Yes, it's awesome.


Good to hear.

Martin can create a brilliant story, but someone needs to tell his editor to do his fvcking job. Those books could easily be trimmed significantly and it would improve the reading experience.


THat's what I thought.

This book is so incredible you'll think it's fiction.


Creeping up the list.

Good, I didn't love it, though.


I am a HUGE Poe fan, and many say it's a good comparison (and I know it's wordy but I think I trust Simmons and the content.)

quote:

Based off what I know of your movie tastes, have you read Bridge of Birds? It's a phenomenol, and pretty funny, story set in ancient China.



I've come across this many times and just can't pin down if I'll like it. It looks different enough for me, I might give it a shot.

I read a decent amount. But this thread makes me realize that I don't branch out very much. Seems like I'm pretty mainstream.

Twain, Tolkien, Conan Doyle are my favorites. My favorite color is light tan. I also like staring at the moon, long walks on the beach, and drawing pictures of unicorns. Wait. What?

I'm in the middle of Game of Thrones so I'll be on ASoIaF for a wihile now. But before that I read Jurassic Park, The Road, and 1984 (which was a huge disappointment).

This thread makes me feel stupid.
