What book are you reading? - Daysbetween - 12-19-2015
Couldn't find a topic on books so here it is. As this is the English speaking part of the forum the book should be available in English.
What are you currently reading? Can you recommend a good book?

Nothing at the monent, but I think tomorrow I'll start reading Aldous Huxley's Brave New World. I borrowed it from the local library and I still haven't returned it. xD
I'm a great fan of Albert Camus, so I would recommend the Fall (as well as the Stranger and the Plague, they are supposed to be parts of a trilogy or something).

I am currently reading "Unbroken - Laura Hillenbrand" - about an Olympian and war hero Louis Zamperini - who survived in a raft for 47 days after a near-fatal plane crash in World War II.
Only to be caught by the Japanese Navy and sent to Japanese prisoner of war camps. Great read, thus far.
Recommended.

Im reading (again) Hyperion by Dan Simmons. One of all time favorite sci fi fantasy. I would really recommend it.

(Re) reading "The Black Company - Shadows Linger" by Glen Cook
It's a fantasy series about a mercenary company that takes various jobs. In this first series, they get involved in a much greater struggle.
It would be a very interesting series to bring to the screen.

I am listening to the destroyerman series, A sort of cross dimensional alternative history WWII series, it's very entertaining,

I love the anglo-saxon literature, if i would have to go a desert island. I take with me to James Joyce, Hemingway, Raymond Carver, Fitzgerald ... Poe, Stevenson, Dorothy parker.
I recommend read "Dubliners by James Joyce"
