Hey all. I'm going to be having a bit more free time over the coming months, and have taken to reading again. I had forgotten how great a good novel can be. I've been scouring the internet looking for suggested reading lists, but also figured I'd see if any RCFers were readers. I did a search but couldn't find any threads devoted to reading in general, so thought I'd start one!
The first book I tackled was Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. That was a fast read, and I would definitely recommend to those who like books about dystopian societies. Now I'm a few chapters into both Three Men In a Boat by Jerome K. Jerome (possibly the funniest book I've ever read), and Cat's Cradle by Kurt Vonnegut (don't have as good of a sense of where this one is headed)
I know A Song of Ice and Fire is very popular right now, as evidenced by the huge thread in this subforum, and I've read Game of Thrones, with plans to read the whole series in the near future if I can ever get my hands on them.
What are some of your favorite books, and what would you suggest? Doesn't have to be fiction, can be any genre!
