of mice and men by john steinbeck, for school. this is going to be my second fully read book ever, and the first english one. hope it'll make my english better :)

Plotseling gebeurde er niks (suddenly nothing happened) by Herman Brusselmans. It's a Belgian book. It's like a book that containts the 3 books: Ex-schrijver (ex-writer), Ex-minnaar (ex-lover) and Ex-drummer (speaks for itself). Our religion teacher read (sp?) a bit from it and it sounded really funny so I rented it at the library. It's a very good book.

William King - Gotrek and Felix, the Second Omnibus

First they Killed my Father- Loung Lu (i think) for school, 1st fully read book for school ever

William King - Gotrek and Felix, the Second Omnibus

That's a great one. The whole Black Library is the sh**.

I just finished reading Truman Capote's "In Cold Blood" it was the best nonfiction book I've ever read. It's written just like a novel.

Now I'm reading Brave New World from peoples reccomendations here on the Cafe. And I am going to read Schindler's List within the next month as a historical fiction book for school.

BnW is a great book, I loved it when I went through it :)

I picked up "Iron Maiden; 30 Years of the beast" and "Sound of the beast, The complete headbanging history of heavy metal" today. Already got a nice chunk into the Maiden one, both look really promising!

I justy finished The Hobbit for a book report, and soon for pleasure I'll start reading Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring

Currently reading Cry the Beloved Country. I'm so souped..this is because I'm actually interested in this.

Currently reading The Hiding Place.

Just finished The Messenger by Lois Lowery which was a follow up to The Giver and Gathering Blue, it was good, sorta disappointing cliff hangerish ending though.

Finished two book yesterday so now I am on to Hobo by Eddie Joe Cotton, as well as Bound For Glory.

i am re-reading Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
it's a classic

i just finished reading The War Of The Worlds the original book

Lupita Manana

Im reading that in school, i dont read at home.

i am re-reading Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
it's a classic

i just finished reading The War Of The Worlds the original book

most def i think ive read tht book more thn any other book i own. you should check out some of HST's other books. many arent as fast paced persay as F&L:LV but "hells angels" was really intresting and "screwjack" and the "rum diarys" were intresting. "fear and loathing in america" is can be boring but still quite good

i just finised up "naked lunch" and am moving on to "trainspotting". i sw the movie but the books are alwys better
"Take the best orgasm you've ever had... multiply it by a thousand, and you're still nowhere near heroin."

Transworld mag

yea I have read Hells Angels and Rum Diarys both amazing books
People like Hunter S. Thompson make the best and most interesting books without a doubt. They are open minded and ready to try anything, what other author's do you know like him or are this sort of drug related, biography stories ?

i dunno most of the drug books i read are more technical not like gonzo style, trainspotting, naked lunch were good and if its drug books your looking for i cant recommend anything better than P.I.H.K.A.L and T.I.H.K.A.L both are just completly amazing. Apart from F&L:LV they are my favorite books

shulgin is just an amazing man you really should check pihkal out.

Just finished reading the Nikki Sixx's Heroin Diaries like two weeks ago and then moved onto The Van halen story which i just wrapped up.

Heroin diaries was insanely good.

I jut finishe Hobo, so now am onto "Dharma Bums" I am rereading all the books that I have read which make me want to travel before I go off on March 9th.

Dude...I freaking IMPLORE you to seek out Rolling Nowhere by Ted Conover. This is a guy that spends a year or so doing things (Railroad Hobo, Prison Guard, Illegal Immigrant-sort of, Taxi Driver in Aspen) and writes about it. Sort of like Morgan Spurlock, but in print.

I'm halfway through The Panic In Needle Park. Nothing like a good junkie book.

go dog go!

twilight... i forget the author.. ill update it soon.

Transworld 25 Years of skateboarding

The Outsiders

Under and Alone, by Billy Queen.

Random suggestion from an old man: Keep going with S.E. Hinton after you finish the Outsiders. The next book in the "series" would be That Was Then, This Is Now." The movies (while good) didn't go with the continuity.

Desperation by Stephen King.

im reading a goosebumps book, simply becuz they are short and when you finish them in skool you do a summary bout it then get 5 points on a test, so i read goosbumps plus although they arent scary they are somewhat interesting the book im reading now is

the curse of the mummys tomb - r.l. stine

The Tiger Rising - Kate DiCamiflo.
Im reading it as a school assignment.
Its a pretty stupid book if you ask me. {rf)

I had to read "Faust I" by Göthe (Goethe). :/

A History of Philosophy: With Especial Reference to The Formation and Development of its Problems and Conceptions, by Wilhelm Windelband; re-reading the end of Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand; and skimming through The Gay Science and Thus Spoke Zarathustra, both by Friedrich Nietzsche. I tend to jump around between books while reading.

The Answer Is Never, it's about skating, kind of boring to be honest.

Einstein: A Life
by Brian Denis, (I think it is)
it's pretty sweet.
and various shakespeare (sonnet 60 is snazzy)

Nietzsche, ehy? I like the idea of him, and he was very witty, but in general I think he was wrong about things.

a wierd book. the lost world by sir arthur conan doyle. i had to read it.

Right now I'm reading The Maze by Will Hobbs but will start Walden. If anybody has read Walden, is it good and do you recommend it?
thanks

I just finished Slash's autobiography.

Eight tales Of Terror - Edgar Allan Poe

the great escape by paul brickhill.

i have to read it for school lol

slam by nick hornbey

I enjoyed Walden.

Nietzsche, ehy? I like the idea of him, and he was very witty, but in general I think he was wrong about things.

He has valueable insights, though not consistently. I'll agree that most of what he said was either incomplete, misinformed, illogical, and generally dead wrong. But I find him to be a very interesting persona nonetheless.

Mein Kampf, by Adolf Hitler. It's deep, and it also shows why he was such a genius and a madman at the same time. I don't blame him for going all psychotic, though; his life was hell.

So just cause he had a bad upbrining that means all the things he did are ok...?

We The Living by Ayn Rand

Dracula..... Ha ha

I am rereading Huck Finn. I had a dream where I had a really sweet tattoo based on the book, so I am reading it again to see if I want to get the tat.

^^I had to read that for a class. I hated it.

I am reading "Their Eyes were watching God."

I'm reading Cry the Beloved Country
Not to far into it yet, but its supposedly about the racial inequalities of South Africa, Apartheid, prejudice and struggle.

The Hiding Place by Corrie Ten Boom.

Pretty good so far, it's for school.

the sleepwalker by robert muchamore :)

Just finished "The Mutt" by Rodney Mullen. Freaking inspiring as hell. A great, quick read. That guy is just pure genious. So dedicated.

My next books will most likely be "Heroin Diaries" and "Slash".

Check these out:
"So you Wanna be a Rock and Roll Star" Autobiography of the drummer from Semisonic - explains all the crazy business BS of being in a band, and the crap that goes along with being a one hit wonder band.

"Scar Tissue" by Anthony Keidis. If you love the Chili Peppers, you'll LOVE this book.

If you can't already tell, I love autobiographies.

Someone stole my Cry the Beloved Country book. I felt devastated because I liked that book..and I didn't even get to finish reading it for my class.

Now I have to start reading that book Childhood's End for English class. I don't know what that book's about though.

Patriot Games by Tom Clancy. So far it's hella good.

Anthem by Ayn was really good. Read it over the summer last year. Short and sweet, indeed it was.

Yep, Anthem was a great quick read. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to know what Ayn Rand is all about. I'm reading her books in order right now. Breezed through We the Living and Anthem...The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged are some long-ass books.

I never seen no threads here about this. I also searched it nothing came up.

The Best Short Stories of Jack London

Great author. His stories are brutal when it comes to nature`s laws and it`s cruelty

I just finished Echo Burning by Lee Child, and now I'm moving on to Smoke and Mirrors by John Ramsey Miller. I like mysteries, and anything with a badass detective like character.

Twisted by Jeffery Deaver

It's a collection of short stories. They are short stories with a twist or two added in to the plot. I'm no expert on how great books are, but I enjoyed it.

30 Years of The Beast - Paul Stenning

Great Expectations - Charles Dickens

Curse you required summer reading!

I am currently rereading Animal Farm by George Orwell. I read it in high school but I found a 50th Anniversary Edition at the library that features tons of illustrations by Ralph Steadman, same guy who did the art for Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. I should be done in a couple days, nice short read.

Check out the pics though, there is about one hundred of them. Way cool!

Some skate book that i found,it looks old.

"Darkly Dreaming Dexter" written by Jeff Lindsay.

It's really good, very macabre and surprisingly accessible. Enjoying it muchly! :biggrin: Though I don't get much time to read anymore.

skate tips book-a whole bunch of different authors.

i don't read
every one that reads books are LOSERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

^ Well said. You are clearly very smart and not close-minded at all.




I am now reading "Better Than Sex" by Hunter S. Thompson.

I dont have the attention span to read books.

They make me annnnnngrrrrrry

A piece of cake: A memoir, by Cupcake Brown.

Prior to that was Under and Alone by William Queen, which was about a federal agent that goes deep undercover to infiltrate the notorious Mongol motorcycle gang in Southern California. After that, he put out Armed & Dangerous, which was about a manhunt for a real-life Rambo guy duri

Right now Im reading the guide of Final Fantasy VII Crisis Core

Fight Club.

I dont have the attention span to read books.

They make me annnnnngrrrrrry

Same here. I haven't read a book since 6th grade.

I just take it like a man in school. Like when we have to read during class and if the teacher calls on me I just say where are we I wasn't paying attention. After the third time of that in one day she told me to just leave the class. lol problem solved. And when you have to read stories for test and ****... damn I can't stand that like the pssa stuff (i think that's just a PA test so i don't know if you will know what that is but anyway) I will start reading then i will think of something else but keep on reading. Once I finish the story I realize i didn't pay attention to a single word I just read so I have to do this multiple times. Specially with fiction books. It's not real so wtf do I need to read the **** it does nothing for me. And........ sorry for long rant.... im done

The Bible.

Fight Club.


how do you like it?

i read it a while ago

hmm...im reading some random cowboy book that my boss gave me to read. lots of sex scenes in it....

I'm reading a couple right now, Great Shark Hunt, Hunter S Thompson; and a course I need for my Job,it is boring but I need to read it.......Skate Hard or go HOME!!!!

The Ethical Slut: A Guide to Infinite Sexual Possibilities

Vrouwen met een IQ (Women with an IQ) by Herman Brusselmans. I also have the book "Like A Whale" about evolution and stuff. It's up-to-date. I want to know more about religions and beliefs that are in this world. I read the OT (well, I stopped somewhere half of it because it was pretty violent and sick) and now I start to learn more about evolution.

Catch a Fire: The Life Of Bob Marley by Timothy White

amazing book.

The black book, by Lawrence Durrell.

A pretty neurotic and tortured story, the first book of a writer struggling to find his voice and express himself.

and Liquid life, by zygmunt Bauman - analysis of consumer culture, etc. Pretty interesting shiz.

Edit: FightFlyCrow, how did you like Lolita by Nabokov? Those old school russians rock my world, seriously..

I have a bunch on the go.

The God Delusion - Dawkins
God is not Great - Hitchens
The World
The Encyclopedia of Geography
Almanac 2008

A book for summer reading.

nothing.
havent read a single book since school.

i hate them if i cant find a good one

Eldest - Christopher Pauloni

The Ethical Slut: A Guide to Infinite Sexual Possibilities

for real??

Tiger Force by Michael Sallah and Mitch Weiss

Great book about a special forces unit in Vietnam good read any army story lover needs to read this one!!!

Hitchhikers series.. again.

I just finished Alice Cooper's Golf Monster the other day. I've got The Mammoth Book of Jack The Ripper on the go now, really interesting so far.

I'm currently reading King Dork by Frank Portman.

It is a great book that I would recommend to everyone, but especially those of you still in high school who hate reading because you feel school books are boring and pointless. He spends much of the time ripping on The Catcher in the Rye and the Catcher generation. However, he ends up being very similar, making the character a much more modern and relatable Holden Caulfield, less "phony" if you will.

The book is quite hilarious and has made me laugh out loud several times. The protagonist is also a music fanatic, so tasteful references are scattered about.

I'm reading two books

I just started Cirque du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant today
and I started The Revolution: A Manifesto the other day. Just haven't gotten around to finishing.
You're supposed to read it in 5 days and then pass it along to a friend.
Dunno. Probably just some lame propaganda bull****. It WAS written by Ron Paul.

Comic books lol

for real??

Yes, but I finished it. Its quite good. I believed that basic premises of the book before reading it, but it was worked out in a better way than I had it in my mind. Plus there is a lot of anicdotal evidence that I didnt have before. Overall a good book to read. I would recomend The Ethical Slut to any one that is mature enough to handle the subject matter.

For the sake of the thread, I am currenly What Would Kinky Do by Kinky Freedman. No its not a sex book. He is a country musicition that ran for governer of Texas.

to kill a mocking bird

Just finished Glenn Beck's "An Inconvenient Book", which I enjoyed.

http://www.springfieldnewssun.com/shared-gen/blogs/dayton/booknook/51A7qAHGFnL._AA240_.jpg

My next one I have just started on is "In the Event of My Untimely Demise" by Brian Sack.

http://profile.ak.facebook.com/object2/1980/90/l8753042522_3025.jpg

Yes, I read Glenn's book too! The side fact's in it are amazing! He definitly backs up all his statements with plenty of proof! The global warming piece expecially

I love how he just put mustache as his last name hahahaha.

i am currently reading a book called "Deception Point" by Dan Brown who is the same guy who wrote the Da Vinci Code. Im only about 200 pages in and so far is pretty awesome. Its kinda Sci-fi but more based in reality than most of those kind of books. also i recently finished Daniel X by James Patterson. im a pretty big fan of his books. they are all really good and nothing too complex or hard to understand.

I just finished the second book in the Cirque du Freak series last night. I want to read the third one bad.

Still reading The Revolution. It's boring.

I read 'The Fountainhead' by Ayn Rand and it sucked, wasn't impressed at all. And Glenn Beck's book sucked as well, I hate that guy

i am illiterate

I don't like reading books :D :P

i don't read

Anyway, I'm currently reading The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins.

I just checked out Clapton: The Autobiography out at the library today. Didn't get to read much, but it's good so far.

Damn it. Looks like for the next three weeks I'll only be reading books on ethics for my exam. Interesting subject, but quite boring to read about in an academic way. So:

Merging doublepost
Comic books lol

have you checked out the civil war series marvel has going?

Dude, if it weren't for books I don't know where I'd be. Dead, probably. Or hauling crates. Seriously, all the knowledge man has accumulated over thousands of years of progress, all the achievements, all the progress.. the entire reason you're here and not in a cave scratching your balls is to be found in books. The entire wisdom of the world, the key to unlock the secrets of life, the universe and everything is to be found in books.

If you've never read anything before, I suggest you start with "old macdonald had a farm", and progress from there.

Now I am preparing for the future by reading The Zombie Survival Guide.

I'm about to read How to Lose Your Mind In Under an Hour

I just started reading "To Kill A Mockingbird" for English 10. My honors english teacher sent us the list of 4 main books we are going to be reading in class, and the letter was dated June 17th, but none of the kids who are going into her class including myself got our letters until about a week and a half ago. She wants us to read the 4 books (To Kill A Mockingbird, Night, Merchant of Venice, and Oliver Twist) BEFORE school starts on September 5th or 6th (I think thats when we start this year). Dude, I am so screwed.

The Chomsky Foucault Debate On Human Nature - Finished the debate, now I'm reading the additional works included in my later edition of the book. Wasn't really intruiged by either man's viewpoint as much as I expected to be, but the bits of Chomsky talking about language development made me think some about something we do that is rather fascinating that we all take for granted.

Objectivism: The Philosophy Of Ayn Rand - I'm a huge fan of Ayn Rand's novels Atlas Shrugged and The Fountainhead. I've read some of her non-fiction, then picked this up as it looked like a good overview of Objectivism. It's been a good read for the first 100 or so pages I've read. The progression of themes presented in the book is very logical and ordered compared to many other books I've read, and what is said is generally very true and well grounded. Objectivism is the philosophy I currently have the most respect for out of all the philosophies, religions etc. I've studied over the years.

The Bible - Decided to re-read this since I haven't touched it in at least 6 years. Last time I read it I took it from am ore literal perspective, this time I'm thinking beyond the words on the pages and what they might be implying beyond what is literally said.

About to start The Crying Of Lot 49 as well.

Finished reading "On Writing" by Stephen King yesterday from the day before. Then wrote a paper on it.
Finished reading "Things Fall Apart" by Chinua Achebe today from yesterday at 2 in the morning. Writing a paper on it right now.
Gonna read "The Bean Trees" by Barbara Kingsolver tomorrow. Writing the paper on it tomorrow after I finish.
