    The Giver book was awesome! Movie was ok.

    Does anyone else buy books from BookOutlet.com? It's amazingly cheap. Most of it is overstock or slightly damaged books. Check it out! Also, they have an awesome sale coming up! Plus a chance to win a $25 gift card! ^_^ bookoutlet.com/promo/earnbucks

    Current fiction read is William Gibson's The Peripheral which came out a few months ago.
    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Peripheral
    I'm only about a quarter into it but it's really started hopping. Gibson is one of my favorite sci-fi authors so I was really stoked to get into this one.

    Comix: just finished the first TPB of Alan Moore's The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen for the first time. I saw the movie way back when but had never gotten around to reading this - it's great!

    Next up is a Fables prequel, 1001 Nights of Snowfall

    I'm excited about this too, as I've never read any Fables stuff. Should be fun.

    'The Angels are the Reapers'

    Pretty good for an non-standard zombie story. It's intriguing....

    If I want serious/historical its "Guns, Germs. and Steel: The Fate of Human Societies". If I want something relaxing its "The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy".

    I'm currently reading Insurgent by Veronica Roth. I love the Divergent series so much! What are you reading?

    Just started Heart Shaped Box by Joe Hill. Nice and creepy so far. Torn between Horns or rereading The Study Series next.

    As you wish - Inconceivable tales from the making of the Princess Bride. Its an easy quick read. This is one of my favorite movies.

    Finished Deathstalker, was fine, wouldn't call it a favorite. Then buzzed through Wings of Fire:The Dragonete Prophesy (Kid Lit, will have to buy the next "for my son") The Giver (really enjoyed it up till the climax, nothing against non-happy endings as long as they make sense for the characters) Got about 1/4 of the way into Whitechapel Gods when a cat dumped a glass of water in it. . .so back to reading free internet smut till it dries.

    Just finished Warlord of Mars, started on Chessmen of Mars and read A princess of Mars before those. Been on an old school acidic/adventure bent lately. Started with The time machine a few weeks ago after trying to find my copy of The time ships, ( did you know there was a sequel to the original?) and I think next up is the prewar era scifi classics.

    That's supposed to be "scifi/adventure". Not acidic.

    I'm reading the second book of the Lightbringer series by Brent Weeks now... I haven't been that caught in a story since the Sanderson Stormlight archives book. So good. Still wish I had realized the last book wasn't out for another year before I started though, but I have another one after that.

    I'm currently re-reading 'Pride Prejudice and Zombies'. I love reading about genteel ladies mastering the deadly arts.

    Just finished The Martian. I wanted to make sure to read it before the movie came out. Great read!

    I have a whole stack of Neil Gaiman books that I'm about to make my way through
  • Posts: 1,374 Member
    Gaiman's Sandman series is still my favorite by him, but I also love Good Omens by him and Terry Pratchett.
  • Posts: 342 Member
    Sandman, Good Omens, Anansi Boys, and American Gods. Love them all. Now I'm trying to catch up on his newer stuff

    I'm reading the Outlander series! Love it. Currently waiting for "A Breath of Snow and Ashes" from the library.

    Currently reading, "You Are Not So Smart: Why You Have Too Many Friends on Facebook, Why Your Memory Is Mostly Fiction, and 46 Other Ways You're Deluding Yourself" by David McRaney. Nonfiction about how psychological biases color our perceptions (and internal conceptions of truth). Very, very interesting.

    That sounds really mad and really interesting! Thanks for sharing. X
