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 enjoyed Nineteen Minutes and My Sister's Keeper, they are pretty obvious choices. I am not ashamed to admit i got way more teary than my gf at the end of My Sister's Keeper.

I just finished reading this a 2nd time (1st time I read it was like 3 years ago). such a great funny book that tackles so many issues about human life and the meaninglessness of it all. I think it spoke to me personally and the sort of things I've been going through/thinking about lately a lot more than the 1st time I read it. It was almost like reading a different book lol. Bokonon is such a great character. Vonnegut is so great, such a shame that I didn't even hear of him until after he died


You should read
+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]

I prefer it to Cat's Cradle, both are really good though.


I've read that book several times. it was my first Vonnegut book lol. and yes, it's my favorite.


Vonnegut is a lot of things but he is definitely not a nihilist. Cat's Cradle is a remonstrance of meaninglessness, not an endorsement.

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

Ooh I love 'what are you reading' threads :D

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 been reading through Vince Flynn's series around the fictional character Mitch Rapp. I actually found one of the books in a cardboard box in an alley ready to be thrown away 4-5 years ago, read it and loved it.

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.

I'm halfway throught it, and so far it's very compelling.

Finished The Changeling by Oe, it was interesting, I feel like I need time to digest before I even form opinions, it was that kind of book.

Now going to reread my collection of books by my favorite author. Starting with this one:

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.

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.

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!
