Niniel - Club Leader Share Posted September 15, 2020 (edited) I saw this somewhere else and thought that it would be fun to try it here. You write the titles of two books - one that you like and one that you dislike. The rest of us can then guess which one you like or don't like. It might lead to a discussion about those books as well. You don't need to wait for someone else to guess before you write a post of your own. Of course there will be points for everyone playing. I'll start: American Gods - Neil Gaiman Stardust - Neil Gaiman Edited September 15, 2020 by Niniel Link to post Share on other sites
Illian Tear - Member Share Posted September 16, 2020 Like American Gods, hate Stardust? The 5th Season - N. K. Jemisin And to keep the theme of Neil Gaiman going: The Ocean at the End of the Lane - Neil Gaiman Link to post Share on other sites
Niniel - Club Leader Author Share Posted September 16, 2020 Correct. It's more about like/not like because I have no strong feelings for them but I couldn't understand all of the positive reviews for Stardust. Hm... I haven't read any of them so I will just guess that you like The Ocean at the End of the Lane and hate The 5th Season. Link to post Share on other sites
Illian Tear - Member Share Posted September 16, 2020 I haven't read Stardust, but I've read American Gods and I liked it. You are also correct, I couldn't get into the book. Link to post Share on other sites

Niniel - Club Leader Author Share Posted September 20, 2020 (edited) What kind of book is The Ocean at the End of the Lane? Edited September 20, 2020 by Niniel Link to post Share on other sites
Illian Tear - Member Share Posted September 20, 2020 Like Dune, hate Ender's Game? And The Ocean at the End of the Lane is a weird book that's all flashback. A guy is going back to his childhood home, and stops by the house of one of his friends where he remembers the things that happened there, but immediately forget them again when he leaves.

Niniel - Club Leader Author Share Posted September 21, 2020 Hm... sounds kind of weird but also interesting. Actually, the other way around. I don’t love Ender’s game but I liked most of the story. I could not get into Dune. I have tried twice but I just can’t. Maybe I will watch the new movie instead. Link to post Share on other sites
Illian Tear - Member Share Posted September 21, 2020 That's fair. Most people I've talked to online dont like Ender's Game because of OSC's views outside of the book. Link to post Share on other sites
