 02.25.14	I read the first book of that, I need to get on the rest. I need to get more books in general, hopefully getting this job printing shirts though sooooo fuck yeah.

SharkTooth 02.26.14	"more like a legendary progressive tech dm group decided to shed all the tech dm and not awful modern fair to midland or whatever the queef prog from its music" Actually they wanted to go jazz fusion, as you can tell it's no King Crimson (formatting glitches can kiss my ass)

TinaPalmer1997 02.26.14	Divergent, but none of you probably have read it because I think you guyus only read weird books like I haven't heard of ANY of these.
BMDrummer 02.26.14	Johnny Got His Gun by Dalton Trumbo. One by Metallica is based off of it.
