    Hey, books are books.

    It's fair game for everyone. And you don't have to be a fan to read them

    I've read all the Harry Potter books and I am far from being a fan...

    I'm currently reading Women by Charles Bukowski, the one I finished prior to that was "Beast in View" by Margaret Miller. While I read Millar in German, Bukowski's novel is an English copy though I don't think he expresses as fascinating as his competitor Henry Miller. I might even say I'm a bit disappointed by his straight, almost basic, style of writing. Then again, he was a hard alcoholic so what did I expect ^^
    The stories are still very fun to read and adventurous yet imaginable. I already ordered another two of his works. :)

    Yeah it's Twilight :shrug:, before that I was reading Meditations on First Philosophy and all I can say is wow, Descartes sure can give a compelling argument.

    Oh, don't feel bad!
    You've read Descartes... I hate him!

    Try Nietszche for your next philosophical reading-

    A friend and one of my teachers said the same thing to me, so I guess Nietzsche is next.

    Yes, he will enlighten you in ways you never even thought of.

    I started reading Nietszche when I was 16 and remains my favorite philosopher to this day.

    I read Asshole by Martin Kihn, got it as a gift because I am supposedly too nice... Was a great read, but I think I will remain a nice person, it's less hassle with my conscience.

    Do books I have to read for uni count?
    Like something about linear algebra etc.?

    Well I was about to start on Legacy of the Force: Inferno. but I realized with my college classes I won't be able to focus on all.


    That being said, I've got over 60 Star wars Novels and I've got about half that still need to be read.

    I wish there were more Halo Novels, I can' t get enough of the 6 that are out.

    The Metal gear Solid Novel is great as well.

    "Cell" by Stephen King, it's a really good book, I really like to imagine the things I'm reading, and this book has plenty of room to do so, the descriptions when everything starts (it's difficult to talk about the book without spoiling it) and how it evolves are awesome.

    Hunter S. Thompsons - The Great Shark Hunt

    Last thing I read though was The Walking Dead series up to Vol. 10.

    Great read for the Zombie fans.
