Whatcha reading?

[personal profile] kaijinscendre 2014-09-23 11:31 pm (UTC)(link)
What books are you reading or have you recently read?

I am trying to get through House of Leaves and it is a PAIN to read. I keep forgetting which font belongs to which person or what was going on during whoever's story/font I am reading. So far, the book has not been a fun experience but I hope it gets better.

What about you all?

I read The Handmaid's Tale.

I picked up 7 Jules Verne Novels at the library today but then I sat down and went online so. I dunno if I'll get to that.

It doesn't, at least to my knowledge.

I just started Shirley Jackson's The Sundial.

I've been rereading all my Jane Austen books. I'm on the last one now, which happens to be Persuasion this time. I feel like reading some Mark Twain next. Maybe I'll reread Letters from the Earth first. That was fun.

I just finished 'Diplomatic Immunity', one of the Vorkosigan saga books. While I wait for my library hold on the next book in the series, I've started Amy Thomson's 'The Color of Distance'.

Still working through the Silmarillion.

I'm reading a book called Asylum Denied for a class, and it is actually really interesting.

Also reading a book on the big civil rights cases.

Why is EVERYONE always reading that House of Leaves book?

Anyway... I'm rereading an old Fear Street book. Cause I found out the author is writing a new one.

Outliers: The Story of Success by Malcolm Gladwell. Reading this has actually given me a lot of perspective on privileged, considering that people born earlier in the year tend to have more advantages and opportunities than those born later in the year.

Deciding.

Just finished a heartwarming novel called "Say What You Will."

It's hard to decide what to read next because, 600+ (published) books on my e-reader. And that's not even counting the fanfic and free origfic, which brings it up to 2.3k.

I finished the last book in The Giver Quartet, Son.

It was a very peaceful read, for lack of a better word. Lowry's writing is better and more poetic.

The Magicians is still sitting on my nightstand. Out of stubbornness, I'll finish it, but before I do, I switched over to the novelization of The Death and Life of Superman. Haven't read it since grade school (I'm 31 now), and it's...only a little different than I remember.

I know I'm supposed to be taking a break...but I saw this thread and thought it would be an opportunity to tell icyred I finally got around to reading Raven Boys.

It was awesome and now I really want to read the next ones!

Thank you for telling me about it otherwise I never would have gotten around to it.

Anyway just swung by to say that!

First Light by Geoffrey Wellum

(Anonymous) 2014-09-24 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
Memoir of a Spitfire pilot in WWII. It does a great job of getting you in his head, in the thick of things. I just finished a chapter in which he gets lost in terrible weather on a sortie, loses his radio, and has to navigate himself home fighting the whole way to believe his instruments and not his impression of which way is up. (People crash that way.) Terrifying, even though I've seen images of the author as a hale 93 year old so I knew he got home. Really good action and reflection sequences, I'm enjoying it a lot.

The Invicible book was in a pinch hit for rarewomen that I didn't take, but ti sounded so interesting I decided to try the book.

And Grace Hopper because ... she's awesome.

I'm finally reading Downbelow Station by CJ Cherryh...I love love love her Chanur novels, which are set in a different part of the same universe, but have kept procrastinating this novel. "Ick, it's centered on humans. boring," I said. Which it kind of is. I do like that the main characters are still basically all women though.

I also got "The Empire Striketh Back" from the library so I have to read that before it's due back. I got to the part where its *enter Wampa* *Wampa monologues* *exit Luke pursued by Wampa*. Pure genius.

I'm reading Telegraph Avenue by Michael Chabon. It seems like kind of a regression for his style, and with worse pacing. But it's still really well-written because everything he writes is well-written.
