NT, What Are You Reading? Vol. 2010

[wawaweewa]

Smooth flowing narrative. Quick and to the point.

 

[blacksheep08]

This is a serious question, do people still get flagged for having books of certain genres?

[nawth21]

Summer of Night - Dan Simmons. I love this book. One of these years I'll get around to non fiction

 

[south sole]

Just completed "Walden" - Henry David Thoreau
But to start "Atheist Delusions" - David Bentley Hart

Anybody have an eReader? Thoughts on Kindle vs. Nook? Maybe even iPad?

I have the Sony PRS-505.

If you're looking for strictly an e-reader, the Sony's are the way to go imo. I'd also recommend the Ectaco jet Book Lite if you want a good sub $125 reader.

I don't think that's what he meant. Lolita is one of the most well-known books of the last century.

 

[blacksheep08]

Yeah I'm talking about so called "Red Literature". I know certain books we banned at one point I just want to know what kinds.

I read that book this year. I had to take my time and actually remember previous events.

But now I'm reading, Rich Dad, Poor Dad which i started yesterday and i should finish by today & I'm starting Life of Pi next week.

What did you think of Rich Dad, Poor Dad? I finished it recently after a friend's recommendation but I find some of the "mind over money" methods are a bit outlandish and unrealistic

 

[jordan supreme]

But, that was the funny.

I haven't read in a while, any recommendations? Really open to any book that's well written, funny, fun, whatever.

 

[shaunhillftw49]

Mick Foley's 2nd autobiography.
