Finished All the Bourne books during school breaks now.

Gotta say I liked all the ones that take place after the movies (3 of them).

Thanks to joe's little suggestion (Vent, if you're not on, fuck you), Gonna take up the Dark Tower series by Stephen King.

Anything you guys enjoy? Those that aren't gaylords ofc and enjoy reading.

If you don't mind describing why you like them would be nice. Any kind of novels is fine.

Donno exactly what I'm going for with books, but dont really enjoy reading about true events too much unless its fantasy type stuff (medieval shit)

Used to enjoy Dragonlance shit back in the day, but seems that stuffs a bit too crazy for me now
