Illuminatus: So, I've finally finished The Cuckoo's Calling by Robert Galbraith (who is supposedly, J.K. Rowling) and I confess that it was disappointing. Yes, it had this interesting plot with such potential but I was disappointed that the story wasn't what I expected. There was so much description and narration, and then some characters speak a variety of English I've never heard of before. I don't know what to say about the ending, except that although I was sated, I wasn't satisfied. I rate the book 4 of 5. *shrug*
Anyway, I started reading The Storyteller by Jodi Picoult. Yesterday. Now at Page 51...

Read d storyteller, 'tis good

A Song Of Ice And Fire -Book 3
Re: What Are You Reading Right Now And What Page Are You? by Illuminatus(m): 8:43am On Jul 14, 2014
Finished The Storyteller yester-night and it an excellent rebound novel (from my disappointing relationship with The Cuckoo's Calling). I liked the plot in general, but what really kept me turning the pages faster and faster is the story of the uporiry(vampire) within the story of dealing with the evil that was done to one's race two generations ago. At the final page, I was contented.
Now reading And The Mountains Echoed by Khaled Hosseni. Page 17.

Richard north peterson's EXILE. The book is top-notch!

I just finished reading 'hunger games' by Susanne Collins. I hate reading science fiction but this book has totally change my view.

one of the reasons I hate science fictions is my inability to relate with the story lines especially when the authors start playing with scientific words. But the author of this book inject 'humanity' to his/her Story. Courage, defiance, freedom, love, death, greed and so much more.

There are still some scientific terms I didn't understand but on scale of 10, I will give it a 8.

As far as Science Fiction goes, The Hunger Games trilogy doesn't rate 8 for me, more like 5. Robin Cook and Michael Critchon have written books with more relatable plots...

I've never seen Micheal Critchon as a science fiction writer until now. If he's, then he's definitely better than Collins. I've not read cooke's book but he is now on my list of must read.

no one writes sci-fi better than Crichton. Timeline is still one of the best sci-fi I ever read.

Do we have a fan of Rick Riordan here? Having read his Percy Jackson series, I'm about to proceed with the rest but they're a bit confusing

Reading The Shadow Throne, which is Book 2 in The Shadow Campaigns Series by Django Wexler, very very entertaining; I'm already dreading the Wait FOR The next Installment.
