What I am reading now - Steemit posts

Re-steemed

Oh gosh, The Foundation series by Asimov! I haven't read that in years and it's time for a revisit. Love Dan Brown's books. The Dark Tower I read because a friend recommended it as his favorite but it isn't mine. Will always love the Lord of the Rings. Have read then re-read all of the GRR Martin books, every year. Right now re-reading The Dresden Files series by Jim Butcher, I also own and re-read all of the 'In Death' series by J. D. Robb. Love Terry Pratchett!
I love to read!
The book that made the biggest impact on me when I was in my teens was 'The Fountainhead' and then 'Atlas Shrugged' by Ayn Rand.

Oh, and I highly recommend James A. Michener's lesser-known work, 'The Source' about an archaeological dig in Israel.

Baghavad Gita.
A book about a magician.
The Rational Male

Best book I've ever read this year: None
Best one I've ever read: 1984
One of my favorites: Scott Pilgrim

Hello bunnypuncher and friends hope everyone is doing well

Congrats winners! I have read Rich Dad, poor dad recently and it is a brilliant introduction to personal finance which I would recommend to everyone to read.

The best book I've read this year, has been the best I've read in all my short life: Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand.

Although I also liked it a lot 1984 by Orwell and: And Then There Were Non by Agatha.

The best book I read this year is: 1984 written by George Orwell.
It is a fictional world for 1984 where it is governed by 3 dictatorships, it shows how the control over its population is so much that despite the damage it does to them, they manage to be loved by them.

One of the best books I have read is the Godfather, written by Mario Puzzo. I think there's no need to explain why, it's just a classic.

The Tudor diamond written by Will Whitaker would say it's my favorite book. It is an espionage novel set in the England of Charles V, this takes advantage of the war that reigns in Europe to extend his empire, while pacts an alliance with the Pope in Italy. Only England can face it. At thirty-six, Henry VIII presides over an opulent court, and entrusts to Richard Dansey, a young and ambitious goldsmith, the difficult mission of finding the perfect jewel for Ana Bolena, his last conquest.
This journey takes Richard from Venice to Rome, and throughout Europe, while being involved in the artful intrigues of the court of the Tudors.

1984 is a great book, reminds me of socialism.

Is that the book shows what is really socialism. Here in Venezuela you can see how the system is a faithful copy of what happens in the book.

Venezuela is the proof that socialism doesn't work. The government follows all the rules of Karl Marx's manifesto and Castro ideologies.

havent read any this year, keep getting interupted.. but as a kid, use to like john wynhamss - chocky, last good book i'd read was j.g. ballard - high rise in which they eventually made a film on it, which captured the book well, before that was albert einsteins - the world as i see it

Get rid of your TV set! In place later, you can install a beautiful bookshelf.

The old book is a new book for those who have not read it yet.

lately I have not had time to read new things. but if I'm reading a very good comic it's called The wicken and the divene by Kieron Gillen, Jamie McKelvie, Wilson, Cowles

When you have knowledge, you must teach it to others.

A book like a ax for ice frozen within us.

Science only moves slowly, crawling from one point to another.

The only best protection against the hard days is to increase knowledge in the easy times.

We read to know that we are not alone.

I should be angry. But the silencer again. Because it's useless. Did not change anything. Anger makes the distance between us. Spread the long way and burn all that remains. That's why I prefer to be quiet and calm down for a moment. When I get upset from you. Because, that's much better. Instead of letting go of anger and making the whole thing torn apart.

A book is like a flower garden that is carried in a bag.

Science is a flashlight that illuminates the path of dark life.

Do not disappear again. Because your loss is destroying the mood. Do not leave without further news, because your keeps always leave you lonely. If you can not strengthen me by being by my side. Do not frustrate me with your uncertain existence. If we can not meet every time. At least try not to wait too long. Because if we are right in love each other. We will never allow a whole heart to become wounded.

Can you convince me without growing doubt in you? You know very well, once half my heart was too crushed. Try to strengthen me by emphasizing you believe all this. If you hesitate-because the wound was too deep-how can I be strong myself. Doubts often give rise to other doubts.

There's a point I feel I just need myself. Hugging myself. Calming the anxiety that is in the chest. Convincing even the anxieties will soon subside. Then lecture my lips smile-whatever is going on. I need strength from within myself; which reinforces in all circumstances. Not going to drop and degrade even if I fail to get what I aspire to. Probably true, I just need myself. Catch all the dreams. The one who is far away, who is almost locked, is still to be fought for. So, be strong myself. This path still needs all those beliefs.

May you be good for me. Friends who reduce me to do evil like in the past. Someone who accepts steps to go to new things. Something that brought change to me. Who does not go though know, many mistakes I've done in days gone by. You still want to grow. Despite my understanding, I once fell. If today I still look bad in behaving. Bring on the good. Though slowly. At least, we have a more beautiful goal at last.

There is no stop word to study, because every time until we die we always need knowledge

If there is someone invested without a science, if he is lucky, it's just a matter of luck.

If you always fail to do something, it means there is a science that you do not know yet, but you should know.

All book is my like..

Be a knowledgeable person, so that you, your family, and your environment will be better.

You can not achieve science except with six things that are smart, always curious, steadfast, have stock in the study, guidance from the teacher and in a long time.
