Donovan79 Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Fifty Shades of Grey- E. L. James Coworker gave me that to read. Addictive but holy crap, Miss Steel, I murmured, my inner goddess did backflips about how awful the writing was. Link to comment

Snny Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 The Mortal Instruments series. I finished the Hunger Games series twice and always found new stuff in it. Link to comment
Grace696 Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Bring Up the Bodies by Hilary Mantel - sequel to Wolf Hall. So, so good. So creepy and brilliantly written. As someone trying to write myself, there are times when I have to put down the book and wail because she's expressed something so perfectly and how the hell am I ever going to do that. Firiel, your research sounds interesting! Link to comment

Roxie84 Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 "The Ethical ****" - it explains why humans are not meant to be monogomous creatures. I threw it accross the room in anger, yet I'm still reading lol Link to comment
Tom_Bombadil Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 "Fire Bringer" by David Clement Davies. If you like books like "Watership Down", "Redwall", "Ga'Hoole", or "Warriors", then you'll probably like this one. Link to comment
ConfusedVirgin Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 "The Ethical ****" - it explains why humans are not meant to be monogomous creatures. I threw it accross the room in anger, yet I'm still reading lol if there is anything I can't stand, it's cynical narcisists telling me how were really "animals" who "were never meant to be monogomous". I don't know why it pisses me off so much. I'll literally feel a strong urge to punch them in the face if it's a real life interaction. Link to comment
Coconut Twin Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Borrowed this book from my dad.. Smile or Die: How Positive Thinking Fooled America and the World by Barbara Ehrenreich Powerful and thought provoking...my eyes were so wide open after reading this. She talks about blind positivity - she mentions the recession caused by the mortgage crisis because people believed they could take out unrealistic loans and everything would be okay... This book made me think about the saying most of us don't live by anymore - 'Hope for the best but prepare for the worst'. Like to prepare for the worst is to allow negative feelings to enter the brain. (GASP!). Just a fascinating book and I recommend to all! Will open those eyes But if you don't have cynical bone in your body, maybe stay clear of it lol Link to comment
