A book on serial killers.

 

Is it a How to or How not to?


I'm reading XKCD web comics. :P

 

I read it for the articles

 

I had a big list of internet comics on my old PC which I've been meaning to recover at some point. I only briefly looked at most of them and thought "Hey, that looks cool. I might read it in the future, I'd better favorite it just in case." I've probably extensively read about 3 of them at this stage.
Anyway, if you haven't heard of Goblins before, I'd recommend checking it out:

Good mix of humor and action.

And the first comic site that I ever looked at:

As for books, I'm planning on ordering a load of fantasy ones off of Amazon in the next day or two. A Song of Ice and Fire - A Clash of Kings will definitely be one of them, I really loved the first book. You guys have any other recommendations? I've been consulting this list so far: http://www.bestfantasybooks.com/, but the huge selection is a bit overwhelming.

 

Neither. Just a book with all the infamous serial killers in it. x3

 

I just finished reading the Hitchhiker's... trilogy of five. :)

 

Everyone in Silico. Not really that into it though.

@Gum: Oh man, I read a shittonne of SciFi and Fantasy. I'd recommend Hyperion by Dan Simmons, winner of both the Hugo and the Locus awards. Ender's Game won both of those as well, I'm sure you've read that. Eh I could go on about books for days...

 

My friend recently let me borrow his "Complete Tales and Poems of Edgar Allan Poe". Pretty fucking big it's been keeping me busy for a while.

 

Nope, haven't really delved into proper Sci-Fi at all so far. I'm thinking of starting off with Dune. I've also heard of Ender's Game, I'll have to give that and Hyperion a shot too.

 

I'm quite into sci-fi... I'm writing a sci-fi novel as we speak.

My favourite to read in the genre is Philip K. Dick (his books are responsible for Blade Runner and A Scanner Darkly, among other great films). I just finished his 1966 novel "Now Wait for Last Year"... Great book.

My other fave authors include William Gibson (Neuromancer), C.J. Cherryh (lots of great series works), Frank Herbert (Dune), and one of my favourite sci-fi stories of all time was written by Steven King, of all people, It was called "The Running Man"... And no, it was nothing like the stupid movie that featured Schwartzenegger. *shudders*

 

Just finished the Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls. Had to read it for class. Wasn't terrible.

 

I OBVIOUSLY READ ANY THING BY JOHN FLANAGAN example: BROTHERBAND, RANGERS APPRENTICE
best book ever!

 

I am re-reading the "Emperor" series by Conn Iggulden. It is basically historical fiction about the life of Julius Ceasar. It is all based on historical events but they are tied in with works of fiction. It is a great read! ​

​

I am also reading "A song of Ice and Fire" by George R.R. Martin. I am in on the second book at the moment. It is going a bit slow due to the fact I currently don't want to spoil the teve adaptaion which I am also following.​
