Devastator
12.07.11 | The Furnace series. Only the first 3 are out in the US but it's really good and pretty brutal. Can't wait for the last 2 |

12.07.11 | If you like sci-fi, and I know you do, Dune, Brave New World, and Neuromancer are godly. |

12.07.11 | House of Leaves. I actually came out of that book thinking I was mad and needed help - anyone who's
read it will understand.
Oh and 1984. Because classic. |

storm of swords!!!!"
Another SoIaF fan! Rejoicing abounds!
Dune is most godly. Nothing else compares, at least none of the classics compare.
Reading a few Gardner Dozois scifi anthologies, always some great stuff in there. |

disturbing
or SEXY
I think we know which one folks. |
Gilgamahesh
12.07.11 | LOTR is great but idk Tolkien just paced that shit so badly. Now the Hobbit, there's entertainment. Pretty much perfect. |

Activista anti-MTV
12.09.11 | you can read dr. seuss to increase your book counts p fast that's nice |
IAmKickass
12.09.11 | Grimm's Fairy Tales was entertaining. |
InAbsentia
12.09.11 | Dude. Read A Clockwork Orange. |
ohfoxxxycole
12.09.11 | is the film not an extremely faithful adaptation
|
IAmKickass
12.09.11 | I'd be into reading that if it went a little deeper in than the movie did.. |
InAbsentia
12.09.11 | Not at all. It misses the whole point. Kuberick didn't use the last chapter of the book which is probably the most important part. |
tarkus
12.09.11 | Mary Shelly's Frankenstein
Paradise Lost |
IAmKickass
12.09.11 | Kubrick has a way of skipping whole parts of books in his adaptations that would be great on screen. The Shining is a fine example. |
Samshine
12.09.11 | Long Walk |
InAbsentia
12.09.11 | I actually never read The Shining. It's on my holiday list, though.
I love both films btw. But he kinda missed the point leaving the last chapter like that. The whole moral of the novel is in that chapter. |
IAmKickass
12.09.11 | Maybe he felt as if he couldn't adapt it well enough, so he left it out? Not too sure.
The Shining is a great book, but a lot different than the movie. |
EyesWideShut
12.09.11 | Get These books... Now!!!
The End Of Alice by A.M. Holmes
Extasy by Irvine Welsh
Lunar Park by Bret Easton Ellis
Story Of O by Pauline Reage
"has anyone here read naked lunch"
yea im not the biggest Burroughs fan, but i found Junky better. |
InAbsentia
12.09.11 | The thing is that the American version of the book had 20 chapters instead of the original 21. That's the edition he used for the film. |
IAmKickass
12.09.11 | Oh I see, didn't know that. |
ohfoxxxycole
