I find some parts of the "Heroes chat" quite amusing.

"Pride and Prejudice" – read
now reading "Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2. Complete Guide", 1457 pages, damn it.

Terms of the license agreement. In short, that annoying stuff that appears during installation :D

In short, I finished reading this nonsense during the installation. I don't recommend it; it's complete garbage.

I spent two days reading it, though!
I also read a lot and shared it where needed. I flooded the thread with posts, but couldn't stop.

And I read what Ment posted in the right place. It was funny, I liked it.

Rereading the hero chat log :D. Every time, the topic about caterpillars from Amka (who was Nazga, as I understand) makes me laugh.

"The Art of War" by Sun Tzu.

Cleo Naitis - Summer in the Empire style.

Daniil Andreev -- "The Rose of the World".

I read Scott's book, "The Voice of the Missing." Before that, I read "Ender's Game," of course, but I particularly enjoyed the latter for its unique and powerful psychological depth. I haven't read anything like that in a long time.

"Xenocide" and "Children of the Mind" are good additions. I especially liked "Xenocide," although the ending might not be for everyone. It's a bit too metaphysical!

Frank Herbert - "Dune Messiah".

"Notre-Dame de Paris" by Hugo.
I've finished two out of eleven parts, and I'll slowly continue reading.

The author has a unique writing style. I understand that he wrote it in defense of the ancient building, which was once considered for demolition, but some chapters are more suitable for a treatise on architecture than for a work of fiction. The descriptions of events, on the other hand, are very appealing; the author seems to be having a dialogue with the reader, skillfully drawing attention to the necessary moments.

I wouldn't recommend finishing it either. Because no one advised me to abandon it, and as a result, I'm psychologically traumatized for life (((((

I also read this epic work yesterday. When I saw that Vitka was starting his reflections on the magnificence of Paris and other nonsense, I skipped a few pages. Perhaps that's why I managed to keep my sanity intact, unlike Ment. So, the book was read normally; it really has a very interesting style, and it somehow reminded me of Cervantes. Overall, it's a decent work, although the only character who evoked even a small amount of sympathy and understanding in me was Claude Frollo, even though he's supposedly an anti-hero and not a very good guy. But he's also not quite right and, in general, a European. The book is about wild Europeans who are all drooling over a gypsy girl, who, unexpectedly, is also European. And I really didn't like the scene with the mother and daughter. It's frankly unnecessary in this already overloaded work.
