    What-cha reading?

    If I'm not at work, taking pictures, or on the net, I'm reading something ........ anything, read my signature

    So far this year, I've read:

    Finished reading War and Peace by Leo Tolstoy :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

    The Garnet Bracelet (A collection of short stories) by Alexander Kuprin :thumbsup:

    House of the Dead by Fyodor Dostoevsky :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

    Theatre by W. Somerset Maugham :thumbsup:

    The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

    A book about all of the Russian Tsar's (can't remember the author) :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

    Started reading The Essential Tales of Chekhov (I'll get back to it).

    Started reading The Odyssey by Homer (I might get back to it).

    Started reading Doctor Zhivago by Borris Pasternak (don't think I'll get back to it, couldn't watch the movie either).

    Currently reading For Whom the Bell Tolls by Hemingway and love it so far. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

    Dostoevsky and Hemingway are my two favorite authors.... anyway, what are you reading currently? What would you recommend to someone?

    "how full is your bucket" ---pretty much common sense---but a good read

    "I was not trying to be shocking, or to be a pioneer.
    I wasn't trying to change society, or to be ahead of my time.
    I didn't think of myself as liberated, and I don't believe that I did anything important.
    I was just myself. I didn't know any other way to be, or any other way to live."
