a clash of kings - george r r martin.

Ooh, I've heard that is really good. Let me know how you like it.

im only 110 pp in but i love it already(as i knew i would). i am a massive fan of this period of time... or suggested period of time. i love the honour, the treachery. i love the human frailty, the love of mothers, the love of sons for their familys honour and the sense of balance. i love the feeling i sense for certain characters.. jon snow, bran stark, aryan stark, cersei lannister and her brother jaime. and most of all the sense i get from tyrian lannister and that perhaps he is the most regal of his family. i also feel that catelyn tully is not as strong as i wish her to be.. but let us remember i am not far into the series. there are characters id love to be proven wrong about and only time will tell.

oh and there is doubt i would recommend this book.... this series of books to anyone who is a reader.

on page 512 now.

This Is A Call: The Life And Times Of Dave Grohl by Paul Brannigan

Not bad so far. Great info on the DC punk scene in the early to mid 80s.

In the Woods by Tana French... taking me a little to get used to her style, but I'm just starting and only in the 2nd chapter... hoping this is a good one since she has a few sequels that follow. I'm a big fan of the Irish Noir...

I liked In The Woods and bought the follow up but somehow it remains in the giant stack of books I keep bypassing as I order/read more. Let us know if you read the 2nd one and like it.

Just started:

Probably won't be for a while... like you I just went on a book buying spree last night... so it might be a while until I get to The Likeness.... time will tell though, if this book really sparks my interest the follow up might make a few jumps in line! Not that I'm a proponent of jumping in front of others in line!

Tim Page - Page After Page



Sex, drugs, rock 'n' roll, and war, were the things Page cared about most as a freelance photographer in Vietnam, and he managed to combine all four passions in a wild, exhilarating, scary party that lasted from the early '60s into the '70s. He saw more combat than did the average soldier and sustained so many wounds that had he been in the military he'd have deserved a chest-full of Purple Hearts. He claims to have had "the best time anyone could want to have." The postwar years were less jolly. Suffering from drug addiction and post-traumatic stress disorder, Page plunged in and out of poverty and despair, and underwent a series of operations to repair his damaged body. He writes here in a feverish, fast-forward shorthand style, telling a story that is alternately hilarious and heartrending. Readers of his memoir will understand why he has long been referred to as "the legendary Tim Page."

a storm of swords: blood and gold - george r r martin.

[El]

The second one from the Millenium trilogy. The books are really weird, almost nothing happens for a couple of hundred pages, yet I find myself to read them in one breath, they are really well written as for me.
