LittleRushmonkey Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 http://antonysimpson.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/the-hunted-charlie-higson.jpg Awesome series of books. My favourite ever series really! Never heard of this. Where do I begin? The first one's the enemy. I didn't read them in order because I accidentally started on the 3rd (The Dead) . It is better to read them in order though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhyta Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Just finished Women of the Otherworld series Kelley Armstrong; final book Thirteen, very good. A couple of the Longmire mysteries; Hell is Empty and As the Crow Flies, funny and intense, really like these books by Craig Johnson Then I am re-listening to the Heroes of Olympus Series by Rick Riordan; The Lost Hero #1. I love greek mythology and the characters make me laugh too. I have a copy of The Game by Ken Dryden to read, hear it is one of the best books about hockey, just my cup of tea. Then there this other book about a band...Contents Under Pressure.. may have to read it soon I love Kelley Armstongs books too. I wish there were more of them. I particularly like Elena and Clay. I'm on the last book in Kim Harrison's Rachel Morgan books right now You are in luck, there is a new book with Elena and Clay to be published the first of 2015, they are my favorites too. :D 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue J Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Light in August, by William Faulkner I love Faulkner, and I haven't read a book of his in ages. I'll start one, and then not finish it. I'm going to try to break that cycle here, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bathory Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 a people's history of the united states it's alright so far but very one-sided and getting a little repetitive and boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed that it's one-sided. But it's a perspective worth examining. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your_Lion Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Last week, I found a whole bunch of Doctor Who Target novelizations in a charity shop, and added them to my collection. I've got a lot of reading to do.I've finished An Unearthly Child (the novelization of the first ever story), now I'm half way through 4th Doctor classic The Brain of Morbius. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are those the hardback books that are about the size of a soft paperback book? The ones by BBC America? I've got probably a dozen of those. All of the David Tennant era. Most of them are very well done. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of them are very well done.No, these are ones that they started doing in the 70's. They are novelizations of all the 60's, 70's and 80's stories (minus the two episodes that Douglas Adams wrote) Those newer harback ones are good, too. I've got a few of the talking book ones, with David Tennant reading them. It's great hearing his accent change from his Doctor voice to his normal Scottish accent while narrating. He also does a pretty good Rose Tyler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fully illustrated throughout by original artist Pauline Baynes, this edition has the bonus by being colourised throughout. I cannot wait! Great books. These were the first book series I ever read as a kid. I just loved the sense of wonder when they first went through the wardrobe into Narnia. Years later I bought the whole series in paperback but I would like to have them in hardback. In fact maybe I'll start reading them again. :) Edited November 5, 2014 by EagleMoon 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
