Aaurora Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 I thought it would be fun to post a list of all the books you complete reading throughout the year! I love reading and usually get through a few books a month. Sometimes a lot quicker if I stay away from these forums! So far, I haven't read many The Cleaner by Paul Cleave - brilliant book about a very lovable and funny serial killer. Very humourous, had me laughing out loud which I never do whilst reading. Loved it! The Contortionist's Handbook by Craig Clevenger - strange genre but extremely well written. About a man who changes his identity on a regular basis and explains how he does it. Weird ending..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never seen the film and my sister was having a clear out of her old Stephen King books LOL (please don't spoil it for me:naughty:) I normally get through a book every couple of weeks but this has taken me ages.

Do you work? I read a book or two a week if they are easy ones like thrillers. More heavy duty stuff like classics ie Dickens or Eliot or history books or biogs take me longer. If I read more and spent the same time on the computer as I do, I wouldn't have time to work! I am only on my second book of the year so far, though.

Suzy Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 OMG. There's only been 1 week this year. I couldn't have possibly finished reading one book yet. Especially when it seems half my time is spent here. But the last book I read (latter part of 2007, recommended by Sari) was Middlesex, by Jeffrey Eugenides. I highly recommend it too.

I often find that, books fire your imagination so much more, films just hand it to you on a plate, I'm not much of a film person myself. Now I am going to read my book too, it's called Panic or something and it's about lots of killings and CIA and spies and things I read thrillers like some people read comics.

pinkunicorn123 Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 I saw Gone with the wind at a theatre about 7 years ago. Never thought to read the book, wasnt something that provoked much interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalas Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 i finished reading the subtle knife by philip pullman and jus on his third book the amber spyglass. they are all very good! Oooooooh they are indescribable. fantastic. I must read them in english... I'm currently reading: Why is it allways about you? Saving yourself from the narcissists in your life - Sandy Hotchkiss: It's interesting. I've got people kind of close to me that seem to be narcissists. and I think I've got some traits that may be considered as narcissitic. uhu. and Around the world in 80 days - julius verne. A lot of words that are hard to understund in it... good for me I guess. Those two books will be finished in a month or so ... I haven't got the time to read a lot.
