"Books"

This is the Movies, Music, TV and Books forum, yes? Then why are books never mentioned. I'll admit I don't read anywhere near as much as I watch TV or listen to music but occasionally I do like to read. Over the last couple of days I've been reading "The Alchemist" by Paulo Coelho. It's a story about realising destinies and it does make you think. I recommend you try it if you haven't already. So, what do you lot read, if anything?

Books... Genius!

The last thing I read was For Esme - With Love And Squalor by J. D. Saliger. Bizarre, but enjoyable nonetheless.

About the same as lord of the rings then.

I started War and Peace recently, but it's a bit daunting at over 1000 pages.

Books do get mentioned quite often, though obviously not as much as tv, music and films.

Currently I'm reading 'The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch' by Philip K. Dick. Pretty damn good stuff so far, Dick at his awe-inspiring best.

Last thing I read was a Batman comic, sadly enough. Was excellent though.

(Graphic novel apparently. Because grown up's don't want say comic.)
