sfindependent Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 "Stuck" by Anneli Rufus & "The Art of Seduction" Robert Greene The book stuck is slow to start, mostly talking about history (i guess the writer is a history prof) but we'll see as time goes. "art of seduction" is mostly based on literary seduction and historical seduction. Useful to a certain extent but not too much. after this, i'll be reading "the lost art of listening" trying to be proactive with identifying my current lifestyle and behaviors of how i lead to my current heartbreak and how i can change that for future relationships.

KH26 Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 "Doors Open"- Ian Rankin... my boyfriend is obsessed. He was going to get rid of a lot of his books though so thought I'd rescue them! Link to comment
Anna. Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Anna, I just finished Water for Elephants, and loved it! A Discovery of Witches is also on my to-read list, I'm glad to hear that you liked it. I'm currently reading the Hunger Games and it's interesting so far. I keep hearing about Hunger Games. Is it really good? Link to comment

Lunaetick Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 I keep hearing about Hunger Games. Is it really good? So far I really like it! I am about half way through the second book in the trilogy. They are quick and easy reads, and there's a good deal of suspense which makes it a little hard to put down. Link to comment
Snowy Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn has to be one of the most boring books out there. Not because of the plot, but because of the language. Link to comment
maron Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Still reading A Study in Scarlet by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Long live the classic bromance of Holmes and Watson! Link to comment
Firiel Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn has to be one of the most boring books out there. Not because of the plot, but because of the language. Are you kidding? I thought Twain was beyond successful with his use of dialect in that book. I found it to be an excellent book! I'm currently reading The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson. Love it.

Yeah I have to read it for my english study at school. I just find it really boring, despite all the concepts conveyed in it. I'd rather just go on the net and read a summary. Page 90 is as far as I'd go in that book thank you very much. Link to comment

That's how I did it, and usually dialect is easier to understand verbally than when reading it from a page. 1 Link to comment

maron Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 I'm reviewing microbiology right now. Link to comment
imsuperman Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 An absolutely fantastic and widely-acclaimed book. I'm re-reading it a year after it came out and it's just as good. It's so descriptive, it makes you feel like you're actually in the Vietnam War. It's a work of fiction but was written by a vet. I cannot recommend it enough. image removed Link to comment
The Bee Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 I just finished reading Lonely Werewolf Girl by Martin Millar. I really liked his writing style, although it was a little hard to keep up with the ever-changing perspectives and characters since my lifestyle requires a really start-and-stop method of reading at the moment. I'm currently reading Grave Surprise by Charlaine Harris while I'm waiting for The Autobiography of Mark Twain vol. 1 to ship here. Link to comment
BellaDonna Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 ^ Love it! I have to read that and also Atlas Shrugged again. Link to comment
LostOne01 Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 I just finished reading The Killer by Tom Hinshelwood. Fantastic book and I highly recommend it for anyone to read it. What I am currently reading now on my desk is The Midnight House by Alex Berenson. Great book so far. Link to comment
Sanesoul Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 ^ Love it! I have to read that and also Atlas Shrugged again. I'm only 30% in (reading it on my Kindle), and I love it too. It pains me to put it down at night to get some sleep lol. I will be reading Atlas Shrugged when I'm done with this. Link to comment
