What was the last book you read?

[Mike]

L'étranger, by Albert Camus lol, for french exam work. It was surprisingly awesome ^.^

Un grito de amor desde el centro del mundo, by some Japanese guy

[Mike]

=-0 what's that about? lol

[NightmareMoon]

Well it means a cry of love from the center of the earth... so I'm just assuming the title is what it's about ;P

Thanks, NM. I was afraid that KingKivuli would delete my post before I could explain it.
It's basically about this guy that falls in love with this girl and they go out and blah blah, but then she has cancer and dies. But I didn't ruin it for you, you're informed of this since the first chapter, so the book is just about the memories the guy has and stuff.

[Mike]

neat-o. I assume there's an english translation somewhere?

i wasn't going to delete it. i don't like being singled out here. moka and zeke are also going to be applying the new language rule not just me

It's a little late to try to be nice.

Yeah, I guess there is an English translation somewhere, but I don't know the official translated title. The author is Kyoichi Katayama, and I think people in Japan liked it so much that there's a manga, a movie, and a TV series based on it.
If you ask me, it wasn't that good.

[Mike]

ah well

I read the Big Four by Agatha Christie recently, it's a great mystery novel ^.^ and really really funny

[SimbasMate]

It was a magazine, not a book but it was that fashion magazine called "Seventeen". It's onen of those girly lastest fashion magazines with all those nasty purfume samples that mae your eyes water and sneeze. xD
