Best and Worst Books of 2003?

Posted by simoniker on from the printed-word-is-the-bird dept.

Thousandstars writes "I saw the article on the best and worst movies of 2003, and, being a literature geek, I thought it would also be appropriate to ask for the best and worst books of 2003. In fiction, Neal Stephenson's Quicksilver is toward the top of my best list. How about everyone else?"

    By far, the worst book I've (tried to) read this year would be this piece of crap. There are better soap operas that have characters that are more realistic. Stay away from this and the rest of Sara Douglas's books. "The best writer in Austrilia"? Wow! I'm glad I don't live there!

    Except Moore is a lying sack of shit. I wouldn't trust him to tell the truth if I asked him what's the time.

    For proof of his tendency to lie, analyze that movie work of fiction, "Bowling for Columbine". I will never again watch the Academy awards because they gave that movie "best documentary". In my world, a documentary should be based in fact.

  6. Try John Grisham if you like DRIVEL by Ars-Fartsica · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Stop by the Walden Books in your local airport for some other great drivel to sit aside Da Vinci code on your shelf. You might like the Nancy Drew or Hardy Boys series as well - the mysteries are about as complex as the moronic tripe in the Da Vinci Code.

    Ah, let's see...
    "(
    Why is that a moronic comment? If you are upset that Tolkien did not get enough credit [as you now claim], then why is it a moronic comment for someone to be ignorant of Tolkien's work?

    Come on, if you don't like the fact that people haven't been told about the books enough, why is it "MORONIC" for someone to be unaware of the books? Answer that please.

    Oh yeah, and the Holocaust wasn't against white people. It was against untermenschen or subhumans.
