Modern Good Reads discussion

Hey there :)

I would like to recommend two nice books I have read lately:

(Click on the covers to access the book page on GoodReads)



1 – Requiem For the Fallen, by Tabitha Vohn

It has a very interesting writing style, a mix of prose and poetry and it is somehow philosophical to some extent. Redemption, self-realization, acceptance, love, faith and respect (or self-respect) are some of the themes you encounter in this book.



2 – A Bloody, Bloody mess, in the Wild, Wild West, by Justin Bienvenue

Not your usual Western book... If you like B-movies, gore, mayhem, crude and fun stuff, this book is for you! It’s been a long time since I had this much fun in a reading... The beginning is a bit slow, but if you keep through, you will be rewarded with the bloody action in the story!



At the moment, I am reading Days of Throbbing Gristle, by Kevin Cole. 80% done as I write this and I can say this is one of the best novels I have ever read in my 3 decades of life... Can’t wait to make a review of this one as well!

Isis, if you look in the genres you will find some threads to post your recommendations in. Please move these there and I can add them to the bookshelves. Also others are more likely to see them there. Thank you! :)

A general reminder to Authors, only promote your own books in the author threads. Thank you. Anywhere else gets deleted.

If you like fantasy, I've recently discovered the Shadowfell trilogy and I'm really enjoying them.

Lynne, thanks for the tip as well :)

No worries. :-)

I'd like to recommend my las read. It was so amazing that I'm still thinking about it.Grayson by Lisa Eugene. The hero is schizophrenic, but the subject matter is deal with in a wonderful way.

I would like to recommend one of my recent reads. A good novel for the month of October, The Phantom of the Opera.

I went into this book after having read a spin-off called Phantom by Susan Kay, and having seen the movie and the Broadway play. I was surprised at how very different each version is. I must say the original by Gaston Leroux was not my favourite. I disliked the way he portrayed the characters. It made them seem silly and spoiled, almost childish. It was another stroke off my Classics TBR list though. :)I am recommending it because I would like to see if anyone else notices the differences as much as I did, and if they agree or disagree in my opinion of the characters.

Hi all, don't forget to post one recommendation in the various genre groups,these get added to the MGR bookshelves!
