My 5 Book Challenge
It took me a while to go through the million books in my brain π
itβs really weird because Iβm actually more of a dystopian and sci-fi girl that the past year or so Iβve mostly been reading fantasy or romantasy lol. #5bookchallenge #tbr #currentread #books #bookgirlies #bookgirl
For my final book, I'm going back to the very beginning:
"Kommisar Kugelblitz: Der Fall Koralle", by Ursel Scheffler.
I remember when I first checked this out at my grade school library. That's when I knew I had to keep reading whatever I like - and I still do so today. #5BookChallenge ππ
Book 4:
"The Jesus Video", by Andreas Eschbach.
A sub-genre of "realistic science fiction", which began a long streak of Eschbach books I read. A man finds a broken camcorder in a tomb, on which someone recorded footage of Jesus Christ. Is it real?
Not his best, but the first. #5BookChallenge ππ
Okay, the second one is - and I know I won't win any originality award:
"The Lord of the Rings", by J.R.R. Tolkien
After seeing three feature films, I just had to read it myself. It was the first, truly epic book I've ever read and it ignited my passion for the classics. #5BookChallenge ππ
The cover of "Masters of Doom - How Two Guys Created An Empire and Transformed Pop Culture". The title is written in yellow and white text over a highly zoomed-in screenshot of an explosion from the video game "Doom".
Okay, let me start with:
"Masters of Doom", by David Kushner.
The story of id Software. How #JohnCarmack and @johnromero.bsky.social went on to create some of the most influential video games of our time. It's also the best purely documentary book I've ever read. Good stuff! #5BookChallenge ππ
