I'm thinking I am not sleeping enough.
Yesterday I took two naps, and felt better.

yeah, that might be it. the times i've had a headache, sleeping definitely helps!

Finished my first book!
O Mandarim, by Eça de Queirós. I read it in Portuguese, there's an English translation called "The Mandarin".

yaaay mdom! =)

Moonshadow 01-15-2017 11:06 PM

good for you mdom! I finished my first one too, and I only have 30 pages left on Hyperion.

@trystan: I'm loving Hyperion, in the last 2 days I've read over 200 pages. It is very good, I have decided to read the sequel.

trystan830 01-15-2017 11:10 PM

oh awesome, Moonshadow! =)

Moonshadow 01-15-2017 11:41 PM

Yeah, you kinda encouraged me, you spoke of some of his other books and I did a little research on him and he is awesome.

I don't know if I told you that I read Drood by him and it was quite a trip.

trystan830 01-15-2017 11:58 PM

i haven't read Drood.

there's a book, i don't know if it's by Simmons or not - i took a look at a list of his books and it might be Flashback (?) - there's a drug that enables the user to relive a happy memory, and the narrator's mom (or someone) is addicted and i think that's part of the plot... maybe?

Moonshadow 01-16-2017 12:19 AM

I think that is his book.
Just checked it is his book.
Got very mixed reviews on Amazon.

trystan830 01-16-2017 12:21 AM

oh i very rarely pay attention to reviews. i love it, and the reviewers hate it. same with movies

Moonshadow 01-16-2017 11:52 PM

You know I am sure you are right about that.
I have bought books or seen movies that are raved about, and I couldn't stand them.

trystan830 01-17-2017 12:10 AM

i enjoy pretty much everything i watch (movies and tv shows) and read.

it annoys people who want to bash on it, and here i am, "i love everything!" XD

Moonshadow 01-18-2017 12:09 AM

I don't love everything, I am very critical especially of books.
But I carefully choose what I watch and read so I am rarely disappointed.

trystan830 01-18-2017 12:30 AM

yeah, it's rare for most people to like everything.... but i'm weird that way. XD

trystan830 01-19-2017 11:41 AM

book one done... and my list has been updated! (i'm post #7)

Moonshadow 01-19-2017 11:58 PM

Trystan:that is not weird, it is nice! I wish I wasn't so critical.

I've read two books so far I should update.
