    I can very much recommend "Mythos" and "Heroes" by Stephen Fry. They are two books about Greek mythology - one covering the gods and how the earth came to be, the other covering the tales told of the Greek heroes, including Heracles and so on. Stephen Fry has a rather sarcastic writing style (it's not the most fitting word, but I can't think of a better one right now) and time flies by when you read both of those books.

    I just finished Pride and Prejudice and Zombies.
    Olden tale plus a whole bunch of blood and gore.
    Having no olden English in the book is a bonus

    Nice! How is Dark Tower series? I want to get into Dark Tower but I really dislike series, I would rather prefer reading stand alone books with clear beginning and end.

    'Ordinary Men' by Christopher Browning. Its a historical account of a german Reserve Police battalion that was stationed in Poland to carry out the Final Solution. Its a pretty incredible and chilling story of how normal men turned into tools of genocide

    I am reading Can't Hurt Me by David Goggins.

    It's a motivational book with the story of the upbringing of a kid who was bullied and discriminated and forego his victim mentality to embrace the struggle and move up in life.

    There is a lot of real-ness in the book. I would highly recommend it.

    I'm reading Woman Warrior by Maxine Hong Kingston, it's about being a Chinese first-generation immigrant living in the US. I'm not Chinese but it's really interesting, the writing's beautiful. I'm also reading Murakami's 1Q84 and Hugo's Les Miserables.

    I bought a f**k ton of books in the last 4 months and I hope I'll be able to go through all of them. I used to read a lot, like 2-3 books a day but I don't read actual books that much anymore because I keep reading fan fiction.

    Nice, I've just got Troy by Stephen Fry to read, looking forward to it!

    Currently just finished Belgariad series by David Eddings and about to start Mallorean series. Like nice easy LOTR lol.
