I really enjoyed, no I loved these books.

Can anyone recommand something similar? (if this is even possible)

and of course...

Hard core sci-fi in a pretty gross world

Great read storywise as well as where content is concerned.

also everything by Philip K. Dick. This guy is like a win factory. Great style, language, know-how and VOLUME.

This guy wrote a shit-ton of stories (without a doubt rehashing this and that here and there), every one of 'm worth the read.

He invokes the funny, sincere, dire, happy, malevolent, weighted, etc, etc, in a singlepage story without breaking a sweat lol.

also don't let the SF "vibe" of his work turn you off, it would be a shame .

also SF combo

John Katzenbach

pretty good book

its focus is on U.S. early-highschool math classrooms and how they are different (and inferior) vs higher achieving countries

"Animal Farm"
should be able to read this simple and powerful book in one sitting

and

"Dune"
this very deep sci-fi series will take more than one sitting lol but it's well worth it


those are both infamous classics tho
here's the book I'm currently reading
US Money vs. Corporation Currency "Aldrich Plan"
http://www.archive.org/details/usmoneyvscorpor00crozgoog

written in 1912, I don't expect many of u to follow me down this journey - some of the illustrations so far are amazing pieces of history in themselves tho

this one's pretty amazing, read for south african literature class and got it me contemplate the complexicity of humans' relationships.

ADWD is out already, a couple of months ago.

The movie is coming next year



Someone has read it?

^ Heard it's quite good, almost got it and read it based on a really strong recommendation, but for now, it's just on my list of things to read in the future.

Read The Hunger Games series and it was meh. The first one was good but the other two were utter shit and felt like it was written by a 7th grader.

Have this audiobook, halfway through



definitely recommend for poker and life alike, poker players are mentioned some in it too. And a lot of psychopathic traits that I'm personally lacking should hlp poker players tremendously.

Lemon do you have a readable version? I hate audiobooks :D

Yeah there is a book on amazon

"amazon" if you know what i mean

Yo recommend me some "my mind was blown " kind of book

P.S. Loco please no books about nutritions

"The republic"

>oh shit, while technology has been racing forward, actual thought has been pretty stagnant.

great read, great re-read, would recommend
