ClueTwo Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 I know some other people have read this book (see below), but did it take you 4 months?? I'm only half way through, and honestly, I'm following it well, but it leaves me pondering for hours after I read a single chapter. Just curious if anyone else had the same situtation??

Fist 666 Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 i've been reading it for about 8 months now because its my leave in the car book and i only read a few pages at a time. i don't really get the hype so far (about 2/3 done), but i do enjoy it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HELLA LOVE IT Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 we will see how this turns out... was recommended by the book store owner... about 10 pages in and feeling like it's going to be filled with a bunch of already-been-done type shit...

Weapon X Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 pretty sure that's a girl's book. and that's coming from a guy who reads fashion magazines and history of couture type shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weapon X Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Well, I know it's definitely not a war novel. Girls places always have mad books of his on the shelf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weapon X Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Not "girl book" like VC Andrews or Dean Koontz, but "girl book" like Oprah's book club. My mom reads that guy's stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iloveboxcars Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 This sumbitch to get ready for the new one dropping in July im kinda unhappy with this one, as the 3rd book left off at some of the most interesting parts in the story so far, and now we get the story lines of a bunch of characters i dont give 4 fucks about. whatever.

Silba Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Just finished World War Z... Good book indeed. i enjoyed every page Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metronome Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 World War Z was def interesting. A good read. The interview with the grown woman who remained a child mentally was pretty chilling... currently reading A Game of Thrones, going to plow my way through those 4. also reading Karen Miller - The Awakened Mage fantasy fluff for the moment.

Silba Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 World War Z was def interesting. A good read. The interview with the grown woman who remained a child mentally was pretty chilling... . Yes, indeed. I liked the one with the scout and their relationships with their dogs, made me feel pretty warm inside. Just started reading this: On another note, does anyone have any Zombie books that are a good read? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much better imho. Currently reading: Steven Erikson - Dust of Dreams (book 9 of Tale of The Malazan Book of The Fallen) *highly recommended series* Brandon Sanderson - Mistborn Re-reading GoT series, on book 3 atm, Storm of Swords Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Realism Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 now that im further along in feast for crows i'm not as angry at it. It holds up to the others, but it's definitely not the best of the bunch. Some of the subplots it introduced confused me at first. Revisiting an old favorite: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
