message 110: by Kunal (new)

Kunal (kunalreading) | 1 comments I am reading a graphic novella called 'Anatomy of The Deep Inside' by Kaustav Dasgupta. It is a very short graphic novel and very much interesting to read. Really deep in words and emotions. Accompanying graphics and images are also equally sensitive.

Jackie Downes | 9 comments I have a number of books going at the moment. Presently concentrating on two of them in particular, though.

The Passage by Justin Cronin and Outlander by Diana Gabaldon.

P.s. who else has heard of and/or actively participating in the PopSugar Reading Challenge 2016?

I could really use suggestions for a book where the protagonist is a Clerk or office administration assistant and for a book that is a romance set in the future - Thanks :)

I've not really kept up with Sarah Zettle post the Camelot Series and Isavalta Trilogy, which I wouldn't categorise as YA reading. How would you rate this book?

I am trying to read as much as I could. Right now I'm all broken after a surgery so I'm working back and forth on kindle and novel to read. So far I'm already up to 8 or so books. I'm hoping to make it to 10 this month, if not more

message 146: by Gaines (new)

Gaines Post (gainespost) | 33 comments I finished American Gods last night, and highly recommend it for anyone looking for a deep, dark, soulful, well-written novel. And I mean novel, not book. Not many books I've read lately can, in good conscience, be called novels in the strictest sense of the word -- especially not novels that are so well-sculpted. American Gods is easily among the best three novels I've read in the past decade, or more. It's no wonder it won so many awards (including the Stoker, for those of you who read a lot of horror etc). My only (very minor) complaint is (view spoiler).

By the way, I'm glad I read the 2013 edition; after much contemplation, the author went back and rewrote large sections of it, added bits in and took bits out, and says this is the edition of which he is most proud. He seems to be quite a deep thinker, and I trust his judgement. Oh, there's also an "American Gods novella" tacked on to the end of this particular edition of the book, in the appendix -- and honestly, it's more like an epilogue than a completely separate tale. The novella is a continuation of the story that is more than worth a read.

I cannot praise American Gods highly enough. Truly. What a refreshing gem.

Hmmm... what am I reading now? I started reading The Martian last night, in part because we were given a copy of the movie and I want to read the book first, but it's such a drastic gear change from the masterpiece I just finished reading that... well, I dunno, the whiplash might be too intense. I guess I'll see how it goes. 'Not sure what I have on my shelves that can follow American Gods.

VanillaSky | 2 comments Frankenstein by Mary Shelley Boy's Life by Robert McCammon The Terror by Dan Simmons

I'm currently reading Frankenstein by Mary Shelley - can't believe it took me so long to actually read this book :) - and Boy's Life by Robert McCammon - an amazing coming-of-age story. And listening to The Terror by Dan Simmons.

message 150: by Nicole (new)

Nicole  (dodidoe624) Reading Glass Sword right now and I'm nervous because I am really looking forward to this book but it has been awhile since I read Red Queen and I get kind of disinterested in sequels and series if I don't read them in secession because I read so many book in between... we shall see!
