Nice, Henry. I'll have to get around to it some day. Hi Advise! I'm a quarter through the book and it's quite good. I think you should check it out my friend. I surely will. A good novel would be a nice change of pace. Be sure to get the 50th anniversary edition, it has a new introduction by Francis Ford Coppola.    Posted:   Jun 4, 2021 - 9:00 AM     By:   ryanpaquet   (Member) Finished this a couple weeks ago, so good, better than the Martian IMHO. Loved it, highly recommended. Looks like the IMG broke - the book was HAIL MARY by Andy Weir, very funny, and the science is just off the charts in this one. I am still thinking about the wild stuff in this book, big ideas!    Posted:   Jun 4, 2021 - 10:24 AM     By:   Xebec   (Member) Oh, i enjoyed The Martian and wondered about this one. Glad to hear it's good. I'm reading SEA WOLVES by Tim Clayton, which is about British submarines in WW2 and touches on their development through WW1.    Posted:   Jun 7, 2021 - 12:47 PM     By:   First Breath   (Member) https://www.foyles.co.uk/witem/biography/babble-on-an-ting-alex-patersons,kris-needs-alex-paterson-9781787602335    Posted:   Jun 25, 2021 - 7:51 PM     By:   Xebec   (Member) Arnhem: The Battle for the Bridges, 1944 By Anthony Beevor. It's a familiar story excellently told. Great book.    Posted:   Jun 25, 2021 - 8:35 PM     By:   joan hue   (Member) I just finished one of the best novels I have ever read. It is called WE BEGIN AT THE END. It is a mystery, but it is so much more. The writing is superb. The characters like the sheriff and the grandfather are marvelously described. The best character is a 13 year old Named Duchess. Some critics compared her to Scout in TKM. I don't see that, but she is memorable. Writers like Louise Penney, Jane Harper, John Hart and Wally Lamb all recommended it, and they were correct.    Posted:   Jun 27, 2021 - 12:25 PM     By:   Michaelware   (Member) Chasing the Light by Oliver Stone. I used to like him. He seems better off when he lets subconscious imagery take over rather than explain himself.    Posted:   Jun 27, 2021 - 12:45 PM     By:   Tall Guy   (Member) Arnhem: The Battle for the Bridges, 1944 By Anthony Beevor. It's a familiar story excellently told. Great book. Read that a couple of years ago, massive book with lots of detail but never tedious.    Posted:   Jun 27, 2021 - 12:50 PM     By:   Xebec   (Member) Arnhem: The Battle for the Bridges, 1944 By Anthony Beevor. It's a familiar story excellently told. Great book. Read that a couple of years ago, massive book with lots of detail but never tedious. I wondered if it was one you'd have read. It's just really well done. I read Beevor's Stalingrad a few years ago and that was excellent too, so might check out his books on Crete and others.    Posted:   Jun 27, 2021 - 7:22 PM     By:   TacktheCobbler   (Member) The Brothers Karamazov - Fyodor Dostoevsky    Posted:   Jun 28, 2021 - 9:34 AM     By:   TominAtl   (Member) I just finished one of the best novels I have ever read.

Joan, I think I will seek this out based solely on your high recommendation and I usually don't do that sort of thing lol. I'm in need of a good book.    Posted:   Jun 28, 2021 - 9:47 AM     By:   agentMaestraX   (Member) VIETNAM: An Epic Tragedy 1945-1975 Max Hastings.    Posted:   Jun 28, 2021 - 9:54 AM     By:   cinemel1255   (Member) The Twelve Lives of Alfred Hitchcock. The chapters include: The Murderer, The Auteur, The Womanizer, The Fat Man, The Dandy. The Family Man, The Voyeur, The Entertainer, The Pioneer, The Londoner, and The Man of G-d. Each chapter relates his films to the chapter topic. Very engrossing an easy read, especially if you’re familiar with his films.    Posted:   Jun 28, 2021 - 10:12 AM     By:   Xebec   (Member) VIETNAM: An Epic Tragedy 1945-1975 Max Hastings. I have this and will be reading it this year.    Posted:   Jun 28, 2021 - 10:51 AM     By:   TominAtl   (Member) VIETNAM: An Epic Tragedy 1945-1975 Max Hastings. Max Hastings is an amazing writer. I may have to check this one out too...    Posted:   Jun 28, 2021 - 11:04 AM     By:   TominAtl   (Member) Chasing the Light by Oliver Stone. I used to like him. He seems better off when he lets subconscious imagery take over rather than explain himself. He used to make top drawer films and then after Natural Born Killers...for me never has been the same since.    Posted:   Jun 28, 2021 - 11:42 AM     By:   Nicolai P. Zwar   (Member) I'm currently reading NOISE by Daniel Kahneman.    Posted:   Jun 28, 2021 - 11:43 AM     By:   Nicolai P. Zwar   (Member) The Brothers Karamazov - Fyodor Dostoevsky Top choice, it's on my reading list.    Posted:   Jun 28, 2021 - 2:37 PM     By:   Tall Guy   (Member) Arnhem: The Battle for the Bridges, 1944 By Anthony Beevor.

And Max Hastings’s Vietnam book mentioned above. Just finished Murakami’s latest volume of short stories, First Person Singular. Some very personal musings, but not top drawer Haruki.    Posted:   Jun 28, 2021 - 4:35 PM     By:   villagardens553   (Member) I just stumbled on this thread. . . . Joan, I noted your comments about We Begin at the End and will look for it. Sounds like it might share some similar ground with Ordinary Grace by William Kent Krueger, a mystery set in small town Minnesota, early 60s with the main characters being children. Definitely brought to mind Harper Lee. Krueger has a series, which I have not read; this is a stand alone, and I loved it. Have you read the massive trilogy by Greg Iles? Very gripping. Not often you page turners that are 800 pages, much less three of them.     Non-Film Score Discussion: What BOOK are you reading?    << < 79 80 81 82 83  > >>  Go to page:  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85   First Post    General Discussion • Trading Post • Non-Film Score Discussion  Profile • Preferences • Community Rules • Help/Contact • Search Board You must log in or register to post.   Go to page:  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85
