In exchange for killing the Crab Kings, I have received 20000g and a katana.

Lemon Curdistan posted:Handmaid's Tale is good, even though I hated it in the context of being forced to read it in Eng lit. I liked Oryx and Crake a lot more. I want to read more of her's, so maybe I'll read that next the only other thing I've read of hers besides Handmaid's Tale was Oranges are Not the Only Fruit and that was good too

I don't know what book I'm going to read next, I've been trying to start Swords & Deviltry but I just haven't had the energy at night to read, recently.

Parallax posted:I enjoyed it, it turns out a dystopian future that focuses on a woman's perspective is more terrifying, who'da thunk i'm looking forward to it, just a shame that i lost my old copy. hearing about Core of the Sun is probably what reminded me to pick it back up, so i may just end up doing a sexist dystopia double feature.

Strange Quark posted:The Hunger Games are a competition where kids kill other kids for the entertainment of rich people. I was kind of surprised that a series about a bunch of working class kids organising an armed rebellion against a capitalistic system perpetuated by rich people who have said kids brutally kill each other for their entertainment got a big budget film series.

I think the only books I really enjoyed being forced to read at school were Blindness and Fifth Business. Fifth Business especially. It was a really engaging book and I actually bought it so I could reread it several times.

Dangerous Person posted:Read The Spy Who Came in From the Cold and have a full report ready for me please I read that and also the later 3 Smiley books. They're really really good. I watched teh (and loved) Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy film with Gary Oldman and so read that one first, then Spy Who Came In, then the last two Smiley books. I had a bit of a hard time getting into The Honorable Schoolboy at first, but loved it by the end. And Smiley's people was nothing like what i thought it was going to be since i stumbled over some spoilers long before i actually read it. I haven't read any of his others, or any other spy books either (except Legacy of Ashes)

Strange Quark posted:There are like two spin-off textbook-style books, and they're making a movie about the fantastical beasts one. The two spin-offs were ages ago. Like, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaages. They came out before the series was even finished. There was also a third one. That came out after the series ended. The first two were about the magic creatures and Quidditch, the third was a bunch of story tales from the setting I think? Including the one about the Hallows? I didn't read the third one.
