I'm going to share with all of you a piece of information, should the world ever have the misfortune of you procreating: reading to your baby within days of it's birth will make them smarter.

That's what they say, along with Mozart's music.

Clearly your parents anti-read to you.

The Hunger Games was a poorly written book. The only decent part was when the main character was actually in the arena. The beginning and the ending are both horrid and I never read the other books in the series.

I'm currently reading the Dexter series. I've read Darkly Dreaming Dexter and Dearly Devoted Dexter and I love them. They aren't the best books I've read, but they certainly grab my attention and do a great job of keeping me interested.

My favorite author is John Wyndham.



tl;dr: books are awesome unless they suck

Just finished Sophie's World by Jostein Gaarder - it's a pretty good read if you're willing to trudge through all the philosophical history that comes with it.

...WHAT THE F*CK IS A BOOK?

Or at least that's what the idiots who type idle letters in and call them words would say. A Series of Unfortunate Events and 39 Clues or bust.

For some reason I'm really attached to the Redwall series.

Otherwise I do love my books that involve Roman legions.

Now adays I usually read nonfiction books to learn about cool stuff. Recently read a book about a guy that tried to understand why things break.

That explains it.

Series of Unfortunate Events was good from what I can remember though.

Lenin's Embalmers is fairly interesting if you skip over the parts where Zbarsky talks about his family and other boring crap unrelated to CHEMICALS ALL OVER LENIN MMMMMM

No, letters like to grow legs and run away from me when I look at them. :(
I have so many books filled with empty pages because of this. :( :(

Ah I loved that series when I was younger. The ending left me a bit disappointed because a lot of stuff weren't really cleared up iirc =[

Also yes I do read books, crime thrillers and such. Really enjoyed Cody McFadyen's Smoky Barrett and Simon Beckett's David Hunter series for example.

Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Anyone who hasn't read at least the first one sucks.

I didn't read it, but The Beatrice Letters probably made some stuff more clear.
