Re: What is the latest book you have read recently?
My all time favorite TV series is "24". Then I also watch Chuck, Supernatural, How I met your mother, Ghost Whisperer, and a lot more! You?
So that we're on topic, I'm currently reading book 7 of the Harry Potter series. I just finished watching the movie about book 6 and I just wanted to re-read book 7 again.

I own a copy. Read it last year and didn't like it. My mom, on the contrary, is a fan of Grisham, I believe she's read all his books.englishhelps wrote:I just finished re-reading "Playing for Pizza" by John Grisham. :)
A couple weeks ago I finished Paulo Coelho's The Winner Stands Alone, and now I'm reading Agatha Christie's The Secret Adversary. It's the first time I read Christie, and I like it so far.
Re: What is the latest book you have read recently?
I am reading "The old man and the sea" by E. Hemingway. I like the book, however it's a bit difficult because of many new words.

Oh, your mom is a fellow Grisham fan! If she has a copy, I suggest you read "A time to kill", "Pelican Brief" and "The Firm". Those are my favorites. I like "Playing for Pizza" because I love sports and the story is different from what he usually writes.Dixie wrote:I own a copy. Read it last year and didn't like it.

Hemingway uses big words for poetic reasons. But you'll learn a lot. Just Google the definition of words that you don't understand and you should be fine. :)Xkalibur wrote:I am reading "The old man and the sea" by E. Hemingway.

Re: What is the latest book you have read recently?
Well, since I've only read Playing for Pizza and Skipping Christmas I guess I can't judge. I loved the latter, by the way. If you say the former is different from his usual style, I guess I should give him another tryenglishhelps wrote:

Yes, it is his new book...about freemasonry and the like.Is that his new book? I didn't know it was out!

Re: What is the latest book you have read recently?
Yeah, I have Kindle, so AZ usually send me updates of new books. I had it preordered because I wanted to know what he was up this time. It's a disappointment, I guess. I shoulda ordered the Magician's Elephant. I heard this book is very good despite it's a children book. Again, all the books I've enjoyed seem to fall into children section.Xkalibur wrote:Yes, it is his new book...about freemasonry and the like.Is that his new book? I didn't know it was out!
His book bored me yesterday, so I went to AZ to check out the reviews and found this hilarious one.

If you read the book, you'd see why. It's something I wouldn't suggest you to do, though. Nevertheless, maybe your taste is different than mine since you enjoyed the DaVinci Code which I didn't.

I have never read Brown's books, I prefer classics.
Re: What is the latest book you have read recently?
I would give this Lost Symbol book 2 or 2.5 out of 5, so if I were you, I would wait for the book to be on sale or buy it in paperback. If I knew it was this bad, I wouldda waited for about two years and then bought it in paperback for the price of $4, including taxes. I paid $9.99 for my Kindle version. I just can't help thinking of the money I couldda saved.Xkalibur wrote:No, I haven't read the book. I simply watched a report on TV.MissLT wrote: If you read the book, you'd see why.

What is the paperback? Do you return it back after reading?

Now I am reading a novel "Mont-Oriol" written by French novelist Guy de Maupassant.
Re: What is the latest book you have read recently?
Are you planning to buy it?
What's a paperback book? Did you check the dictionary? I really don't know what's the definition they have for it, but from what I understand paperback book is a book that is printed on cheap quality paper, and the price is cheaper than that of a hardcover book because of the differences in covers. Hardcover books are sometimes used as a collection. People don't normally do that with paperback books (you don't wanna look cheap and crazy, do you
). Also, most paperback books are small, pocket size. They're convenient to read while on the plane. The ink is easily smudged. The font is super small. The bottom line is it's a read-and-throw-away book to me.
Yeah, you'll return it after reading if you borrow one at the local library or bought it by accident at a bookstore. Otherwise, it's yours to keep. I keep my hardcover books as my collection whilte donating the paperback ones to the library. It's hard to keep the paperbacks for long since after a period of time the ink will start to fade due to the cheap quality paper.

Happy to read you again.
Fall of the Giants is a recommendable book, but, sincerely I prefer The Pillars of the Earth, even World Without End!!!. Fall of the Giants lacks the depth and definition of the characters that Ken Follett gave to the Pillars of the Earth.
By the other hand, all what I say is my personal opinion. You know this is very subjective.

Oh, great!! It's exactly what I do with the movies I like. But as you, I prefer a good book than a film, mainly because it's very difficult express the history of a book into a movie. All movies I've saw based upon a success book it has been, for me, a disappointment. The first film I saw based in a book was "The fourth Protocol" written by Frederick Forsyth, one of the my favourites writers. Once read the novel, the film sucks. Other example is the Millenium trilogy: the books very good, but the films....

I have just finisfed reading a very old book called "Murder on the Orient Express" by Agatha Christie. It was the mystery novel. I like her works and read many of them.
Re: What is the latest book you have read recently?
I am rereading: One, No one and One hundred Thousand by Luigi Pirandello.
I advise you to read it.
It can help to understand how we often understimate other people and don't become aware of what other really think of us.

Alberto Manguel- The library at night
It is a nice book which promotes the love for reading. I recommend it. You will be prompt to think about all books you have read, to think about the sense of going to library and having your own library.

Today I am very angry
I have wasted my money buying the most disgusting book I have ever read: "Signora da Vinci" by Robin Maxwell.
It is the apotheosis of banality and some people call it: "an historical book!!!"

Re: What is the latest book you have read recently?
The last one was The Book on the Taboo Against Knowing Who You Are, by Alan Watts. Here's a quote:
Before that I read George Martin's Clash of Kings.“Peace can be made only by those who are peaceful, and love can be shown only by those who love. No work of love will flourish out of guilt, fear, or hollowness of heart, just as no valid plans for the future can be made by those who have no capacity for living now.”
Wow, this one's great. Huxley's Doors of Perception/Heaven and Hell is worth reading too.Lara wrote:the last book i read was "Brave New World" by Aldous Huxley, i advise u to read it![]()

Hello Booksworms,
this weekend I finished „Into the Wild” by Jon Krakauer. By the way … I read it the third time and I like it very much – it is a very tragic story. It tells a lot about of dreams of everyone of us, but the guy of the story tried to live his dreams and failed because of the reality.

I am reading " Lettera a una Chiesa che ha dimenticato Gesù".
It is a pity that we cannot find this book in English.
E.Olmi writes how religion must be Joy and serenity. Beliving in another life after death has to give us the power to go on and be generous and understanding with neighbor.

Re: What is the latest book you have read recently?
I have to recommend DEATH OF A SUPERHERO by Anthony MacCarten. It is not a new book but I have discovered it only now
It’s a very special book although it is very simple (for teenagers?). I am reading it in Italian language but I want to buy it also in English. I think there is a lot to learn about new words and a new way to write.
This book tells the story of a terminally ill boy from adolescent and adult perspectives. Don’t worry it isn’t a sad, bore, weepy book!
Death of a Superhero includes comic dynamism, cinematic scene changes, and passages of calm, emotionally intensive narration.
You will read it in a night

Re: What is the latest book you have read recently?
Just finishing reading mine classic Cozy Chilling Bedtime Stories by P. Gibey. Love the reading all the time, have read it for 3times now yet still exciting!!!
Re: What is the latest book you have read recently?
I’ve finished just now to read “Inferno” (Hell) by Dan Brown.
It is a thriller.
Telling the true I have found it a little boring and overfull of information given just to give .
What I can say about this book is that, if you have never visited Venezia and Firenze, after its reading you will start to save money to have a trip there.

Re: What is the latest book you have read recently?
I love the Game of Thrones too. A very popular series! I'm currently reading One Day by David Nichols, really enjoying it.
Re: What is the latest book you have read recently?
I consider myself an avid book reader, specially since my retirement, fourteen years ago. I'm currently reading two books simultaneously: Jack Kerouak's "On The Road" and "The Complete Western Stories" of Elmore Leonard. I've also just finished John LeCarré's "A Delicate Truth" and Arthur Miller's "A From the Bridge." As you can appreciate it is an eclectic list, it covers a wide field of preferences. Anyway, I'd recommend John LeCarré's book to those who like British old fashioned spy stories. I've enjoyed it with great pleasure. Reading it, while sipping an eighteen old scotch whiskey will increase the enjoyment (not for underage folk).
I'd like to post some more complete comments about some of those titles later, once I have assembled my ideas and find the right way to express them in English. For the moment, consider this post as an essay about how to post a post in this highly interesting forum.

Re: What is the latest book you have read recently?
Recently I have finished ''The Doll''. I'm from Poland, so this book is a classical example of set text. It is incredibly great book! It was written in 19th century by Boleslaw Prus. Now I am reading ''If I stay''. When I finish, I will write something about it.

Hi! The latest book I read recently was "The Master and Margarita" by Mikhail Bulgakov. This book has all: merry mischief and melancholy sadness, romantic love and obsession magical, magical mystery and reckless game with the evil spirit. And now I'm reading "Miserable" by Victor Hugo.
Re: What is the latest book you have read recently?
I'm recently finished reading Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck. The novel beautifully captures the life and times during the Great Depression. The story is about two ranch workers George and Lennie and the dreams they harbor. Whether or not they manage to make them come true, that's something you'll have to find out by reading the book. The book also emphasizes on the role the society essays when it comes to the lives of common people. Of Mice and Men is both inspiring and heartbreaking.
I also finished reading The Cuckoo’s Calling by J.K. Rowling and totally loved it! The story is about a private investigator who investigates the suicide of a celebrity. This crime thriller surely thrilled me to bits! Love Rowling's style of narration. The pace of the story is just perfect and it doesn't once lose its steam. A great read!

"A curious incident of the dog in the nighttime" and this is amazing book that made me crying like a 5 years old.
It is a beautiful book about a boy and the way he saw this world.

Re: What is the latest book you have read recently?
I finished Such Good Girls: The Journey of the Hidden Child Survivors of the Holocaust by R.D. Rosen. The book follows the lives of three different children and how they survived Holocaust. It's one of the best non-fiction books I've read in a while. I picked up Palahniuk's Beautiful You a couple of days back (something tells me I'm going to be disappointed by this one eventually
)

Re: What is the latest book you have read recently?
I read The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry many times.
In my judgement it is the best. The book is full of love and philanthropy.
