    How often do you read?

    Yeah, it's the same with me, i also usually don't read after i got home from work. The easy solution for this problem, for me, was: I started to read in work ;) and because of that i usually finish one book per week, because i can (most of the time) read 30 to 50 pages on one day, just because...

    I just finished reading...

    A few days ago i finished The Trial by Franz Kafka. It was an amazing book, really a great experience. Sometimes it was very ironic and, although it deals with serious subject, it's hard to always take it serious, just like Josef K. sometimes have troubles taking this entire Trial serious! But...

    The most famous you've never read

    If you are interested in sci-fi i think especially Douglas Adams is a must read ;) but also Philip K. Dick and Stanislaw Lem, especially Solaris [though, i can only guess it, because i also haven't read him :D ] I do consider Lem and Dick a must read especially for sci-fi! Well and since...
