It's pretty bad quality, but it's at least a story and I haven't read much in a while so it's nice sometimes. Hopefully we'll finish this one soon and be able to move on to a better one. Which ones did you like? | ||

I am not ashamed to admit i got way more teary than my gf at the end of My Sister's Keeper. | ||

Top five Vonnegut books: 1: Cat's Cradle 2: Mother Night 3: Slaughterhouse-Five 4: Galapagos 5: God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater Breakfast of Champions misses out for being good only the first time through and lacking the satire of American-ness it is purported to have that God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater ably plies. i didnt say it endorsed it, just that it dealt with it lol | ||

I'm re-reading LotR, also partway through the second volume of Feynman's lectures but I need a long stretch of peace and quiet to be able to concentrate on those! | ||

I've never read anything else in this particular genre, but I love these books. I was suggested to try some Tom Clancy but i couldn't really get into too much. | ||

From my longstanding interest in ancient Egypt. Also really liked the game Pharaoh (and its expansion) + Children of the Nile. If you're really interested in ancient Egypt, its history, religion, day to day life of its people and major figures this is a book for you.  ![[image loading]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41ZPQ45ZSWL._bL160_.jpg) I'm going into 3rd year of my arts course in September and I'm still clueless about what I want to do my thesis on. I had a lot of interest in Foucault's work last year and I'm brushing up to see if it will give me any ideas. This stuff can be pretty challenging to grasp but I love it. ![[image loading]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/514GEC4ZTML._SL500_AA300_.jpg) I've been wanting to read this for a while but just couldn't find the time during the year. Heard its amazing but that remains to be seen. P.S: Awesome thread! | ||

Just very interesting and incredibly detailed. Next: Some kinda easily read fiction^^ Need an easy one. | ||
