Books N shit

Reading catch 22 atm. just read it's sequel, closing time, and the great gatsby

whoa, there's a sequel??? i need a good book for flight today, the missus gave me this geoffery deaver one but i never read him before. this 'closing time' just might be the one for me. i hope they have it in those airport bookstores!

it was a really strange book. maybe i missed some hidden meaning to the whole story, but i was left feeling pretty confused once i finished it.

Started reading bram stoker's dracula this morning.

Oh man! This is a fantastic book. I read it when I was a young fella, freaked me out!

Ive only read the first 20 or so pages and im getting sucked in already.

I finished Rover God and it was okay. Very Wilbur Smith. I might pick up the other books in the series later.

Just started John Birmingham's Without Warning book where the entire USA is wiped out from some weird phenomenon and people start going a bit silly.

Rover God? Sequel to Lawnmower Man?

Bravo!

+1

Is Seventh Scroll the sequel to River God?

yep

River God
7th Scroll
Warlock
The Quest

You'll like that one Lazlo, it's a cracking read.

I'm just about finished 'Sniper One' by Sgt. Dan Mills - it's an account of some fuck off big battles in Iraq in 2004 involving a British company vs fanatical ragheads. It's good, fucken.

Oooh nice one bondi. I shall track it down.

Looking forward to JB's book. I love his writing style...it's kind of what mine would be like if I was a successful writer and novellist

books n shit needs to be bumped n shit

Lets talk about absolutely crap books.

I read this book called "The White Room" (cant remember the author) that i took from lost property in the bowlo i used to work for.

It was so fucking bad, just making stuff happen to offend or confront the reader, with no links to the plot (like a few pages about a coops style bleeding sodomy sesh).

I actually threw the book in the bin halfway through.

The simarillion.

Dont get me wrong i love a bit of tolkien but the simarillon was just complicated and full of homosexual elf jargon.

Blowfly by Partricia Cornwell sucked.

But I hate most female authors.

It's because I'm a real man.

I've been given J.D Salinger's Franny and Zooey to check out. Haven't started it yet.

I don't mind Patricia Cornwall. For a rampant rug muncher, she writes okay. A lot of female authors have a tendency to 'big up' their female characters. It kind of annoys me. I really don't think the fact that they have the cooking skills of a 3 hat Michelin restaurant chef really adds to their ability to arrest people...

In saying that, Bryce Courtenay does similar stuff.

Books I hate? Matthew Reilly. I have tried reading his books but just give up. There's unrealistic and then there is Reilly-unrealistic....

Fritzel Von Krumm with a very low tum?

i really dont like to read fiction. i think it stems from my grandfather always telling me that the perpose of reading is education and self betterment with that said i to have read some matthew reilly and i actually felt dumber for reading it. my mum is really into anne rice and i cant understand why.

Apparently Anne Rice has to be out-of-her-gourd-drunk. I respect that. That being said, Interview With The Vampire was tonnes better than its sequels
