    Essentially all of the GoT series. Thing is I'm polish and I used to read polish books mostly. Whoa, that just struck me.

    Just finished 2nd part of Lord of the Rings, considering reading other Tolkien pieces like 'The Silmarillion'. Thinking about using audiobooks with Audible. Thoughts?

    My favourite form of reading is having both the book and the audiobook. I actually enjoy it, because it forces you to read the entire thing, not just ~30% like people normally do

    Do you mean you read while listening to the audiobook, or you do one after the other?

    while I've managed to pick up great expectations by charles dickens (which seems to be promising thus far), i haven't been able to get much time to read
    past that, anyone have some recommendations for good books in general?

    Basing it off of Charles Dickens, I think that you'd like pieces by Mark Twain or Ernest Hemingway

    At the moment reading 4 series at once, the Sword art online series, theatre illuminata series, re-reading deltora's quest and reading the James Potter series ( a series about Harry Potter's son).

    Anyway all are pretty good series ... My fav series so far is the iron fey, which has humor, etc. in it... Ask me about anything I've mentioned I'll answer in more detail... Just didn't feel like writing an essay.

    Deltora Quest is amazing, great read, especially the other ones (the flute and the dragon things).

    Spoiler: I got bored around page 30, too many names, too many stories. It's a hard read, but I"m sure if you stick with it you'll enjoy it. Also, happy belated.

    Finally finished 'The Silmarillion', absolutely adored it. Planning on reading another piece in the Tolkien universe going by the name of 'The Children of Húrin'!
