Almost finished Heat 2 and really enjoying it. They way its written you can just picture the scenes/lighting that Mann would use.
LT42 Not the same without Al Pacino shouting improvised lines
Iain M. Banks - Surface Detail. Woah. That was pretty amazing. 600 pages, of which I did half today. Now my arse hurts from sitting down reading it.
One more Culture-book left. But before that some horror again, Gus Moreno - This Thing Between Us.
Homegrove Gus Moreno - This Thing Between Us
That was really disturbing. An easy read though, recommended for horror-folks.
I’m about 80% of the way through Irvine Welsh The Long Knives his latest release which is a follow up to Crime.
It’s alright but definitely not a classic 🫤
Dubman The Last House on Needless Street by Catriona Ward
C_J Cheers bud. I’ll add to the list. Has anyone read..Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin
Here’s one to get your teeth into chaps, takes 3000 pages to get going mind
With The Hydrogen Sonata just finished the whole Culture-series is now done by me. Second best sci-fi series ever done after Dan Simmons’ Hyperion Cantos. Next project starting William Gibson from the start with Neuromancer. My wife bought it for me for Christmas after being shocked I’ve not read him. Will again read other stuff between his books like I did with Banks. I find it best to vary stuff.
Homegrove Best Culture book having just reread them?
Paul Tremblay - The Cabin at the End of the World.
If the last two pages had ended differently this would have been a 5/5 book. As it is I thought it was pretty fucking great. M. Night Shyamalan has filmed it, and it’s out in March. If he follows the book closely it might be a great horror film.
Amps Use of Weapons or Excession.
JonQPublik I’ll have to re-read Shades of Grey before August
Just seen that my pre-order had been cancelled. Not sure why. Re-ordered. Release date: 6 July 2023.
Amps yeah, I saw its release date changed as well. I’ve still got plenty to read until then.
JonQPublik I saw its release date changed as well. I’ve still got plenty to read until then.
Just been changed again to Feb 2024 ☹️
Just finished the wolf, @JonQPublik & @Wally. Exhilarating final battle chapter but the deus ex machina lightning bolt felt like a pure cop out. Epilogue was great though.
rhouses Can’t say anything about the lightning bolt. The Spider is equally brutal and satisfying. I’m about ⅔ in The Cuckoo, (the finale).
JonQPublik The Spider is loaded up, looking forward to it.
After loading up my Kindle for my trip. I then had the biggest Reg I’ve had in a long while. Somehow I left it on the plane flying from the UK to Dubai. Hopefully it will get handed into lost property.. I’m absolutely Fewmin.
Dubman FFS Dubbers!
Backed up to t’cloud though so you could read off another device if you’ve taken one.
Thinking more of a Gary as reading off the phone would be a massive plum-ache!
Mad_Cyril Got an email today saying they may found it.
