The past 4 books I've read:Louder Than Hell: The Definitive Oral History Of Metal - Great book on the genre from the early days of Sabbath, Alice Cooper to the Nu-Metal of Korn & Disturbed

Ready Player One - Birthday gift from Elderboy, excellent book, can't wait for the Spielburg film next year.

The Gunslinger (book #1 of The Dark Tower series), This was a difficult read, quite confusing, but I wanted to read it before the film comes out.

The Drawing Of The Three (book # 2 of The Dark Tower series) - This was 10xs better than book 1, had me on the edge of my seat a few times.

Just started Waste Lands (book #3 of The Dark Tower series)

Wastelands is the high point of the series, and my favorite King book. No, wait, Wizard and Glass is the best. Wastelands is second best.

Just finished

The Waste Lands (The Dark Tower book #3)

Just finished book 3

Didn't enjoy it as much as book 2, 2nd part of book about I didn't care for, it was interesting, I just didn't care about the character I wanted to keep reading about Roland, Eddie and Susanna.

Once that part was over though it became interesting again and man what a cliffhanger!!!

Onto book 4

I have a neat idea, let's all add our Goodreads names, so we can follow/recommend/encourage each other....What'd say?

Mine is

Well Jason K. I looked for you, but there are several of you.

On the site in the top right hand side is a people icon, click on that, then on the right side a little down you'll see it says
FIND FRIENDS FROM (Gmail, Yahoo, Facebook, Twitter and friends of friends) or just find by name or email

I'm only 3/4 done with book 3 and I feel that I'm dragging myself along mentally because I feel some cool shit is going to happen, and then another 100 pages goes by and nothing haha
