At the moment I'm still reading Everything That Rises Must Converge by Flannery O'Connor. I was going to pick up a new audiobook today from the library, but I'm not sure what will tickle my fancy when I actually get there. I'm thinking something action-y, though...

That was a decent book...Really quick read, though. Not Chuck's best, but definitely not his worst.

Do something Crichton. Prey was good until the last third, and would be well suited for an audio book. Eaters of the Dead, Congo, Sphere, Jurassic Park? I could see all of those working with Audio.

Read and/or listened to all of them. I was going to listen to his one about global warming though...Thanks for reminding me. And yeah, Prey was excellent, but kind of starts falling apart towards the end. Still a really ace novel.

Ugh...Rant. Rant started off amazing...And then gets bogged down with stuff that is ridiculous. Basically, the last 1/2 of the book is spent explaining something that doesn't exist, but is crucial to the book's plot. It also could have ended like 50+ pages sooner. That is my least favorite by far. My favorite is Fight Club, but Survivor is a close 2nd. Choke is probably 3rd.

I swear, in the last week, I've seen one of these threads on the first page every day. :P

EDIT: Maybe I should actually contribute. :P I'm reading the 2nd Mass Effect novel.

Yeah, he went on a spree reading Chuck's books...I think he's read all of them if you want his opinion...Though, I'm not sure if he read Rant. Seriously, just thinking about Rant makes me mad since it had so much potential.

I'm reading Scripture: Its Power, Authority, and Relevance by Robert Saucy. It's good so far, but I wish it went a little deeper at times.

Well, considering I have 5 books to read for summer reading, I started now.

Right now, Napoleon by Felix Markham.

Then I have to read The Prince, A World Lit Only By Fire, Baghdad Without A Map, and Black Dog of Fate.

I'm reading 2 books, switching between them. First one is Handling the Undead by John Ajvide Lindqvist, and the other is The Time Traveler's wife by Audrey Niffenegger. Both are fantastic so far, especially the time traveler's wife

I started The Master and Marguerita recently. it's...strange, and not really holding my interest. some bits are quite gripping, though, such as the devil's account of Jesus' trial.
