Do you know any of these books?

in #life4 years ago

Hi Everyone,

A short break sharing the rest of my Japan travel. A friend of ours is doing their annual clean up back home and knowing my other half's new craze, they are trying to see which books they want to offload will suit what we wanted. The last 3-4 weeks since I have been back from Japan he has been busy buying books all weekends to a point I told him its enough. There are still some coming from Amazon so I am still expecting some more books in the mail.

Today our friend sent a whole heap of books for him to choose. Honestly, I dunno when he will have the time to read it. Do you know any of the books below? Anyone of these you have read and would recommend? Let me know and I'll pass on the message. This post is a bit of a strange one from me but this new hobby of his is really getting on my nerves.

大家好,最近我老公很喜歡買書. 我從日本會來就開始不停買,買到我叫他不再才收手. 今天有朋友想丟一些書,問我們要不要. 講真,很多我都是不太喜歡,但我的老公好想對幾本有興趣. 大家有看過一下一些書嗎?會推薦那本?哈哈今天我這篇跟我平常的有點不同,他的新興趣真是太讓我頭痛.

哈哈哈哈

Some of those are classics...
Douglas Adams writes comedy books which are quite interesting.
Phillip K. Dick writes classic science fiction, many of which have become movies.
Edgar Rice Burrows wrote A Princess Of Mars which became the movie John Carter.
Arthur C. Clarke wrote science fiction (he invented satellites).
Jules Verne wrote fantasy novels and invented submarines (his work was turned into movies).
Frank Herbert wrote The Dune series.
The rest seem to be fantasy novels that I am unfamiliar with.

Sorry his new habit is getting on your nerves. You might be able to find these in audio book format.

ooooo you have read many of these it seems. thanks for the recommendations :)

Many of them became movies, or influenced the movies we see today.

That's good
