The Reading Thread

I've known since TTW, aka like 6 years ago, that he was big into comic books.  I'm just saying, for him to plug ONLY the two forms of literature was a shock to me.  That's all.

[silas]

Actually, technically I've known him since WPW.

Ahhh....hahaha.

I do read other stuff, but not on such a regular basis that it qualifies as consistent enough to list, you know? I need my Marvel fix and, well, you can never pick up too many tips from pro bodybuilders. Yeah, that's my life. LOL

geez... and I thought I was a nerd.

[Osbourne Kilminster]

Yes, I'm a nerd. Oh well. Yes, I had a nerdgasm when Thor killed his grandfather. A smaller one back when Thor dominated Iron man without a second though. Shame on me, huh? LOL

Oh, nerdgasms all around for those moments.     But Zig gets the blame for getting me hooked on JMS's Thor storyline.

Last book read: New World Order by Ralph Epperson- sue me I'm a conspiracy theorist

Reading now- my sons books at night very very fond of the Peter Rabbit series

I'll prolly try to get into another book when my oldest starts kindergarden, who knows what wonderful UFO books I might be able to find then.

I'm still slogging through Wolves of the Calla myself. Up to this month I'd read 20-odd something books, but it's gone a lot slower now that I fill the hours between 10pm and 4am with work rather than pages. It's a pretty good read though if anyone's interested in reading The Dark Tower series. Still have two to go, but I'm still of the opinion that the 3rd one was the hardest to get through so far.

[Patterson]

Oh man. It was the fourth one -- Wizard and Glass -- that effectively slowed my pace down to a screeching, grinding halt. Once I finished it, though, the last three I tore through.

[Mad Dog]

I recommend the

Second Sons Trilogy by Jennifer Fallon

for those that like sci-fi/fantasy and intrigue.

Updates.

last read: Dogwalker by Adam bradford - book of short stories.  The guy is bizarre but he has this weird charm that he likes.  I def enjoyed it.

currently reading: Abarat by Clive Barker - this guy keeps getting recommended to me and i still cant find a book i really like by him, so far this one is solid, but i wish he would spend more tiem worryin gabout story structure and consistent narrative and less about how many fucked up things he can think of.

next up: Either Bel Canto by Ann Patchett or Orcs by stan nichols depending on whether or not I want to read more fantasy after this one.
