I did a quick search and didn't really see what I was looking for, so... ...Not sure if this is the right forum or not, and I don't mean to offend, but does anyone know of another forum on literature similar to this one. I really like this place and plan on continuing to check it out for...

The first time I started reading it, I lost interest at about the same place you are at and started reading something else. Then I picked it up again in September and started from the beginning. Boy am I glad I did. I read through it in a few days and absolutely loved the book. Just stick...

I am always looking for suggestions. So if anyone has a list that is too long to post and is in some kind of electronic document and that they would like to share, feel free to send it to me at igbomb@yahoo.com My current list is about thirty books which won't last more than half a year.

I voted Cloud Atlas since I am currently reading it, but would have no problem with Lolita or The Chronicles of Narnia (no way I would just read one book in the series) since they are sitting on my bookshelf.

I'd move back to Wisconsin in a minute if I could. But winters are a lot colder, and my wife is not prepared to move that far from her family. I must admit, I haven't heard of any of the authors you mention. In fact, short of Lewis and Dumas, I haven't even read anything by anyone on my...

I didn't really care for this book. I'm a little burnt out on the classics right now, so this may not have been the best time for me to read this. But, I just didn't find a single character likable, and didn't really enjoy where he went with the story. Everyone in the book was just so damn...

Greetings! I've been lurking around here for a month or so, but I thought I would just say hi. I've always been a pretty consistent reader, but lately I have really felt the urge to read some more of the modern literature, so to speak. I think I have a decent handle on some of the older...

This one is next on my list regardless of how the voting goes, but I wouldn't mind seeing other's opinions on it in a discussion thread. Cloud Atlas
