I just finished, Brave New World - Huxley (still not sure what I think about it. Parts of it were very good but mostly I am just not happy how it ended....)

Just started reading Angels and Demons....mostly because it was around. Pretty good in the first 40 pages.

Jake brave new world used to be one of my favorites. The rest of huxley's books are trash though.

alright I will stay away from the others. I really liked the conditioning and how they "grew" people for a certain task. Interesting stuff. Any suggestions with similar type books?

Big fan of 1984

[Turf1600]

By similar books do you mean dystopia? If so, no. Maybe try Fahrenheit 451?

Jake brave new world used to be one of my favorites. The rest of huxley's books are trash though.

What he said. Super book. Read it in one sitting. Went on to read some of Huxley's other books and was always disappointed.

Currently reading "In the Hand of Dante" by Nick Tosches which is great. sort of an auto-biography by an angry diabetic self-educated ex-mafia dude.

I recently read the Hagakure and the Book of Five Rings, somebody else mentioned one of those. They are pretty nuts. Japan seems really unusual based on those books.

Also recently read "The City of Falling Angels" by John Berendt, who wrote midnight in the garden of good and evil. It's about venice, it was good. Also read James Frey's newest book "Bright Shiny Morning", which was interesting.

I'm glad there is a book thread, it's interesting to see what people are reading.
