Thread: What Are You Reading?

    Haven't read that one yet, but I want to. I'm still slogging my way through the 2nd half of the Stand.

  2. The Stand is a masterpiece. It's his best book, and that's saying a lot.

    Just finished 1922. If the rest are even better, I'm in for a treat.

    Just finished Horns. Thanks for recommending it in here forever ago!

  4. Otherwise if you like war stuff checkout bravo two zero by andy mcnab then read the real bravo two zero by ian mcphedran.

  5. The sad part? I looked it up on Amazon, and those are real books.

    The first 1/3rd of the Stand is fantastic, yeah. But it gets REALLY stupid, and then it has the most thrown together ending of anything ever.

    Agreed.

    I think his best book is Wizard and Glass. He's got a lot of good ones though.

    Guess what! Reading for more than an hour or so on an iPad makes my eyeballs feel like they're going to fall out, and I can't focus. Totally bogus!
