i just finished "haruki murakami -south of the border, west of the sun" it was the second time i read it...and i think it's a real good book. i finished the book just a few minutes ago. i read half of it yesterday evening and today i finished reading it. and now..i feel kind of..nostalgic ![]() i have murakami weeks at home ![]() bevore "south of the border.." i've read "hard boiled wonderland and the end of the world" from murakami. it's the most surreal book i've ever read, and i like surreal books. now i start reading "afterdark" the new novel from murakami. which books do you guys like? |

I want to read "Hard boiled Wonderland" but is hard to find here. =/ The last one I read was "Mona Lisa Overdrive", the third book from the Sprawl Trilogy, by William Gibson. That was a great book. Right, Neuromancer is the best, but after reading all the 3 books they got even better. Now I don't know if a will read Gibson's Burning Chrome or something from Italo Calvino or Cortázar. Ah, and before Mona lisa I Was reading "So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish", by Douglas Adams. His books are the best. =D |

i have finished afterdark now. it's a strange book. you see the whole book from the eyes of a camera.... i think it was entertaining, but the ending is kind of....not there ![]() it's like the whole story is unfinished. |

Finished The Diamond Age by Neil Stephenson. It's a good book, but it starts off slow and a bit confusing. The more you read the harder it is to put down. It's both about nanomachines and childrearing. I won't go into it more than that. |

Last book I read was Nemesis by Isaac Asimov. Brilliant writer, that man is. |

I just finished Flowers for Algernon. It's about IQ, intelligence and how it relates to humanity and emotion. Good writing but a little weak on plot. I'm also in the middle of reading Herodotus' Historeia. Much funnier than I would have expected from a great classic. |

I love anything by Terry Pratchett and Walter Moers. ![]() @Krypter: I read The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time a while back, and it's pretty similar to Flowers for Algernon. |

The Road. Very interesting. I didn't like how there were no quotations but it made me have to think sometimes. Deception Point and Digital Fortress I had no idea were by the same person. Both were vrey well put together. Now I am reading The Lost Symbol. |
