Favorite Book/Book Series

[ṼṏẌṏḭḊ]

What sort of writing/books/series are you guys into? Feel free to share and reccommend anything that interest you.

My favorite book is "The Jaguar That Roams The Mind" by Robert Tindall, and it's basically the story of Roberts life, having a harsh childhood, growing up a drug addict and basically being unhappy with where he was in life. After a long battle with heroin addiction and being unable to get past it with conventional techniques, he turned to travelling and looking at different cultures in order to try and find a better life for himself.

After travelling to many different countries and living with all sorts of different cultures and medicinal practices he eventually finds his way to a Peruvian shaman who offers to let Robert study under him and partake in Ayahuasca ceremonies. Teaching him how and when ceremonies should be performed, how to deal with different situations, and techniques for guiding others through the ceremonies.

Some parts of the story are quite hard to describe without actually reading the book, but it's a great story of a spiritual journey filled with some very happy and very sad tales of people from all walks of life.

I highly reccomend the book if you're looking for something a bit different, or have an interest in spiritual aspects of life.

I honestly do not read as much as I would like to, like most things in life. TV shows, movies, games, books. A book series that I'm sure is good though is called The Unicorn Chronicles. You can read a little about it on the wiki.

I've never read Discworld, but I have seen some of the movies and I've been told that the books are better

@Paradox, I'll check it out, I've read everything in my bookshelf so anything else is good.

Never read anything Star Wars before, and it's probably stupid to say that it never even crossed my mind that there may be more than fanfic + rpg stuff lol

Will look into it, are there a lot of books or do they just get released slowly?

I've never read any Lovecraft stuff before, one of my mates used to be a fan and tried to get me to read some, but it just never happened.

Nope, there are a lot of books in the series - around 70 or so, at my last count.

Although this does take into account things like mangas, and the guide books that act more like a set of small, short entries that give backstory to a lot of areas within the series' lore. If you exclude those, and only count the “proper” books, then it’s more like 50-55.

My favorite book is A Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel García Márquez, but my favorite book series would be A Song of Ice and Fire (as cliché as it is).
