Reading Tsunami by L. Timmel Duchamp Aeryn Send a noteboard - 07/05/2010 04:10:19 PM
Here already. What are you reading?


So so very good.

Honestly, I'm stunned that this book and the series isn't better know. It may be the most important science fiction series written, it's brilliant and impossible to put down. In terms of socio-political insights/intricacy it blows Red Mars out of the water.

And it's immensely readable. Everything about it sounds intimidating, but reading it is like eating popcorn.

I'm not reading any books right now. None. Zero. Not planning on changing that, either. Tom - 01/05/2010 08:21:45 PM 888 Views

A change of plans. Has anyone heard of "The Mill on the Floss" by George Eliot? Tashmere - 08/05/2010 11:51:04 AM 894 Views
The name vaguely rings a bell... also, close your italics tag. *NM* Legolas - 08/05/2010 12:39:15 PM 452 Views

I've read it. I enjoyed it, which surprised me, because Eliot isn't the happiest writer. Rebekah - 08/05/2010 12:47:40 PM 838 Views

I take it from that statement that The Mill on the Floss is basic reading in other countries? Tashmere - 09/05/2010 12:14:27 AM 902 Views
Re: Hmm. Not so much basic as known. Danae al'Thor - 10/05/2010 07:19:10 PM 995 Views
