Books I read
Well actuall I planned to post a list of all books I read in 2007 last January. But as you might have noticed this has never happened. So now finally here is a list of all books I read between January 2007 and today, in the order I read them including my rating of the books. As you can see I don’t read that many books. Well actually I hadn’t read a single one since April when in October I saw how many books E. reads and thought that it might be a good idea to start reading books again. Since then I’ve been reading one book after the other.
| Lynn Connolly “The Mun – Growing Up In Ballymun”
7/10 A autobiographic story about growing up in the Ballymun district on Dublin. Interesting facts. |
 |
| Alexander Osang “Schöne Neue Welt – 50 Kolumnen Aus Berlin Und New York“
8/10 This is a collection of newspaper articles by Alexander Osang mostly about his experiences in the U.S. Entertaining to read in between. |
 |
| DBC Pierre “Jesus Von Texas”
7/10 Critically acclaimed book, I also think it’s good. |
 |
| Neville Thompson “Mama’s Boys”
5/10 What I didn’t like was the fact that you get to know the whole life stories of the main characters although that’s absolutely not necessary to understand the main story. Apart from that this book is OK. |
 |
| Wolfgang Büscher “Drei Stunden Null – Deutsche Abenteuer“
7/10 Interesting short stories out of Germany’s history. |
 |
| Carlo Lucarelli “Die Schwarze Insel”
2/10 I had already read the book “Der Rote Sonntag” by the same author before, which I liked. But this book here is just nonsense. Don’t read it. |
 |
| Sven Regener “Herr Lehmann”
10/10 This is really a classic. I had already seen the movie a few years ago but only read the book last November. I also want to read the the second part “Neue Var Süd“. You should read this as well if you haven’t yet. |
 |
| Malin Schwerdtfeger “Leichte Mädchen“
7/10 For this book containing several stories about girls Malin Schwerdtfeger has received an award in Klagenfurth in 2000. I had already read her other book Café Saratoga before. This one is good to read in between. |
 |
| Radek Knapp “Franio”
6/10 A book containing short stories all set in a Polish village. This book is OK. This is the first book Radek Knapp whose debut novel Hernn Kukas Empfehlungen I really liked when I read it a few years ago. |
 |
| Ardal O’Hanlon “Talk Of The Town”
7/10 The story about a young guy from an Irish contry town who just has a job as a shop security gard in Dublin, loses his girlfriend and so on. Not the best book I ever read, but OK. |
 |
| Michael Moore “Verraten Und Verkauft – Briefe Von Der Front”
5/10 Well I think I don’t have to write anything about Michael Moore here. In this book he just wrote the introduction himself. The rest is filled with letters & emails from soldiers from the Iraq war zone, their relatives and others. They give a good insight into the madness of this war and American life. All these letters have a right to be printed in this book as a document but still it gets boring after a while. |
 |
| Tilman Rammstedt “Wir Bleiben In der Nähe”
9/10 This is the last book I just recently read. I like this book and can recommend it to you. I had also read “Erledigungen Vor Der Feier” by Tilman Rammstedt before. |

P.S.: There will another post about books soon.
