I totally loved Timeline! The book was amazing, the movie....ugh.
Prey was great. There really is no "bad" with Crichton, just like with King.
Both Timeline and Prey are great books (and yeah, anything by Crichton really).
Thanks guys! I'll have to check them out.
Book Suggestion Time guys!
Since I'll be done with Jane Eyre soon, I'm having trouble choosing my next book to read:
Fifth Business by Robertson Davies
The Maltese Falcon by Dashmiel Hammett
Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck
Garden of Last Days by Andre Dubus III
Desperation by Stephen King
Desperation is like, my favorite book ever :wub:
I almost put in brackets beside Desperation (I know Feev, this one) lol
Save The Grapes of Wrath for when: a) a gun is pointed at your head; b) it is the last book on Earth; or c) you're looking for an excuse to jump off a bridge with cemet bricks wrapped around your ankles.
You make The Grapes of Wrath sound like a cross between the movies Batman & Robin and Judge Dredd, Ricky. And I never thought I'd say that! :lol:
:lol:
If someone could die by reading a book, that book would be Grapes of Wrath. 3 pages describing a turtle crossing the street. A turtle.
Grapes of Wrath is one of my more favorite classics.

No one is worse at useless description than Tolkein. Steinbeck is often pretty succinct so it seems hard to believe it would be that dry.
Rereading Firesarter and I am loving it! ....and also reading Safe Heaven by Nicholas Sparks because a certain beautiful woman begged me to. In my defense, she is trading me GoT for it, and I've been wanting her to read it for a long time.
Has anyone here read much Dennis Wheatley? Ive read The Haunting of Toby Jugg and To the Devil a Daughter. Loved them both and just wondering if I should be reading more of his stuff...
:P go ahead. I HAVE NO SHAME!
except for the little bit of shame I have which makes me say that in small letters.
No worries, Bruno! I have read both Nicholas Sparks books AND Danielle Steele books to get people to read what I wanted them to read.
...and I am unafraid of Chris's mockery.
Dude, 2 years ago I bet someone Twilight vs. ASOIAF and lost. :( I had to read the whole series.
On a plus note, when I talk shit about the Twilight books now, no one can say I don't know what I'm talking about.
Do you two ever get that....not so fresh feeling?
