Bump because someone was looking for this topic.

I like Rick Riordan's books. I love how they take ancient mythology and apply it to the real world today.

The first couple books were fairly good, but they got gradually more sucky. I really can't stand most of his works.

Fuck logic, that shit is boring, lame and does not always support my opinions.

Is that the Percy Jackson guy? Yeah, I didn't like those books either.

I've been reading what is possibly the greatest book ever.

I saw a book by that man called "I am a Pole (And So Can You!)" and I really want it just because.

I don't read. Elementary school killed my interest in books with teacher's awful selections. I think the last book I liked was Watership Down from forever ago. Now I stick with shorter things like news articles.

Edit: Maybe that's a bit drastic. I read political philosophy and theology, but in terms of books for entertainment-- no.

I'm reading Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy. I really need to finish the book fast, or else it's not going to be featured on cinema anymore.  :-\

Who dares to stand up for this book!?!? :P I, for one, have nothing but negative words...
And the moral of the story: Quit while you're a head.

It was sort of good, in my opinion. I liked the tesseract part and the logic behind it, but as the story progressed, it seemed too much like a fairy tale.


The story was really sweet.  ;D

I very much like that book. It's incredibly weird, but it's also bizarrely comforting and intriguing.

Only the four first books have been published in Finland. Are there more currently?

The seventh one was just published last week in America.
