I've read Dune. It sure makes you look at water in a different light, lol.

And I've also started reading Picture of Dorian Gray in English. It is one curious book, that is certain.

I started Homer's epic The Odyssey several days ago; the amount of times it pops up is unbelievable – hopefully, now I'll find out why it does so.
Balance is imperative; without it, total collapse and destruction is imminent.

^ I just read Iliad and Odyssey a while ago.

Now Reading Noble House by James Clavell (the author of Shogun). It's quite complex, lot's of characters and plot lines.
I like how Clavell writes about conflicts between Western and Asian cultures.
