Book Club

[the_missing_y]

Ok, Let's hear it, what do y'all want to read next month?
Pimp yo books.

Flowers in the Attic

Re: Book Club

[quirkytizzy]

Very good book. If you get to the final book in the series - let me tell you, every single piece she lays out in that book pays off. Enjoy!

Re: Book Club

[(Anonymous)]

Yes, please! That whole series is so intense and melodramatic on a whole nother level, it's such a fun ride.

Re: Book Club

[(Anonymous)]

oh god no

such a disappointment

Re: Book Club

[chardmonster]

Tipping The Velvet or Affinity

Re: Book Club

[(Anonymous)]

yes to both

the last one was so good I could easily read another of hers

Re: Book Club

[diet_poison]

I do want to read those eventually but I'd rather have some variety for now and wait a while before doing another book by the same author so soon

Re: Book Club

[(Anonymous)]

either something unashamedly literary

or something indulgently historical fic/high fantasy/sci fi

ursula k le guin perhaps?

Re: Book Club

[cushlamochree]

Le Guin could be cool. James Tiptree would be great for sci-fi but she's more of a short story writer.

Lord of Light maybe? That's good, not too long a read, and probably some good opportunity for discussion. Or for historical/alt-historical someone from the Tim Powers / James Blaylock / KW Jeter group? The Stress of Her Regard could be good - English Romantic poets + awesome supernatural stuff.

Actually, I'm going to nominate that. I've never actually read it but Powers is a really good writer and it sounds fantastic. The Stress Of Her Regard.

Kafka on the Shore by Haruki Murakami

Re: Book Club

[(Anonymous)]

oh god that book is so fucked up.

Re: Book Club

[queerwolf]

On a Pale Horse by Piers Anthony, the first in the Incarnations of Immortality series. The rest are hit or miss and some outright suck, but I love this one.

Re: Book Club

[(Anonymous)]

Piers Anthony for Book Club, huh. After a few subthreads about his how gross his writing can be, it might be fun.

Re: Book Club

[queerwolf]

It's been awhile since I've read them and some of the books probably are like that (I honestly don't remember) but I don't *think* this one is. I could be wrong.

Re: Book Club

[(Anonymous)]

I'm not sure if it is either. Been years since I read any of his stuff and that was just the Xanth series.

Re: Book Club

[(Anonymous)]

Yes! Even with how gross his stuff can be [and how plasticy it always feels to me] this one was awesome. I like most of the Immortal series, but...I'll have to disagree with whoever said this one wasn't sexist. The beginning *did* have some of it from what I remember. [Like, right at the beginning before stuff started happening.]

Re: Book Club

[the_missing_y]

Oh plus fucking one.
creepy evil fucker though he may be, that book is wonderful.
Kinda sad that he is such an asshole, because the world he built had such promise.
