Are you reading any books atm? if yes, what?

[Anonymous]

Yes I am

No I’m not

[Kaneki05]

The best book ever, aka Book Thief. Then we have Love Murder (Saul Black), Run (Gregg Olsen), The Chalk Man (C. J. Tudor), The Manifesto on how to be interesting (Holly Bourne), The Girl with all the Gifts (M. R. Carey). Eeny Meeny (M. J. Arlidge), What I couldn't tell you (Faye Bird), The Historian (Elizabeth Grant), The Silent Companions (Laura Purcell) then finally we have The Gone Series by Michael grant.

Also no doubt I will be reading The Exorcist again, the film by the way is awful which is sad because some many people like the film and will never read the book. Much like Stephen king books that get turned into films that just aren't the same biggest problem with The Shinning, Anyway The Exorcist is one of my books I read over and over and that is the same to Book Thief.
And yes I am reading all these currently aswell as writing my own stuff. Some people would prefer money and job that takes up all there time but if I could live like this forever that would be fine by me, which is my intension been working so far.

[Kaneki05]

Also I have some visual novels I need to get around to reading too. Manga at the moment though I have not got anything that sparks my tastes sadly a lot of the great ones ended like Attack on Titan.

[Asker]

Wow! You seem like an avid reader. Awesome choices 🙌🏼

[Kaneki05]

Avid reader and writer, inspiring to become a published writer. :)

[WonderBell99]

What’s your favorite genre? In books, I mean

[Kaneki05]

@WonderBell99 Thriller for sure

[WonderBell99]

Run by Olsen is a good one. One of my favorites.

You have some great recommendations.

[Kaneki05]

@WonderBell99 Ain't finish it yet but that's a good sign most of these are what I am reading so I don't know if they are all good nor would I recommend them yet but they sparked enough interest for me to read them.
Apart from The Book Thief, and The Exorcist those two I would recommend because I have finished them just reading again they are great. Along with the shinning though I am not reading that again.
Friendly fwi if one goes to read The Exorcist there is parts of the book in Latin that one will not understand that's when it comes to the exorcism part though I've never bothered to try figure out what those words were because it didn't hurt the experience.
The tone to the book is much different to the film because it never actually confirms if she was possessed unlike the film which is why it's far better in my opinion and the ending very much makes that a clear point.

[WonderBell99]

I’d recommend “The Last Thing She Did” by Gregg Olsen. It’s a good read if you like psychological thrillers. A lot of his books are amazing.

Thank you for the recommendations. I haven’t checked them out yet, but I will once my finals are over (it ends on 7th June😭). My dad loves The Exorcist (movie). One of his favorites horror movies when he was a kid. I’ll give the book a go first though.

[WonderBell99]

Although, an important point to note - In the book, “The Last Thing She Did” I was a little disappointed by the ending. I was expecting the ending to be more thrilling and something more solid.. I don’t want to ruin the book for you, but the novel as a whole, from the start was very intriguing. Some of the characters are very unlikeable and you’ll hate some of them.. lol, but that’s one of the reasons why I love Olsen’s style of writing. Give this a go when you’re finished with the other books. (=

[Kaneki05]

@WonderBell99 haha might have to argue with your father on that. Will check that one out if I do like Run after it's done.

[WonderBell99]

@Kaneki05 haha, hope you like the book! (=

[NamerOfStars]

I'm currently working my way through House of Leaves. I was also working through the second of Brandon Sanderson's Stormlight Archive, but had to leave the area, and the library I'm closest to doesn't have it.

[Asker]

Very interesting reads. I didn’t read either of them but I heard House of Leaves is terrifying. How true is that statement?

[NamerOfStars]

Not very, so far, but I'm not far into it.

[Secret6620]

Yes, I am most definitely reading some good books this summer.

I actually just finished reading the Hobbit a few days ago. Now I am reading the Lord of the Rings. Really amazing books 📚

I wanted to read the books first and then watch the movies afterwards. 🤓

[Asker]

These are my favorite!!! I never liked Harry Potter but Lord of the Rings I absolutely loved. Enjoy them! Movies are good too

[Secret6620]

Yay! Most helpful girl ✨

[jennifer_bloom]

[DaisyM23]

I'm rereading 'a tree grows in brooklyn' - one of my absolute favourites :)

[Asker]

Never heard of it but very interesting title

[DaisyM23]

set in early 1900's and follows the childhood of a girl (Francie) and her family through poverty and death etc, it's really beautiful

[Asker]

Brooklyn during that period was a wild place.. definitely very interesting

[WhitneySnow]

Yes. Faye Kellerman, Theory of Death. A mystery about a murder at an elite math school.

[Asker]

Wow, very interesting

[WhitneySnow]

Thanks

[anon1903]

Mary Shelley Club and They Wish They Were Us. The former i recommend with all my heart and soul.

[Asker]

Thanks for the recommendations,, I will definitely look into them

[bolverk]

Just finished Jack Carr's 'The Terminal List' and I'm 13 chapters into his next book 'True Believer'.

[Asker]

Scarlet** Only 1 't' soz

[zagor]

There are several I'd like to start but life keeps getting in the way. And the NBA playoffs.

[Asker]

I hear you man, too many books very little time

[Alex8736]

"Facts Don't Care About Your Feelings" by Ben Shapiro

[Asker]

Lol interesting

[MrJMM]

Way too many. But hey I love to read in the middle of reading Iron Widow.

[Asker]

Nice! Do you read physical books or do you listen to them

[MrJMM]

I do both now as an experiment. I love to read but never listened to an audiobook because I always forget stuff because I can't anything but when I read I just remember. So the experience is new and quite nice.

[MrJMM]

*can’t remember anything

[Asker]

I agree but I feel like with audiobooks, it’s easier to finish much more books. I didn’t try any audiobook service just yet. Reading is much more enjoyable for sure

[MrJMM]

Oh, I don't have a subscription for audiobooks. I just bought one to try out if I would like to continue liking audiobooks.

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

Yep. There’s a Georgian writer she was my friend from university, her book became quite popular, I am reading it ❤️

[Asker]

What’s the book if you don’t mind sharing?

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

It’s called Pearls, but I don’t think it’s translated to other languages yet, it was published a few months ago.

[Asker]

Oh okay, thanks though.

[Waldoe]

my "stroke" destroyed my "short-term" memory... I can still reason, think and make good judgements... but tomorrow... I will have forgotten the whole thing...

[Lliam]

Right now I'm reading Coup d'Twelve by David Martin.

[Asker]

Interesting

[FunkyMonkee]

Not at the moment but I AM in the middle of one I started 2 years ago about The Monkees. I just never got around to finishing it.

[Asker]

What’s the title

[FunkyMonkee]

I think it's just called, "The Monkees". It's all about how they became a group, all the records and t. v. shows they did, who played what at each recording session and stuff like that.
About a year ago I bought a book right here at my foot called, "Psychedelia: 101 iconic underground rock albums 1966-1970". I blew right through that one in about 2 weeks!

[whereismyjohnny]

Yes. This one psychology book by Christel Petitcollin.

[Asker]

Cool!

[exitseven]

I am not but I have a book on order at the library.

[Asker]

What is it?

[exitseven]

It is an autobiography by Fox news personality Tyrus.
