 @tianeidI hope they are. I'm currently reading the Don Quijote one. Many pretty pictures. x) Well I study german at uni, so history books on the third reich + a whole bunch of short stories and a novel for literature class.

@tianeidWell the history theme is definitely interesting, but not all the literature is as exciting. And thanks.

@tianeidLol, they really don't do they. xD So far we've only had one book I really liked, and that was one I'd read before. The ones we have this semester are bit more bleh. Realism.  I'm having higher hopes for this next one though. It's supposed to be a take on Romeo and Juliet.

@tianeidNo fancy novels? Speaking on buying books, this one is just lying in the university book store taunting me. But it's kind of expensive. ;-;

 __________ Recently purchased 4 books like a week or 2 ago? Slowly getting through them. I'm a slow yet avid reader. Covet by J.R. Ward Game of Thrones by George R.R. Martin (I wanted to see what all the fuss was about....) Plus I got 2 volumes of the Assassin's Creed books... I believe they're based on the game for those who can't play them... like myself. (I don't have the author's name handy)

@tianeidI guess. Mainly it's because we read 'All quiet on the western front' and my group, who were supposed to give a presentation on it, we used that book for reference, because it pretty much gives an exact opposite view of the war. I seem to like books about WW1.

@tianeidI never did. =/ Sure it was interesting but it wasn't really me. Now I do like it, though I'm still no good at it. x(

@HeiligI kind of feel the same way for Game of Thrones (and many others like it). I sort of want to know what the fuss is all about. @tianeid I do too, when I have time.

@tianeidThis semester is especially bad, because or literature course is on realism. And they didn't write a lot of poems during that period. x)

@tianeid I buy too many books  I ordered Farenheit 451 and Brave New World from amazon a while ago, and they should be arriving soon. I also have Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close and The Lake of Dreams, although I can't remember the authors' names.I got a kindle recently and I have two sci-fi anthologies and another book called Cyberdrome on there And finally for college I have A Streetcar Named Desire, although technically I have to give it back when I leave in a few months *reminds self to read all these books before buying any more*

@Paradigm oh i loved Farenheit 451 it was so good
i hope you enjoy it

| #27 :: March 20th, 2012 @ 1:12 AM | |
| Opus The Gourmand 1,564 Posts 997 Achievements |
@tianeidI think so, yes. @Paradigm Fahrenheit 451 is definitely worth reading. And I never really figured out what A Streetcar Named Desire was about. Didn't read it, but my spanish teacher in high school mentioned it so many times.

@tianeid 1984 is one of my favourite books, and I've heard it's somewhat similar to that so I'm hoping I'll enjoy it @Opus plot-wise I'm not so sure either as we're not very far into it, but as far as I can tell it focuses on themes of gender and class Books are never as fun when you have to go through and analyse them haha

I re-purchased The Less Dead by April Lurie - I lost it last year, but I absolutely adore this book. And I would recommend it to anyone who likes twisted endings. Some people might see it so far ahead, but I sure as heck didn't!

@ParadigmSo true. When you have to think about just about every piece of punctuation it's not as interesting.

The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake by Aimee Bender The Psychopath Test by Jon Ronson The Uses of Enchantment by Bruno Bettelheim Kurt Cobain: The Journals and a few others from charity shops that I can't remember the titles of. I should really stop buying books because I still have easily 10+ in my "to read" pile. >__<;;

@Paradigm i have 1984. i just haven't read it yet. a lot of my friends had to read it for english class but they had a different teacher than i had and i never had to read it.
@Haze oh i've been wanting to read The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake. tell me if its any good please @Opus i have cousins that are part German. i don't think they know any German though

@HazeSame here. I have way too many books lying around wanting to be read. (movies too, needing to be watched) @tianeid Hehe. Well Germany is our neighbouring country so we learn the language at school. I decided I liked it so I took it in high school, and now in uni as well.

I'll try and remember to let you know (although I doubt I'll be starting it for a while)! It was a bit of an impulse buy if I'm honest, but the concept seems interesting... hopefully I'll enjoy it. (: @Opus Ahh I'm the same with movies! I still have ones needing to be watched that I bought like two years ago. It's silly really because it's not like I don't have the free time - I just have terrible concentration and I can rarely focus on them (same with books. I miss the days when I could read non-stop for 5+ hours!).

@HazeI don't think any of mine are that old. But some of them even still have the plastic wrapping around them. My main problem with the dvd's though, is that my dvd player doesn't work properly and I really can't concentrate while watching a movie on my computer.

I got 'Cold Mountain' by Charles Frazier, 'Boomsday' by Christopher Buckley, and 'Ghost Walk' by Heather Graham. Idk I go to a Goodwill for a lot of my books so I don't really go with a ~list in mind~ of what books I want, but I'm hoping they're good... Cold Mountain is pretty good so far.
@Paradigm I really want to read 1984!! It's definitely on my list of to-reads if I ever get around to it
