So I set up a challenge for myself to read 100 books in the year (roughly two a week). Right now I'm on book #40 (a smidge behind).

I bought the first 4 books of A Song of Ice and Fire and The Bible of StarCraft, but I have such a little time for myself that I believe I'll only read the bible, since it shouldn't need so much time and attention like the SOIAF series.

I'd also love to read Boxer's auto biography, but it doesn't have a book (in English), only webpage ={

A great book on the beginnings of modern Western military history, though I found its basic premise that generals spent most of this period in search of the "decisive battle" is misleading.

Currently Reading:

What can I say? I'm a huge Star Wars nerd. Don't just try to pick up this series and read it, though - you'll be incredibly confused (and bored) if you haven't read many, many other Star Wars novels. If you want to get into reading Star Wars, start with Timothy Zahn's Heir to the Empire trilogy.

Up Next:

I'm actually not sure what exactly I'll be reading next, but this book is near the top of my list. I've read it before, but it's a great piece about the second-largest manhunt in history.

If you're interested in that kind of stuff, keep an eye out for this book:
[image loading]

It's by a former student of my boss, so I got to skim through an advanced copy, and it's a pretty good read that covers, amongst other things, the largest manhunt in history. Runkle's been working on this one for a while, so he's really lucky that they got bin Laden right before his book came out!

Last book I finished was We by Yevgeny Zamyatin. It was incredible.

I'm currently reading a classic, The Crystal Shard by Salvatore

Absolutely loving it so far. I have a feeling it will be my favorite fantasy book.

a fire upon the deep by vernor vinge. pretty damn good i must say. i plan on on reading the prequel a deepness in the sky when the release date for the sequel (children of the sky) is a bit nearer so i dont totally forget the story,

also just finished day by day Armageddon by J.L Bourne. its about zombies, so if u like apocalyptic stories u might like this one. its a very easy read and pretty entertaining. i started the sequel yesterday, day by day armageddon: beyond exile. supposedly its even better so we'll see.

next up i might read the foundation series, or maybe rendezvous with rama or maybe the name of the wind.

i have about 90 books that i wanna read and they are all good so its hard to choose.
on a side note: if anyone wants to know how to download books for free on stanza just pm me and ill let u know. yes yes i know i should support the author but im a broke college student and im addicted to reading. furthermore i love having physical copies of books so when i have more money i plan on building myself a nice library of the good ones. like i said. hit me up if u want the info and are broke like me. enjoy

Im cooler than the other side of the pillow.

I cannot emphasize enough how much I recommend you to not read anything by Proust. Just slam your head into a brick wall instead

Probably Game of Thrones? I really dislike fictions though... Maybe the big short?


I've been reading ~1-2hr/day for the past 2-3 weeks, and I'm still working on this book. Lots of hours of entertainment for ~$15, definitely good bang for the buck.

I highly recommend it to those who have an interest in North Korea.

Not exactly the latest book I read, but I think I am justified in ignoring random thrillers I sometimes borrow from library as time-killers. Decent book although perhaps bit old. Also contains argument that video game encourages violence . Cruelty by Kathleen Taylor I read in 2010 had more content though, albeit a much more heavy reading.

Currently:

I liked The Elegant Universe, and stories about intellectual debate in A Guinea Pig's History of Biology (I think) which is why I bought this book, but all the scientific talk is bogging down my process.

Next in Line:
[image loading]
Saw it displayed on the Chapters store, and it is a topic that interests me. Whether I am exactly going to buy this book is debatable, but at very least I am sure my next book is going to be about introduction to sentence styling. If anyone know better book for such purposes recommendation would be appreciated

Truthful 'Last read' for a people who don't want me to cheat

Borrowed it at local library; also piece of crap. Being a moderate (with perhaps liberal leanings) reader who also have penchant for military / techno-thriller generally seems to be recipe for pure disaster.
