Book swaps anyone?

I'm desperate enough to put my blog link on fb because I need books to read

Captain Corelli's Mandolin! War (world war 2), history, love, philosophical, well-paced, never cheesy.

Don't watch the movie though, it's absolute crap - even though it had Christian Bale.

ok! I shall go search for the book!!

Thanks babe. I know we have similar tastes!

[seecloud]

oh yeah, liz it's easier to ask you if you have it. Bring it on sat?

i have a few war/history themes.
can't escape from the classics like 1984, Animal Farm. very like English Lit classes but both are a good read, 1984 especially.
if you appreciate dry humour, please do read catch-22 by Thomas Heller(ithink. heller? keller? something like that). i love it to bits. easily the best book i've read in ages.

have those read those. yup.

hmm, catch-22 *google*

Thanks :)

WHICH OF MY WAR LIT BOOKS DO YOU WANT. Read Regeneration!! For thriller I have uh... Jeffrey Deaver? I like him. Haha. Oh and I have Mansfield Park. I think. Otherwise just throw me a title and I'll see if I have it 8D

HAHAHA I don't need your war lit text. Thanks babe. Ok, maybe I should go to your place one day to dig? heh :P

why don't you try murakami!! he is my goddd. start with 'norwegian wood', good if you like 60s pop culture, love, suicide etc and all aspects of trashy Jap culture.

I tried. But I didn't really like it? I tried to finish the book but I can't :X maybe I should try again~

[aerianta]

hahaha ok maybe too postmodern then. errrr actually i don't really know if we have similar book tastes, mine sometimes border on the bizarre 0_0

[seecloud]

yeah i was thinking we might have different taste. Just look at our writing styles. you are more the dreamy kind while I prefer to be more direct.

Hee, bizarre tastes.

Does that apply at other places as well? :P
