What book are you reading now?
I'm taking a break from reading Les Miserables, and am now reading some fantasy novelettes by Craig Halloran.

I am also reading "Children of the Awakening" about young siblings surviving an apocalypse setting. It's by Jeremy Laszlo. Before that I was re-reading Ordinary People by Judith Guest.

It wasn't an easy read. The author doesn't allow you to take a deep breath to prepare yourself for what was coming. He takes you directly to gory/cruel part on the very first page.

Shin's story was depressing. Who ever though that while we are sitting cozily in front of our computers, there are people who are suffering; screaming in agony in underground prison somewhere in North Korea.

Do you still remember the old man who shared the same prison with Shin? That old man left quite an impact to me. I want to know who he was. I want to know if he gets the opportunity to see the light again (I know it's mostly impossible but still). I want the old man to escape, live and be free.

I can talk about about this book for one whole day.

My next book is on holocaust.

I am currently reading Frank Herbert's Dune which is surprisingly similar to the movie adaptation. It's a damn good book.

My next book is on holocaust.

I do remember him, it is really sad to wonder what happens to him. And interesting to think of their bond, and what the descriptions of food must have been like for Shin. It's really hits me to think of people being born and raised in those camps, never knowing about life on the outside, never knowing how different their existence is from other people... It just is so heavy to think that people are raised thinking that is what life is...

Which holocaust book are you going to read? What about these terrible things interest you?

I keep meaning to start the second book in the Song of Ice and Fire series, as well as finish Casual Vacancy and DA: The Masked Empire.
