Dan Brown - The Lost Symbol

Read all his books and loved each and everyone.

[crazybalhead]

I find Dan brown to be quite a boring writer. Angels and Demons was ok, but the rest were kinda shitty. Haven't read the lost symbol yet.

[MG Man]

Razzie, I got carried away and also bought Einstein's Paper on Relativity too
lol

[Trini Hookah]

Green Days by the River by Michael Anthony..for ol' times sake

[crazybalhead]

While we on the topic of books, anybody else find Nigel R Khan stores to be one of the best customer experiences in trinidad???

Walk in and it's quiet with a little lounge or world music playing softly in the background. Slight smell of incense. Books are well laid out and easy to browse, free coffee tea. FULL REFUND POLICY. Hear nah...that alone in our usually stink service environment!!!

Nice little bookmarks with every book. Knowledgeable and friendly staff

I love that store.

[snowman]

If there's one in Ellersie, You're right. The service is Beautiful. I could stay there all day lounging and reading. very comfortable atmosphere.

lol

"On the elctrodynamics of moving bodies"? if so, i have no shame begging for a borrows or copy

read books and articles on general and special relativity, but it would be interesting, to say the least, to read the actual work...plus i think i did enough background reading to not get entirely lost


where do you obtain your reading material? amazon?

there are some epic references Christopher Hitchens made in 'god is not great' that i'd love to get my hands on...need to run through the book again and pluck them out...

[MG Man]

I have Hitchens book, bought it for me for Xmas last year
You can have a borrow if u want
The Einstein one is the actual paper he published on Special and General, not the condensed reader friendly version
Take a look:

cosign this with TWO pens...Nigel have it hard...got alot of titles there recently i honestly wouldn't have expected to find on the shelf in a trini bookstore.

more periodicals are needed though...no surf, fishing, barely any auto mags available...quality toilet reading getting harder to find yes...

i get my Discover mags and aquarium hobbyist mags from a pharmacy in mayaro, not sure if thats funny or sad..

[crazybalhead]

I usually stock up on toilet literature when I pass through Miami airport copuple times for the year. Haven't travelled this year yet though, first time in a loooong time haven't been travelling. Usually pick up a mag or two in Superpharm other wise.

absolutely bess...definitely will invest in this book, good to keep epic intellects in your library, even if it takes ages to understand the material in its entirety lol. wouldn't mind getting a book on the quantum theory as well...that sheit is confusing in its simplest form!

the hitchens book i already have, finished it a two weeks ago...man has an addictive writing style and fiery pen, loved it!

[VexXx Dogg]

LOL@ Toilet literature.

Mine is Sixth Speed issues 1-10, plus assorted Zorce, R&T, Car&Driver et al.

Need some updated mags tho, reading about the debut of the Supra or the 1993 Ferrari Spider Test drive getting kinda boring.

You all ever heard of 'My Bones and My Flute' by Edgar Mittelholzer a Guyanese novelist? It was about a family who moved into the forest in Guyana and there was a mysterious flute sound at times, but only certain ppl in the family was able to hear it and they were trying to figure out why.

It wasnt all that, but I find myself to enjoy some of these Caribbean authors
