I think Neuromancer was one of the better ones. It's obvious with his later books that he would start and get lost and not know where he was going with the stories. He actually had fans on the internet help guide him to some of his endings.

Killer Elite by Ranulph Fiennes, it appears it was originaly published under the name The Feather Men

Downloaded all the Harry Potter books on my phone. Rereading the sixth one right now. Hopefully I will be able to find some other books for this app.

So many jokes, so little time.

Might be worth reading the book instead of making jokes about somebody who has more class in her little finger than the entire state of NJ.

The movie comes out early next year.

Everyone I've talked to about the series said it's like The Matrix. Great first story, then flounders after.

rebelknight · 10-20-2011, 02:24 PM

Harry Potter 7. I've read all the books before but I needed something that I knew would get me back into a reading mood because I'm struggling through my other books.

BSB · 10-20-2011, 04:37 PM

"The White Company" by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Tough read, kinda like reading Shakespear. Good though.

VTDragon · 10-21-2011, 03:07 PM

Just finished The Swinger, an easy reading fictional biopic of a Tiger Woods like pro golfer. It was midly entertaining but I could only recommend to a serious golf fan.

CigarNut · 10-26-2011, 09:51 PM

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson. Took a long time for me to finally get around to reading this one and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

10-26-2011, 10:42 PM

I'm reading about psychometric exam tips.

iamsolitary · 10-26-2011, 11:05 PM

Just finished The Fellowship of the Ring. Not sure if I want to read something quick and easy before continuing on.

I would disagree with that. I very much enjoyed the whole trilogy as did everyone I shared the books with.
just finished the second book Son of Neptune by Rick Riordan. It is a continuation of the Percy Jackson series. So far it is my favorite. Hoping to find the same enjoyment in his series about Egyptian gods.

I had to break this series up by reading something quicker in between books. It worked for me but its definitely worth rrading all three at some point

x man · 10-27-2011, 10:33 AM

Long article in New yorker mag. about the Pakistani
intelligence service. A few issues back.

I've read them before. There are just so many books that I want to read that I keep jumping around from series to series.
