Read Any Good Books Lately?

Post by JacksColon »

Or do any of you even know what they are? muahahahaha :D

I'm currently reading "Death by Black Hole" by Neil deGrasse Tyson. Pretty interesting and easy to read. I plan on getting His Dark Materials for my birthday to see what all the fuss is about.

It has nothing to do with a lamb, but it's about the life story of a guy called Montyn, how he his life in a simple town gets distrubed by WW II and how it will change his whole life. I enjoyed it.

Poe's short stories kick ass, and I loved Catcher in the Rye :love:

Reading Next by Michael Crichton, it's a great, and fast paced book.

Whoever is reading LOTR, it's great you'll love it!

I'm also reading The Juniper Game, by I dunno who, my gf told me it was really good so I picked it up and it is really good. Easy and short read, but it's good.
