Books 2009, not counting non-fiction
( 1-14 )15. McCarthy - The Road
I don't think I understood this book. It was beautifully written, but the message didn't reach me. It just made me feel stupid. :| I guess the book is supposed to be metaphorical or something, but I just DIDN'T GET IT. McCarthy has created an interesting world, though. In my imagination, after a catastrophe killing tons of people the remaining people would work together to build a better world, not turn against each other.
16. Orwell - Animal Farm
Now, this is an impressive book! I've never read Orwell. It is very thought-provoking and challenged my worldview, and I recommend it to everyone who hasn't read it yet :) Though I admit, it's a "simple" book - easy reading, quite straightforward. Nevertheless, I liked it very much.
Now reading: Fitzgerald - the Great Gatsby and Tartt - Little Friend.
