Hi I think we need a thread to discuss books

So post the last book you read and post 1 thing about it that pisses you off and 1 thing that’s good about it :)

For me it was The man who was Thursday

– It has interesting characters and is set in Britain which makes it great

– The ending is a poorly explained cluster f*** of 2 deep 4 u language and hints at what could have happened rather than what did happen and the whole thing becomes a rather silly but interesting metaphorical question rather than an answer to the original question proposed during the argument between Symes and the red haired anarchist.

Ok now its your turn ETF2L! :>

tl;dr

I would recommend John Dies At The End. One of the best books i’ve ever read.

and the ebook series Yesterday’s Gone.

i read the hungry catepillar

good bits was it was not very long and the pages were pretty colourful and had nice pictures

bad bits was the catepillar lacked depth and the author didn’t introduce sufficiently appropriate characterisation to the catepillar

*spoilers*

he kinda dies but kinda doesnt :D you should check it out ;)

Another book I would sugest is Down and out in Paris and London

1 good thing

– Great use of emotions and feelings to get the reader in the head of the writer

– One part is set in smelly Paris :>

I like fantasy.

Some book series that have recently finished/still ongoing that are really good (somewhat in order of recommendation):

The Name of the Wind
The Blade Itself
The Painted Man
Game of Thrones
The Lies of Locke Lamora
Among Thieves
The Final Empire
