NightmareOnElmStreet Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 I have had a straight up embarrassing last couple years of reading. Promised myself I'd force quit any half book reading some time ago and I been stuck on the same book for a whole year. It's a bitch getting older cause your A.D.D. gets worse and worse of you got it bad like myself. Hoping with some new changes in my mental health I can have to peace.

Schnitzel Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 (edited) Just started this: But I keep passing out after 3 pages so it's taking a while - night time reading isn't great Plus listening to this in the car etc. But I'm starting to tire of this now that I know it's 7 books long Edited October 8, 2019 by Schnitzel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark_Knight Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Just finished book number two of this series by Cixin Liu. Three Body Problem was the first book, and the most notable to the western world. It’s definitely a great read, lags at times, but the build up is essential. The Dark Forest, however, blew me the fuck away. You trudge through this book like a battle. There’s times you want to stop and not finish and times you can’t put it down no matter what the circumstance. I found myself consumed in thought about this dense novel through the entire duration of my time with it. Definitely the most impactful scifi read I’ve ever experienced. I’m taking a break from the story for a few months until I have the time to dive in to the final one (Deaths End). Cixin Liu is a master of his trade. Translation is also incredibly well done. Including footnotes throughout the novels to assimilate yourself better with any scientific or cultural points that may go over your head. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NightmareOnElmStreet Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Audiobooks = reading or naw..... I’m considering blasting through the need to finish pile via this route. I kinda feel like it just doesn’t count though. What do y’all think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read it back in high school and god that is one of the weirdest, if not THE oddest book I have ever read beginning to end. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schnitzel Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 For reference I just checked and I've listened more than 200 hours of audiobooks since march. in the same time period I've read about 18 hours split over 15 minute intervals so for me audiobooks is definitely a way to go. I actually find it weird when I'm in the car with friends and they insist on playing beats... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hua Guofang Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Seem to be on a run of books by people I know (haven’t read Tom’s book yet but also not meeting him until April, so it works out!). Would only call two of them mates, others are more associates or people I’ve met over the years through work. The one on China’s Red Guard is one of the best written books I’ve ever read and some of the similarities between China’s loony left and America’s loony right are mind blowing. halfway through Contest for Indo-Pacific. Probably could have reduced the amount of pages it took to get this far. The one on Xi doesn’t really reveal anything new for China watchers but is well written and worth the read. The Brexit one has interesting points but is a bit all over the place in terms of its argument. Hugh’s book is amazingly easy to read, the guy can put an argument together. I just remain unconvinced by it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
