francozola 2,040 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 I've never actually read a book outside of school, but I've just got a Kindle Fire and thought I'd give it a whirl. Just started reading Life of Pi, has anyone else read it? It seems very strange and somewhat boring at the minute...Just out of curiosity, did you get the original Kindle Fire or the new HD one?

bababoom 4,478 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 I know, I know... but it's actually a good read, very interesting. I'm half way through it and i found the Glen Hoddle section hilarious, he was a good tactical manager but he had/has very strange beliefs haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robsblubot 3,595 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 I'm finishing "The Blade Itself" by Joe AbercrombieIt's a completed trilogy in the mold of George R.R. Martin's song of ice and fire (i've read them all) but far far less grimm.Quite good so far, but I still have 2 more books to be disappointed.

francozola 2,040 Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Was planning on reading The Idiot by Dostoevsky as I mentioned earlier but after a couple of pages I realized I wasn't in the right... mood for it so have instead started 1Q84 by Haruki Murakami. Oh and I'm also reading Liar's Poker by Michael Lewis right now. About halfway through that.HD, my missus got it free with her phone.Ah okay. How are you finding it? I got mine when it came out and love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike 12,049 Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 The Colour of Magic by Terry Pratchett. Pratchett's imagination is incredible. But it's comes in second to his wit.I'm thinking of giving Crime and Punishment another go around. But I'm also considering Lolita again...My uncle gave me The Game by Neil Strauss to read. It's so fucking hilariously bad. It's just a misogynistic and sexist diary about a man that sees women only as objects dressed up as "psychology". But that's not what bothers me the most, it promotes a shallow and wholey materialistic lifestyle that I find pathetic in it's existence. I'm ashamed that it sits next to James Joyce on my bookshelf.

I got mine when it came out and love it.The Idiot by Fyodor Dostoevsky is one of the best book I have read in my life. It brought me into tears (and I find it extremely difficult to cry). Still can not forget the main character...the ending... I mean What a novel! I will read it again. :-) Fyodor Dostoevsky is incredible!
