Good Books.
Im half way thru this Power Reading course, teaching me to read faster but with better understanding of what Im reading.
Id like to jus bomb thru some books, I start college in a couple months an probably havent read anything useful since Grade.12, which is 3 years. I need some books to read, get my brain working smoothly again. Story boooks, philosophy books, conspiracy books.. all that shit interests me. Last book I read was Farenheit 451, which is sort of a cultish/conspiracy book an I love readin that shit. I know a lot of you are in highschool an thas where you read some dope books, specially if you got an interesting english teacher. So gimme somethin good to read. |
America (The Book)
- Jon Stewart ^^Funny shit.. for real. It's dope. The Da Vinci Code, Angels And Demons.. If you're up to the read.. War And Peace. All dope books. Farenheight 451 sucked though. They burn books and it's all in the future and stuff. Their TVs fill up a whole wall in their house, lol. I read it last year. |
^The same one with the Teacher, that slowly turns the school into a cultish resemblence of Nazi-ism?
I thought that was good read, seeing how easy it is to minipulate young minds. |
^ Yeah. Shit was just weird.
|
Yeah true it was wierd, thas what I lliked about it I guess.
Good looks on the other ones, Ive read some of War and Peace back in the day but I never finished it. |
Yeah, it's a long ass book. The first 500-750 pages are boring as shit, but it picks up.
Definately read the other books though. Those books are ill. The Da Vinci Code and Angels And Demons are great. |
Also, I don't really know if you like history or any of that shit, but if you do 1776 is a dope book.. so is 1421: The Year China Discovered America. <-- I'm not sure if that is the exact name, but i know the "The Year China Disovered America" part is right.. I'm just not sure about the year.
If you aren't interested in history, then whatever.. I'll post up some more good books in a little bit. |
Metaphysics by Aristotle.
If you think your up to it. |
Lmao.
I would advise against it.. |
My reading assignment tonight is on Aristotle... Philosophy class bullshit.
|
Suck shit......

*Beats OMB to it*
Bushido: The Warrior's Code by Inazo Nitobe On the Warrior's Path by Daniele Bolelli The Book of Five Rings by Miyamoto Musashi I'd say The Art of War by Sun Tzu also, but at times that book requires so much critical thinking in order to apply it to everyday life, that it can come of as invalid in some points. Also, be careful with these books. They may change your beliefs and have you living by a new way of life...which will cause your Christian mother to look down upon you as "practicing the wrong religion". Trust me, I know lol. |
For books that weren't written 2,000 years ago, American God's by Neil Gaiman is an extremely good book... Shit is insane... Also, try like the Ender's Game series (if you haven't already), those books are really good... The Hobbit is a good book, especially compared to The Lord of the Rings trilogy, it just has a lot more action... Plus, Harry Potter rules:thumbup:

read frankenstein by mary shelley-if u read into it, that book was revolutionary
streetcar named desire by tenesee williams -theres a lot of imagery and symbolism in there As you like it by shakespeare- makes a joke about everything at the whole worlds expense the catcher in the rye by J.D Salinger-im reading it now and it is amazing, a whole lot of imagery, figurative stuff, if ur at a transitional period in ur life this is definitely the book to read, it has humour in it as well. all of the books mentioned above have hidden meanings and need to be interpreted, dont take anything thats written as literal or else u wont enjoy the books as much. |
The Autobiography of Mr.T...i really enjoyed that book...also The O.J. simpson trial black and white
|
I just got Ender's Game out the library today to reread it. What a coinkidink. I also read Shadow of the Hegemon, and was looking for Ender's Shadow but only found Ender's Game and something with 'Mind' at the end. Yeah, those are some dope books.

Children of the Mind. |
^ Word, that was the one. What's the order of the series?
|
Hmm... I think it goes,
1. Ender's Game 2. Speaker for the Dead 3. Xenocide 4. Children of the Mind Ender's Shadow Series... 1. Ender's Shadow 2. Shadow of the Hegemon 3. Shadow Puppets 4. Shadow of the Giant |
You read them all? What happens in the last two?
|
I only read the Ender's Game series, not the Ender's Shadow series... Which one you talking about? Actually, I don't think I remember anyways.
|
Shadow. Oh well. I've only read Ender's Game, that's shit's dopeness though the cover is gay.
|
Can't judge a book by it's cover...
|
But I can still hide the cover so people don't see it.
|
True...........
|
Enders game was pretty good, but boring at some parts.
If you like conspiracy books I got this on the comp: The biggest secret by david icke and Hidden gears of freemasonry by someone..... regbooks: soldiers of fortune those arn't all but...fuck it. i dont want to look for my e-book cds. Holla if you want me to upload it somewhere. |
