darn near, but no. The last book I read all the way through was "If on a Winters Night a Traveller..." by Italo Calvino (3-4 years ago). I get really bored with books about 3/4s of the way through, but I start a book about once a month or two.

Last book I started was A Scanner Darkly by Philip K. Dick

Peter straub recently. On book number 3 in a row. Good entertainment, but not like in proust level for all you snobs.

Read Dragon by Clive Cussler few months back in Stateville Penitentiary. Also a few vince flynn books about a spy named mitch rapp. Kinda like a bond dude. Pretty good i recommend.

The strain - aperrently it became a series or something like it.

Essentially an easy to read youth style book on "vampires". It was ok, but a little bit too straight forward for my taste, mixes a lot of historic, religious and cultural things together around vampires, adds some new things, removes others.

Currently reading the space odyssey saga.

Found this in an old box of my dads books, read it about 2 weeks ago. It's about a girl who fucks her brother in the past when she's 18 (but isn't allowed to date and didn't know what sex was, so I think 18 was a euphemism for 10). Anyways she fucks her brother all the time, but then he goes off to college and starts fucking other chicks and she realizes what they did and she gets pissy and goes celibate, becomes an attorney.

then her newphew comes to visit her years later and immediately grabs her tits and tries to french her, as family members who have never met are wont to do.

anyways, she ends up fucking her male secretary and then her nephew basically rapes her in her sleep and then they fuck a bunch, and he brings his friends over. Then his dad her brother comes home and all three of them fuck.

I'm thinking of giving it to my daughter for christmas. Make it a generational thing.

the book doesn't focus on a programming language, but on object orientated programming.
It teaches you how to write maintainable code, that other people can modify and use. It reads pretty fast and it is necessary in my opinion if you want to work in a team.
In short it talks about giving good names to things, function size, unit testing, comments, adapters, refactoring, etc..
>basically, common sense that a lot of people don't seem to have

The book will not learn you how to program c++. And i don't know any good books for that language

I've read it it, and it really is as plodding and terrible as even many of the Nazi leaders privately admitted it was. But man, I'd love to own an old copy.
