im not sure its available as e-book, but MAUS is really good, if youre into the Holocaust and all (its a biography of a survivor in comic form)
Might not be for you dogmeat, but Little Brother by Cory Doctorow is amazing. I spend 20$ on it before realizing it was available for free (legally) as an eBook on FeedBooks (on Stanza). Fully worth the purchase though, I highly recommend it.
read LOTF in middle school, still remember most of it, good book! Thanks for all the reccomendations all, I will organize them all into a list and let you know which one I'm reading first. Definitely thinking hitchhikers first though. I will prob read flatland tonight, since it touches on my belief that our dimension is just one of many.
Hitchiker's Guide was a bit too random and trying too hard to be funny IMO, but I can see why a lot of people like it. Try anything Sherlock Holmes, A Study in Scarlet is my favorite.
I got Flatland a while back, too. I need to finish it. Whole stack of books in my room... be back in a couple hours. Blasphemy! The wit! The dry, English wit! how could you not love it?!?!?!
I read at least one book a month so here's a recent selection from the Albie collection: The Girl Who Played with Fire Drood Level 26 (not intended for kids or immature adults) Bonebreaker (for those into steampunk) You may also want to check out anything by the author Jasper Fforde.
Thanks for the list. OP might enjoy Altered Carbon. I personally love Murakami. Hardboiled Wonderland and the End of the World is one of my favorites - beautiful, bizarre, imaginative, and otherworldly. There's two stories that run parallel to each other during the book - one in modern Japan, the other in an unknown, fantasy world. It all makes sense at the end. Someone should start a TA book club. I'd join!
Since you mentioned the inferno by daunte, did you see that commercial during the super bowl about a movie of it? I haven't read the book but is it anything like that?
Yeah I saw it, it was pretty sweet. What did you think of it? and as for the video game it's not being rated all too well like 7.0/10 from www.GameInformer.com I'll still play and then post some impressions when I get the chance to play it.... lol But, back to books! I'm not finished with the Divine comedy but, to me, a MUST read! Inferno is so badass!
Well if the book is anything like the movie commercial, I'll read it. Looked so freakin epic then I saw "Daunte's inferno" and I'm like yeah right, I thought daunte wrote a comedy, not this sick ass shit.
Lol well the game is based off of the Inferno section so Yeah its pretty damn good lol! kinda hard to read since it's an Epic Poem-ish book. I do believe the superbowl ad was for the game not a movie but idk thats just me lol I do know they have an animated movie out it looks pretty cool.
Yeah I definitely recommend! the Divine comedy book in its entirety is roughly 550 pgs. or so and inferno is only around 100-150 idk exactly lol. But, like I said i'd recommend reading the Full book! gives you a better understanding.
Do you mean Boneshaker? I'm picking away at it now. It's pretty good. Hitchhiker's also gets my vote. I liked the movie somewhat as well, but someone mentioned before the British miniseries is worth a look too. World War Z gets my whole-hearted endorsement. The Graveyard Book was an alright recent read. I'm not sure I care for Gaiman all that much though. I'm going to have to jot some of the other recommendations down for my future use. Thanks all.
