Girl on the train- just finished lol what a disappointing ending 

[Solar Fields 4,163]

Finally finished Song of Solomon!

I really enjoyed it but the ending was a little disappointing to me.

 

Now I'm going to start either The Bluest Eye (Toni Morrison) or Mort (Terry Pratchett)

Has anybody here heard of The Edge Chronicles? It was one of my – if not the – favourite book series when I was younger, and I just found out that after the three "original" trilogies, they started another one some years ago, so I might start to read that. 

 

 

 

 

 

Also, I am currently reading 11/22/63 by Stephen King.

About to start rereading the greatest series I have ever picked up, His Dark Materials. Love everything about it

[My Sparrow Blue 689]

I finished Mice and Men a few days ago .. I cried. The ending is just so sad I can't :'(

[Solar Fields 4,163]

I finished The Bluest Eye and since that had such a bleak ending, I wanted to read something fun.

So now I'm starting 'The Long Way to A Small, Rocky Planet' by Becky Chambers. It's really cute so far!

Blue Melody by Lee Underwood.

 

It's about 60's folk musician Tim Buckley, the book is written by his close friend and band member. So far it's very good and I'm very close to finishing it. Overall it's a lovely book but has a tragic ending...

[Chris Cuomo 3,320]

This Is It - Alan Watts

 

Katharine Hepburn - Gary Carey

[Sugar Venom 9,658]

has anyone read Ishmael by Daniel Quinn? my friend recommended it to me and i haven't started it yet but from what i've heard it sounds really good. if anyone has read it, could you reccomend anything similar?

 

on my list after that is The Doors Of Perception + Heaven and Hell (Aldous Huxley), We Are All Stardust: Leading Scientists Talk About Their Work, Their Lives, And The Mysteries Of Our Existence (Stefan Klein), The Path: What Chinese Philsophers Can Teach Us About The Good Life (Michael Puett), and The Psychedelic Experience: A Manual Based on the Tibetan Book Of The Dead (Timothy Leary)

 

don't laugh at me i like this stuff

[Kittren 209]

A completely new book in the Witcher series by Andrzej Sapkowski, titled Sezon burz ('Season of Storms').

I'm not really sure what I think of it, except that it's nice to have something new from the series along the amazing computer games.

 

I know you said that a long time ago. It is worth to read the books? I played the game, and I love it. I am thinking to read the first 2 books. Is it any good?

 

Anyway I started to read a romantic lemonade story (That is what my mind wanted), but it is so bad, I think I am gonna suffer to read it til the end. But since I payed for it, I will try.

Bringing back this thread !

 

I read Giovanni’s Room recently and it was pretty interesting, but very bleak.

Now I’m reading A Little Life (Hanya Yanigahara) so I guess I’m drawn to sad queer literary fiction
