[destawaits]

Welcome everyone! Here you can post anything about books, whether if it is a book recommendation, a comment on book, or a recount of an event that happened in a story and your reaction to it.

I once had a book.

I was about 5 and it was the very hungry caterpillar.

I remember reading that book when I was little. Good times.

Same. I enjoyed that book.

I recently read this copy of The Giving Tree I found. It was nice. Reminded me of the youth we all lost.

The Giver was great.

The Giver was great.

I know. The dystopian genre is popular with young adults.

[RetralMega]

Harry Potter, obviously.

Have you read The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and its series?

Percy Jackson books were good.

Yesyesyesyesyes

For Hitchhiker Guide readers only:
Spoiler: Man, I hated the part when Douglas Adams removed Fenchurch from the story, right when I was starting to get attached to her.

These novels don't have many events because much of the novels are used to detail these events.

Carrie was kinda disappointing. I prefer the movie.

I used to enjoy reading books, but through my use of internet and gaming I've lost the patience of sitting down and reading something without thinking about other things.

Anyone else in the same boat?

I read a lot less, so kinda. I do a bit of online reading if that counts. :]

Reading Catch-22. Anyone not into books? If you understand the irony, the humor keeps you hooked.

Yes, absolutely.

I used to read a lot back in the US, when I didn't have this MacBook Pro.

I read a lot more when I rode the bus to school.

Artemis Fowl

[RetralMega]

I just started a reading a bunch of short stories in a book by Stephen King called 'The Bazaar of Bad Dreams'.
Pretty good so far.

[twelvethousandants]

I reccomend Wool by Hugh Howey.
It drops off a little near to the end, but overall enjoyable.

Agree. Although I still read some fanfiction, I don't think it quite comes to the same standard that actual books have.

[RetralMega]

Comics are good. Preacher is one of my favorites.

[JazzMusicStops]

Discworld is good and you should read all of them

[GifttheGiver]

Artemis Fowl

Swiss Family Robinson

Two great books.

[RetralMega]

The Walking Dead comics are way better than the show.

[destawaits]

I'm currently reading this dystopian series called "Uglies". Man, how I love the dystopian genre.

[RetralMega]

"When One Becomes Two Problems Can Arise: A Study In Duality" by Doctor Ray De Angelo Harris. (GTA V joke, but still worth mentioning.)

[destawaits]

I used to read A LOT. Now that we have technology and stuff, I don't read as much anymore. I still enjoy reading, though.
