RE: A room without books is like a body without a soul!!
Currently reading Seeds of Change-
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/835314.Seeds_of_Change?ac=1&from_search=true
It has been a bit of a slog but I'm on the 6th plant and almost done.
Just finished listening to the audible version of Good Omens by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett.
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!
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!
