Finished Anna Karenina. Hands down best book I've ever read. I would start to read and feel tired sometimes, just to realize that I already read 30 pages or something.

Already ordered War and Peace, also by Tolstoy. While waiting for delivery I'll read The Process by Kafka, along with some of his short stories.


Not sure if The Process and The Trial are the same story but I have read The Trial and it is incedible. I too loved Anna Karenina but I struggled with War and Peace. It becomes very philosophical at times and for about 100 pages is almost devoid of any story and seems to be almost a rant. I finished it but didnt enjoy large parts of it. Anna Karenina is a much better novel than War and Peace. My two cents

I mispelled, it is "The Trial". Here in Brazil "Der Prozess" is translated as "O Processo" which means "The Process".

Also yeah from what I've heard "War and Peace" is not as fluid as "Anna Karenina". But I really liked the last part of the latter, which is mostly philosophical rambling by Levin, so I guess I'm gonna enjoy it.

Another exceedingly dry book, I really don't know why I even started reading it.

[image loading]

I read over 60% of this book, and finally decided to give it up as well. I've really enjoyed Stephenson's previous works like Snow Crash, and to a lesser extent, The Diamond Ages. This book is excruciatingly long at over 1000 pages, and there were just passages after passages about irrelevant events that neither add anything to character development nor drive the plot forward. As a native speaker of Mandarin Chinese, I found the random Chinese phrases and names (loads of those) in the book as gimmicky nuisances, as they served no purposes other than to appeal to the 'nerdy' crowd who'd perchance find random Chinese phrases fascinating and chic.

The story itself was decent, but the book was just too long and uninteresting for the most part.

Mao's Great Famine

So far so good, I've always had a keen interest in North Korean and Chinese histories.

Mao's Great Famine
[image loading]

This was initially really interesting, but then it read too much like a history/fact book than a novel. The author only had a handful of sources and stories, and he kept on re-using these same examples to proof different points under different section of the book. I did learn a lot about modern Chinese history, of a period I've only heard stories of. While this book only offered one opinion, it did broaden my perspective, and made me realize how lucky I -- nay, China as a whole -- was that China did not turn out to be like North Korea.

While I was reading this book, I read a ton of wikipedia articles on the same topic, which interestingly frequently cited this book.

Strongly recommended for those who wish to learn more about 'the Great Leap Forward'.

The Mao book was too dark, need something that pull me away from reality for a while... I might finish the entire series if the this one proves to be captivating enough.

Okay, that was a great read. There were a lot of times when I couldn't put the book down until I had finished the whole chapter (and those are long, since there are only six of them).

I enjoyed the different writing styles, but, at times, the style would seem really contrived, and obviously not something the author is used to write.

Some of the stories were a lot better than the others, but overall, it was a very pleasant read.

i got to the poet's story and i havent kept going since....idk man so far while a bit interesting the books seems a bit tedious at times. Do the stories get significantly better or is it the same quality as its been up until the poet story? I heard fall of hyperion is even more tedious lol....sorta discouraging.


Poet was filled with references to John Keats, and random poems, none of which I really understood. I think his part was supposed to partially cover the origin of the Shrike, and it is intentionally confusion and abstract.

The parts after the Poet are the Scholar, Detective and Consul. The Scholar's tale is probably most touching; Detective, most informative about hyperion; Consul, most well-written.

My favourite part is probably still the first chapter, that really reminded me Speaker for the Dead for some reason, a book I read ten years ago.

There's like..15 books in the Ender Universe. The Speaker for the Dead and Xenocide are not as good as Game, imo. But check out Ender's Shadow and the other Bean books, they are very good.


When I read the books, I felt like I was reading two different series within the same world. Speaker, Xenocide, and Children of the Mind seemed really different from Ender's Game, and the Shadow books. For those who really like Ender's Game, you'll probably like the Shadow Quartet, since its written in a similar style. Speaker for the Dead, Xenocide, and Children of the Mind, are written much more similarly to some of Card's older books, like Songmaster. I personally liked those stories, but most people don't. The new prequel trilogy involving Earth, is somewhat in between in style.

So I finished Hyperion yesterday as well. I would recommend it to anyone who likes Sci-Fi and it is a step above the other sci-fi that I have read (admittedly I haven't read a lot).

The stories are really varied and fleshes out this universe so well. It's a love letter to the future & space and is a wonderful portrayal of how the human spirit/whatever might adapt to these new problems in the future. I really enjoyed all the stories but the Consul's story bought a tear to my eye and the Scholar's story was a tragedy the likes of which I've never read. These two stood out to me. The rest of the book is amazing. Skip the last two pages though. I don't know what those are about. I'll get around to reading the sequel soon but actually, I'm not sure I need to.

Next up is The Shadow of the Soul by Sarah Pinborough. It's the second in a trilogy, A Matter of Blood is the first, and it's a detective story with some gritty super-natural intrigue thrown in for good measure. I enjoyed the first one a bunch and keen to see where this one goes. It has already annoyed me by being a tall book with 400 pages but about 100 words per page. I hate non-mass-market paperbacks of thriller books. I feel like I'm reading a kids story holding this thing. It's not super smart and if you're looking for a high fantasy book, this isn't even close to it.

I can't remember if I've said this before, but I'm also reading the Four Hour Body by Timothy Ferris. I'm not using it to lose weight or anything like that, but it's been interesting so far. I like his way of writing and I can always learn a few things from his books. I'm not sure I'd recommend it as a book for dieters (I'm not doing the diet in the book) but it's pretty good as an accessory for a general healthy lifestyle.

I guess I should actually get around to re-reading hyperion huh? I read it when I was a wee tot but I barely remember it, I just remember the guy with metal all over and the spaceship was named Yggdrasil. But it seems to be all the rage all of the sudden - what happened?

There were a couple of people reading it, so I decided to read it as well. "All the rage" is probably a grand total of no more than three people

Well seeing as it only takes a couple of thousand copies sold in a week to get on a bestseller list... 3 people could probably be considered to be 'all the rage' in this little topic =P

This book is sick, enjoy!


I haven't had too much time to read it, only like 6-7 chapters in but the book is definitely sick, in more ways than one. It's so wonderfully, disgustingly descriptive. I actually read Iron Council a few years back but I was probably too young to completely understand it, but reading Perdido Street Station is a wonderland for the imagination.

Perdido St. is by far the best of that series, unfortunately Mievilles newer books are good though, The City & The City and Embassytown are both definitely worth a read.

haha! i'm reading the master and margarita at the moment also.

russian books are so fucking crazy and hard to understand, in terms of the personal interactions. my copy of the book has a funnier cover though, with the giant black cat just laying back in a chair smashing some voddy

Great book. I read it as part of my University Postgraduate (Graduate in the USA, I suppose) study in Sociology. I think his idea of "double movement" limiting, but it is a fascinating way of seeing the reaction and counter reactions of recent Western political and economic history.

A top read.

I had a dream about me being a Mistborn from the trilogy by Brandon Sanderson. Been reading that shizz a bit too much and intensely.

It was like one of those nightmares when you try to run from something but you cant really run, you run sooo slow. Except this time I tried to push myself up to a roof with the help of a coin, while being chased by a homeless man with a knife. Woke up 3.45 all sweaty

Hey TL.net, lately I want to sharpen up my french skills again and I figured that by finishing up one piece of french literature is the way to go to accomplish that. So any francophone willing to share with me (or the rest of the TL) some great french books?

Merci en Avance.

P.S: I personally really like the psychological/philosophical genre but if anything that have blown your mind that doesn't belong to them, I'm absolutely fine with it as well.
