No, but I'll reconsider now that you've said that.

If you like any of the Lord of The Rings books then you should read the Sillmarillion. It's about all of the mythology that the characters talk about in LoTR. Its really complex but I think it is better that all of the other books. Right now Im reading The Inferno by Dante

I read my keyboard when I type... Cause I suck *** at typing...



I also read the tags of girls clothes I'm taking off before we get down... At least I can tell if she's a cheap **** or just easy.

I forgot to mention Kevin Mitnick's "The Art of Deception" and various books on quantum mechanics...in laymen's terms of course...something my physics teacher recommended.

if you liked the LOTR series then you will like the Song of Albion series by Stephen R. Lawhead.

Celtic lore mixed with real world its pretty cool i have read the series like 5 times through.

Haven't been reading that much lately . . .



Like:

LOTR, Hobbit, Silmarillion - I've read LOTR 3 time, Hobbit probably 6 times

Ray Bradbury - especially the Martian Chronicles

Thoreau - Walden

Jane Austen - all five - I've read Pride and Prejudice at least four times

Dickens - Tale of Two Cities, Great Expectations, Oliver Twist, David Copperfield - Dickens is one of the great realists

Hemingway - Old Man and the Sea is a minor miracle of literature

Robert Frost - I have the Complete Robert Frost, and have read all of it.

Shakespeare - I never met a Shakespeare play I didn't like.

and of course the Bible, indispensable.



Don't like:

Stephen King

Edgar Allen Poe

Just about any modern "series novels" - what a waste of time.
