Hi, I just joined! I hope to discuss and share books!
What book are you reading now?
I'm slowly making my way through Crime and Punishment. I'm on the last part. I'm already trying to decide what book to read next. Any suggestions?

I finished Crime and Punishment, finally! It was amazing. It took me awhile to get through, but it was well worth the effort. I haven't slowed down nor taken up an easy read. I'm tackling Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged. I read her first novel, We the Living, and really enjoyed it. I find her ideology intriguing and I appreciate her writing style and talent. Her philosophy is somewhat questionable but fun to grapple with.
What are you reading, Christopher?

I agree, Kafka is great. I love the Metamorphosis for it's creativity and metaphors. I haven't read anything by DH Lawrence although several years ago I made an attempt on one of his books but couldn't get into it. I may have to revisit him as I do want to read one of his novels. Which one would you recommend?
any input would be great!
