RE: A room without books is like a body without a soul!!

Yikes, is "Seeds of Change" worth the slog?

I once tried to slog through Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand. It was just too much for me, I kept failing and lost the will to live after the first few pages. I tried several times though :/

Good Omens sounds good, have you enjoyed it? I loved Terry Pratchett's work, by God it was sad when he died. Just felt like he died 20 years too soon! His books and games always brought a smile to my face!

Sort:  

Seeds of Change will make you annoyed at the way that the author expresses his opinions about things instead of just giving facts. I have had a hard time finishing it.
Good Omens is ok, not their best. It is good and funny but somewhat disjointed. I hear the new tv series will be better.
I love the Discworld series books, he definitely was taken too early.
I never even bothered with Ann Rand, I was warned early on to not bother.

Gosh, I hate that in some books! Just get to the f*cking point and not make me read 1,000,000 pages :P

I had to abandon War on Peace for a similar reason. I think that a lot of classic books are not that good but people claim to read them for snobbery value.

I actually recently got a book from an author who has a similar style to Terry Pratchett... But... I cant find it :/.
BTW have you read Johnny and the Bomb? I recently ordered another copy as it's been ages since I last read it.

Avoid Ayn Rand, unless your hooked on her type of work just avoid!

I haven't read Johnny and the Bomb, it sounds interesting. Just haven't had time.
I definitely will be avoiding Ann Rand!
