NT, What Are You Reading? Vol. 2010

[klasssickfresh 87]

Almost done reading this. I had no idea so much drama went on with the Gucci family. Crazy how it seems like a fiction novel yet it's all real.

I haven't watched the movie yet, but the book was excellent. The buildup toward the ending was fantastic.

Whoever wrote the screenplay for the movie is a genius. It was unreal. Everything about the movie was just phenomenal.

I just started reading The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. Pretty good so far.

BTW, I recommend everyone in this thread reads The Laughing Man by J.D. Salinger. It's an 18 page short story, but it's awesome and the substory in it is insane.

Yeah, I've heard good things about Drown. I just want to give it some time before I read another Junot Diaz book. I like switching up the authors every time I pick up a new book. I wanted to get Sag Harbor but it's not available at my local Barnes & Noble until June 15th (Also happens to be Drake's TML's release date

). I'm thinking I might read The Kite Runner next.

as long as you aren't trying to convert people, it's all love.

 

[danikerhino]

Tom Clancy: EndWar

I'm almost done with that though, itching to get World War Z though. I swear, books are one of the most underrated forms of entertainment these days. I want at least 20 books at the moment.

Wow, I've never noticed this thread.

I'm currently splitting myself between catching up on books I never read in high school literature classes, books I've always wanted to read, and books friends have recommended.

Recently finished reading The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde and Catcher In The Rye by J.D. Salinger.

Currently reading Brave New World by Aldous Huxley and The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald.

In the queue: Alice's Adventures In Wonderland and Through The Looking Glass by Lewis Carroll, Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro, The Unbearable Lightness of Being by Kundera, Brief Interviews With Hideous Men by David Foster Wallace, and Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman by Haruki Murakami.
