I'm out in Budapest on a scholarship and bought a couple of Dawkins and Hitchens books. Just found out that my roomate for the month is a theologian. Should be fun. :corn


Sycsa is perhaps the most brilliant and insightful man I have ever encountered.

Wow, that was a great read. If there are any Zappa fans checking into this thread. I can't recommend this enough.

The Wise Man's Fear by Patrick Rothfuss. This is quite good, actually. I'm just on the middle - let's see if it can live up to the first one :corn.

You know, I never read, and I feel kinda ashamed of that. I really would like to have a new hobby and I think reading would be a fun one. It's something that can relax your mind and make you really think at the same time. I'm 19 years old, recommend me something good! I was always really picky when it came to reading, but I honestly think I never gave anything a chance. It's time for a change.

Oh, and sorry if that's off-topic, I realized I was in the wrong thread probably.. But I will still contribute..

It's very difficult to recommend something without knowing your interests. I'd be happy to recommend something if you can express what types of things you're interested in.
