So yeah I decided to make one of these threads. Post any books, comics, novels and/or stories that you are currently reading. I just recently got back into comics and graphic novels and had picked up the first 2 series of Ed Brubaker's Criminal (Coward #1-5 and Lawless #6-10). I really dug the character Tracy Lawless from the Lawless series that I had just bought The Sinners #1-5 which is a standalone story with Tracy again. Criminal
I'm wanting to get a puppy here in the next couple of months after my lease renews. the pet deposit is stupid
Just started on Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind. Japanese comic. Next real book I read will probably be Watership Down.
Between books at the moment. I just finished The Blood of Elves, which is the first book in The Witcher saga, by Andrzej Sapkowski. (I've already read the preceding short story collections.) I'm waiting for the next book, Times of Contempt to be translated, but that won't be out until August. May have to give in and read the fan translation instead. While I wait, I managed to get the entire collection of the Doctor Who: Virgin New Adventures books, which I am assured are quite good, so I may read those instead. Apart from that, just a ton of fat reference books for work . . .

God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater. Kurt Vonnegut is a badass. Oh, also The Design of Everyday Things. Basically a psychology book on consumerism and a pretty relevant to anything design related, even game design or graphic and web design.
Shit son, the book was even titled The Psychology of Everyday Things during its first release. I actually don't even know what you're implying with your 4chan text.
Nobody really said it was science, and something not being science doesn't make it any less. It IS the study of the mind, as every -ology is the study of something. While psychology may not be a concrete field, it is still an extremely useful field of study.
I think the last time I talked to someone with a psych degree was when I ordered coffee the other day at the star bucks drive through
I don't know how I missed your post, but Watership Down is my all time favorite book. Wow. You are making all kinds of good choices!
Haus ohne Hüter, by Heinrich Böll (a translation doe because my German sucks) It's about two people from different social-economic backgrounds growing up in post-war Germany without a father
Rereading the Unincorporated Man series, as well as some Charles Stross, depending on what I feel like picking up at the time.
