Ginginho 1613 Report post Posted July 15, 2013 I feel for every soul that missed the old wow days , those times are just never coming back in gaming. Finished book two in the series, thought the third was out but seems like I have to wait till August! Although this isn't the best story ever told, the fact that Jorg is the biggest BADASS in literature history totally makes up for it. The author did a fantastic job this main character, although Jorg is made of pure villainy and just fucking EVIL, I'm still left cheering for him. Dearly waiting for the final chapter in the trilogy. Just about to start the second book - I hope Jorg stays badass until the end of the trilogy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mercy 30 Report post Posted July 21, 2013 Just read this and loved it. I like thrillers, I don't read them enough. Synopsis: Pulsing with the dark obsession of Radiohead’s song “Creep,” this taut thriller—Jennifer Hillier’s superb debut—rockets from its seductive opening to a heartpounding climax not easily forgotten. If he can’t have her . . . Dr. Sheila Tao is a professor of psychology. An expert in human behavior. And when she began an affair with sexy, charming graduate student Ethan Wolfe, she knew she was playing with fire. Consumed by lust when they were together, riddled with guilt when they weren’t, she knows the three-month fling with her teaching assistant has to end. After all, she’s finally engaged to a kind and loving investment banker who adores her, and she’s taking control of her life. But when she attempts to end the affair, Ethan Wolfe won’t let her walk away. . . . no one else can. Ethan has plans for Sheila, plans that involve posting a sex video that would surely get her fired and destroy her prestigious career. Plans to make her pay for rejecting him. And as she attempts to counter his every threatening move without her colleagues or her fiancé discovering her most intimate secrets, a shattering crime rocks Puget Sound State University: a female student, a star athlete, is found stabbed to death. Someone is raising the stakes of violence, sex, and blackmail . . . and before she knows it, Sheila is caught in a terrifying cat-and-mouse game with the lover she couldn’t resist—who is now the monster who won’t let her go Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Indy 350 Report post Posted July 31, 2013 The Kite Runner - Khaled Hosseini This is an amazing book and a must read. At one point I wanted to put the book down simply out of fear of what Hosseini would tell me. A very emotional book. Not surprised that it is considered one of the books of the decade. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Voidhawk77 1 Report post Posted August 10, 2013 The last book I read was Terminal World by Alistair Reynolds. It was the first Reynolds book I've read and I quite enjoyed it. Next I will probably get Surface Detail by the late Iain.M.Banks(R.I.P). I love his Culture novels. Also considering The Long Earth by Stephen Baxter/Terry Pratchett as I am a fan of Baxters works. Has anyone read it? Would you recommend it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MainEvent 52 Report post Posted September 4, 2013 The Walking Dead: The Road to Woodbury by Robert Kirkman The first book (Rise of the Governor) was one of the best books I've ever read. That doesn't really mean a lot since I usually don't read books though. I'm halfway through this one and it has had me on the edge of my seat, awesome story!
