WOW.


i couldn't actually bring myself to finish that, it was one of the most turgid, iuninspiringly boring things i've ever read, impressive from an imaginative point of view, but horribly written, it's just like reading a big long list of names without any decent story

NO NO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!

Perserverance !
I can't count how many times I've wanted to throw this fucking book out the window, because yeah, it's painstaking beyond words, and I have had to re-read several pages over and over again.

But it's soooooo good. I'm actually now getting into the Sauron - One Ring era, which is good, because I'm interested in his history.

Then I'll attempt The Hobbit.

Of Mice and Men. Probably the worst book I've ever read, but I'll finish it nonetheless.

I'm curious as to what the fucking POINT IS.

THEORY OF ORGANIZATION : RULES AND POWER
ANALYSIS OF FRENCH POLITICAL ADMINISTRATION
by Erhard Friedberg (my teacher at Sciences Po) - he is austrian ! like some people here !

it's a fun book
during my 20 minutes metro ride every morning i get to read ... 2 pages !! yay !!
i like it when i have to read 500 times the same sentence.

im also re-reading the lord if the rings, now that the hype is gone, but all these awful images from the movies are still in my head, it ruined it for me.
i hate PJ. i wish king kong sucks (actually it does su.... i can't say anything, Ubi Soft would kill me)
