The Satanic Verses by Salman Rushdie.

en.wikipedia.org/wik..._Satanic_Verses



Read this years ago. Great story-telling, colossal vocab.

P.S. Don't let your Muslim friends see you with a copy.

Just finished this one.

The Quantum and the Lotus: A Journey to the Frontiers Where Science and Buddhism Meet


It's published in the form of dialogue between Matthieu Ricard and Trinh Xuan Thuan . For a person who hasn't much exposure to Buddhism, the book was quite eye-opening.

Bad Samaritans: The Myth of Free Trade and the Secret History of Capitalism
by Ha-Joon Chang .



A must-read for those who have the slightest interest in development economics. Heavy emphasis is put on economic history and debunking neoliberalism. This is a highly recommended intellectual text.

Sin City series.

Comics but wth.

Thanks for this. Keep posting.

BOOKS ARE TOTALLY BETTER THAN MOVIES..........i was talking today to a colleague about the movie Dances with Wolves with Kevin Costner....i haven't seen the movie, but the book was pretty good.....same was with The girl with the dragon tattoo, The Da Vinci code, Journey to the Center of the Earth and many others..........

Love all kinds but Stephen king's books are some of my favorites..obviously I'm a horror fanatic

I like book about Buddism..also Frankstein..

It's been a while since I last read fiction. Just finished this one:
Bartimaeus: The Ring of Solomon by Jonathan Stroud .

Like others before me, I also recommend The Bartimaeus Trilogy .
