Terry Pratchett
The Colour of Magic -> The Light Fantastic -> Sourcery -> Mort -> Wyrd Sisters -> Guards! Guards! -> Eric -> Witches Abroad
-> Reaper Man (10/10) -> Ladies and Gentlemen -> Night Watch -> Interesting Times -> Maskerade -> Feet of Clay -> Hogfather -> Jingo -> The Truth -> Going Postal (in progress)

I'm starting to think I might be a bit addicted, but I don't have the willpower to finally switch from this author to something else yet.

Okay. But I would get bored. I was already getting a bit tired of reading about the rat, and there's less text here.
А, вот почему.

But Pratchett is funny, and you never get tired of him.

I think you can get tired of anything.

I was just talking to my dad, and he made a good comparison. King's style is "blood, guts, and gore," while Lovecraft's is "a hedgehog slowly appears from the fog."

I read thirteen volumes and then stopped. I should finish the rest sometime.

"Harry Potter")

Actually, I don't read it, I'm listening to the audiobook.

No. I haven't even heard of it.
Maybe I've heard of the surname Dontsova.

I'm reading "Aristotle in 90 Minutes." It's a rather brief biography with a short bibliography.

Here's that nonsense – http://coollib.net/node/270700. It's both a forum and links to, excuse my language, "books" from that forum. Not an advertisement. But if you're bored and want something to entertain you...

I watched the movie a long time ago, and I don't really remember it, only the plane, the blind girl, and the time-eating monsters, but despite being in preschool at the time, the theme intrigued me more than scared me. The other day, I read a few of King's stories, and I had a rather positive impression, so I decided that since I was in the mood for reading, I could read more of his work. After assessing the volume of "The Dark Tower," I realized that I'm not quite ready to tackle such a multi-volume epic, but then I saw this book, and everything else is a blur. I'm somewhere in the first third or fourth, and it's interesting.
Damn, I have all sorts of Asimov books planned, but I'm reading King instead, what a failure.

And yes, after this, I felt like I wanted to _fly_ on a plane. Not run away from the nearest airport at twice the speed of light, but actually fly O_o

Rereading

IMHO, this is the best thing published in print in recent years. Usually, I read on my e-reader what I download from the internet. Or, if it's a small volume, I read it directly from the monitor.

Basically, I bought it:

I've only read up to chapter 3 so far. It's full of magic and nonsense.
