I like it. This is the second time i've read it.

I think I read that a while ago, although I don't remember a lot about it. It did seem to be an interesting book, though.

I have read both Cannery Row and Miguel Street for my English Exam Project. Now I have to start working on a comparative analytical essay comparing the two... *sigh*

Re: Books!

Yeah, that's a great trilogy. Look at some Nancy Farmer books (House of the Scorpion, A Girl Named Disaster), and definitely check out The Catcher in the Rye.

Re: Books!

Have you read One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest? It's a great book.

Re: Books!

I just read Herbert Mason's version of Gilgamesh. It's awesome.

Re: Books!

*BUMP*

I read an amazing book called The Conquest of Paradise, about the ecological legacy of the invasion of the Americas. Pretty depressing, but very enlightening. It's particularly good at giving the reader an idea of the enormous differences between European and Native American worldviews (the Europeans being explicitly anti-nature, the natives being the opposite).

Right now, I'm starting Allen Ginsberg's The Fall of America and a translation of the Bhagavad Gita.

Re: Books!

I just bought the whole "Chronicles Of Narnia" series at a garage sale for 2 bucks.

Re: Books!

I can advise Joey Goebel. Last I read from him was Commonwealth, but the 2 other books are great as well.

Re: Books!

I'm currently reading An Utterly Impartial History of Britain (Or: 2000 Years of Upper Class Idiots in Charge). It's certainly dragging on, especially as I've bought some better books in the meantime. At the moment, I've read from the Romans through to the rather boring early 1800's. Hopefully it should get more interesting from 1914.

Re: Books!

Just finished whipping through all the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy books, and I loved them; however, I was kind of disappointed with the ending of the last book.

I hope Eoin Colfer does a good job with the next book, and doesn't add any nods to environmentalism, like he did in his last Artemis Fowl book.
