@Perguvious, if you liked Norwegian Wood, I'd give Wind-Up Bird Chronicles or Kafka on the Shore also by Murakami a shot. Those two are brilliant.

As for thread contribution

1) Dark Tower: The Drawing of the Three
2) Dark Tower: The Wastelands
3) Dark Tower: The Wizard and the Glass

Most of these books are fairly well known at this point, hopefully I don't have to explain to you what they're about. If you don't know, gogo read them now kthx.

Those are just the fiction books.

Non-fiction:

1) Everything Bad is Good For you

A great read about how pop-culture and our current over-stimulated culture is actually making us more aware and "intelligent". It has some interesting points, but should be taken with the grain of salt it deserves.

2) The Omnivore's Dilemma

Another good read about the food we eat, where it comes from, who grows/processes it, and the ways in which we eat it. It covers the military-industrial complex chain of food, the "organic" chain of food, and the local, self-sustainable aspect of farming and the sub-culture it inspires.

3) ??? Perhaps The God Delusion, it seems to be fairly popular around here, and Dawkins is just the right kind of elitist asshole for me.

Of course, you only live one life, and you make all your mistakes, and learn what not to do, and that’s the end of you.

1) Recently Finished Gateway.Best book I've read in a long time, great sci fi!

2) Currently reading the 50th Law, great so far. Robert Greene has the midas touch.. The topic is fear and how it could hold you back. It is co-written together with 50 Cent and feaures a lot of stories from his time as a drugdealer. If you are to read a Greene book, start with the 48 Laws of Power.

3) Next book I plan (have to) to read; Nervous Conditions, mandatory reading for my current english class. Only about 200 pages so it shouldn't be that big of a deal, though I hate reading books I have no interest in.

Just finished: A Storm of Swords
Now reading: A Feast for Crows

I'm re-reading the series because of the Tower of the Hand website. All the revelations and reading between the lines gives new meaning to all of the books for me.

Next: The Greatest Show on Earth by Richard Dawkins.

I WANT this book so bad..
I know where my towel is.

It's actually a really interesting book about one of the most epic recent races (100 miles through the mountains with top ultra distance runners against some crazy tribal people)

Reading Now:
Macbeth

Just reading some of the classics again...

I keep on hearing that it's a really good comedy book but I've never read it. My US history is really bad so I'm a little scared that I might not get some of the irony satire stuff in it but I'll read it soon I hope.

Just got done with all the current Dresden Files books by Jim Butcher(Bob the skull cracks me up) Highly recommended. They are a little mystery, horror, and fantasy put together and always very funny.

I think you will be fine with Catch-22, to me it didn't seem to rely on extensive prior history knowledge on the part of the reader. (Also, it is one of my favorite books, so hope you enjoy it.)

Also I will definitely check out Born to Run, so thanks for pointing it out.


@Atlantian: My friend really really really wants me to start reading the Dresden series, but I just have so much on my tbr pile that I can't... .

Was also thinking about re-reading some Asimov classics a while ago, it's been almost 8 years since I first read them and it'd be nice to revisit.

Great book. If I had to pick a favorite author it would be Heinlein, he was fucking genius. SF today is for retarded angst teenagers
