    I've read to page 70 (chapter 8) of 1984. Every other page I think "this is boring, I should stop reading." But every page after that I think "no, this is great, keep going."

    Very intellegent post.

    I'm reading Brave New World and I love it. It's ingenious. I'll probably read Island afterward (not directly afterward I have a trip to go on), as Eckhart Tolle mentioned...

  4. Does one learn to sniff out the books they'd like before reading them?

    I was wondering if one becomes better at picking which books they'll like before starting to read them as they read more and more.

    I remember in high school literature class learning that there...

    I don't know, people definitely do have different reactions to it. I think people accept it in different degrees based on their life situation.

    A New Earth was fantastic, but I found The Power Of Now to be slightly better because it sets more of a foundation.

    Does "fourth sentence" include the sentence that the page starts midway through? I'm assuming no. Anyway:

    "The present moment holds the key to liberation." The Power Of Now by Eckhart Tolle. As I...
  10. Are there any other Eckhart Tolle fans here?

    I am a huge fan of the contemporary philosopher Eckhart Tolle. His teachings are something I try to incorporate into my everyday life. I find it ingenious how his books show the way to inner peace...
  11. Thank You. :)

    Thank You. :)
  12. Lord of the Rings didn't hit the spot. Should I read The Hobbit?

    After about a month of reading (I'm a slow reader and probably only read it an hour or so a day on average), I have come to the second last chapter of Lord of The Rings and will probably finish it...
