I like the books of dr Joseph Murphy and Thomas Troward. What books do you like?

I've read and recommend a great, very very concise mystical story (2 pages), which goes through all the Major Arcana Tarot cards - I suppose this is one of the closest things to a mystical initiation one could get legally on the internet. Read only the text under "Basic Tarot Story", but don't read the "Basic Tarot Meaning" and "Thirteen's Observations" which are probably written by an another author and are full of superstition. The story starts with the "Fool" - to read the next card scroll down to "onto the next card",etc. The symbolism here given may be innaccurate or accurate - it does not matter now: what matters is it's beuty.

You'll need Wikipedia to actually see the Tarot cards: http://en.wikipedia....ki/Major_Arcana
The Story is here: http://www.aeclectic...ings/fool.shtml

My remarks about the story:

Nothing is not.

I thought the title was "Boobs you like" and for a second I thought I finally had something to contribute.

In all seriousness I am a sci-fi/fantasy geek, and I also don't try very hard to find books to read. So you've all heard of my favourites: The Hobbit, Ender's Game, The House of the Scorpion, Eragon.

Well, other than some of the books posted above I'd say my favorite series are The Dresden Files (It's about a wizard PI!) and Dune (the one with the sandworms)

So yes, I also prefer sci-fi and fantasy.

The Hobbit, Ender's Game...


Hell yes, son!


The books I have read so far this year include the Night Circus and The Art of War (my second time reading through it).

I think Cave Story is quite capable of giving you mental issues. Just look at some of our fine members on the forum.

I've been reading some of Camus lately, I really enjoyed both Le'Etranger and The Plague. He's notorious for writing with an Absurdist mentality, it's fascinating stuff.

For me at least D:

Sorry, I only really read classic literature
Eragon's neat too, though, I almost care enough to get the newest one

I only read classic fantasy or some fantasy parody.
Modern literature is unbearable to me.
