Ok, I know that with: school, PSO, work, PSO, family obligations, & PSO; there isn't a whole lot of time left over for other pursuits. But, since reading for pleasure is one of my passtimes, I'm curious as to whether there are other book worm peeps here, and if so, whats on the current menu?
![]() For those that are interested, my books du jour are: All Tomorrow's Parties by William Gibson - Future, cyber, coolness. ![]() The Death of Sleep by Anne McCaffrey (and some loser) - Typical Sci-Fi fare. Oh, and true geek that I am, I consider comic books as literature, so comics count too! Titles I'm currently picking up: Marvel's X-Statix (the new incarnation of the now defunct X-Force) DC's Filth (Grant Morrison ![]() |

Old topic farmin!
I never read. I don't have the attention span for it. But, for some reason, I got the first Myst book and really liked it. Yes, Myst, the game... balbalbla... So after I finished the first one, I picked up the second, and then the third and final one. They were all really good, and a really easy read. Very visual. One of the brothers, who did the game, wrote the books with tthe help of another author. I guess I would classfy them as sci-fi but only because the main characters have the ability to create worlds and travel to them, but they are all really just mystery and righting-a-wrong type books. Still, I would recommend the series to anyone. -------------------- ![]() |
