Slaves and Masters in the Roman Empire, for my roman history course this semester...hooray

 

[Hello]

I just restarted the Wool series. I started it, then didn't read for months and now I'm restarting it with intention to actually finish it.

I am America and so can you..... by Stephen Colbert.

Ridiculous yet on point and funny.

Oh! Good series!

 

[Homercidal]

Game of Thrones. The TV series hooked me and now the book has me.

One thing I've learned so far is to never start to like a character.

It's about plants used in or to make booze. Now I'm rethinking my landscaping.

Nice, sounds good. I'm adding that to my list.

Currently reading Ruth Reichl's memoir, Tender at the Bone. I'm a fool for food memoirs (Blood, Bones, & Butter, etc) or books about food (anything by Mark Kurlansky, like Salt, Cod, etc.).

Just started The Third Kingdom by Terry Goodkind

This is a good series. I liked the Sword of Truth series a little better.

Have you read the Malazan Book of the Fallen series by Steven Erikson? I've got all of the books but am a little inimidated to start a 10 book series when every book is a thousand pages.

This is the latest in the series.

No, haven't read that one.

Sorry. I liked the first story arc in the Sword of Truth better than the second story arc that is the Omen Machine and The Third Kingdom. I should have been more clear.

So far I like this book.

Yes, best epic fantasy I've ever read. Read the first two of the series and if your not completely hooked by the end of Chain of Dogs then you can let it go.

 

[DFHEK]

Currently reading a tv style 'series' of books. The frontiers saga by ryk brown! Cheap scifi but solidly entertaining!

That's great to hear. I've yet to pick up the first book though. I just finished The Riyria Revelations trilogoy by Michael J sullivan. Pretty amazing. And now I'm reading the Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson again to get ready for the second book that comes out in March.

 

[Hello]

The book on Yeast. Next will be Hops, they were gifts.

 

[Subsailor]

Easy Muffin Tin Meals
The Dowel Arrow Handbook by Nicholas Tomihama
and on my Kindle: Meat Smoking And Smokehouse Design by Robert, Adam and Stanley Marianski.

 

[DrunkleJon]

Dean Koontz Odd Thomas series. Pretty. Good. I'm 2 books in and like it. Weird 20 year old kid who can see dead people and his exploits. Worth a read

 

[passedpawn]

The English Girl. Not sure the author (one of the problems with the Kindle, you never see the cover). Interesting so far.

 

[BGBC]

Got sucked into the Ender Quintet after reading Ender's Game before trying to see the movie. On the third one currently.

 

[beerman2013]

Reading Lone Survivor and John Palmer: How to Brew.

[cluckk]

Understanding Judaism: the basics of deed and creed
Brew Like a Monk

[mrphillips]

Radical Brewing by Randy Mosher

Needless to say, I recommend it to any/everyone...and I know I'm not the first to do so

 

[BadDeacon]

Just finished LOTR and hobbit earlier this month. Back on Calvin's Institutes and Lewis: God in the Doc.

Also read john flanagan's royal ranger this month.

 

[Chia]

Just finished 1Q84 and still looking for something new to start. I've read a few by Murakami now and 1Q84 was my favorite. Long, but kept me engrossed the whole time.

I have heard a lot about that book, i think i will read it next. have the last 500 pages of Song of ice and fire to finish this week.

 

[beertroll]

I Just finished Iain M. Banks' Consider Phlebas (loved it) and have started in on GRRM's A Dance With Dragons. I have PKD's The Man In High Castle in the queue, along with Hops and Water.

 

[Homercidal]

Asimov's Robot series. Currently on I, Robot, after finishing the Series dealing with R. Daneel Olivaw and R. Giskard. Not sure of the order, and I think I maybe should have read I, Robot first, but they seem relatively separate at this point, so probably no harm done.

I am looking forward to re-reading the Foundation series. I started it some years back, and only got to about the 2-3 book.

 

[BrewerinBR]

Brew Like A Monk.

Have been working my way through Yeast and Water slowly as I am doing a research project.

 

[DisturbdChemist]

I'm reading Robin Cooks - mutation. So far so good. This one is going to be a wild ride

 

[sriq]

I'm finally getting around to The Once and Future King by T.H. White (after studying Le Morte D'Arthur intensely a few semesters ago). Also finishing up Wednesday Is Indigo Blue: Discovering the Brain of Synesthesia and The Lives of the Kings and Queens of England!

 

[ram5ey]

Reading Palmer's Water book.

 

[ol-hazza]

Dark star safari by paul theroux.
Well worth the read, about a guy going overland from cairo to capetown in mdern times

 

[gratus fermentatio]

Currently reading Lucifer's Hammer by Larry Niven & Jerry Pournelle.

 

[Psylocide]

Currently rereading The Hyperion cantos by Dan Simmons, as I do every year around this time.

 

[DrunkleJon]

I am most of the way through the first book of the Dies the Fire series. I like distopian fiction. Like the way the author started the 'change' and all that. Kinda irked about how lucky/untouchable the main characters are, but then again you cant have a main character if they get killed off or paralyzed in their first few skirmishes. I will keep reading though some main characters need some really bad luck soon to balance things out.

On a side note, I think the autor must be a wiccan.

That's a great trilogy. Haven't read anything after the original 3. I really enjoy dystopian fiction as well.

I'm working on a book called Necessary Ill. Don't remember the author name.
