Any good books?

[MeatieB 8]

So two days ago I found out that you can read the books that are laying around in houses by putting them in your hands.

What are some good books that you guys have found to read when waiting for someone or having a little rest? 

[Zarniwoop 1193]

I read Ulesses in the forrest on my own... Twas fun listening to the birds and the quiet, reading, while the sun goes up. 

[Gth 18]

Crime and Punishment is the only one I found that I enjoyed (in real life anyway. Don't have the patience in-game to read that particular book)

 

I did find Frankenstein once though, which I wanted to read but it was ruined so I couldn't do anything with it unfortunately.

Frankenstein for the win!

[ZlobaRUS54 441]

I read Ulesses in the forrest on my own... Twas fun listening to the birds and the quiet, reading, while the sun goes up. 

 

Can't wait till we get tents and campfires back in the game. Imagine spending a quiet evening reading some public domain classics :)

[inexorable 26]

what is the name of the book with the russian characters and their pronunciation ?

[ParaB 114]

Dracula, Red Badge of Courage, War and Peace.

[Hvizeu 17]

War and Peace by Tolstoi.

[Hvizeu 17]

what is the name of the book with the russian characters and their pronunciation ?

 "How to learn russian"

[SalamanderAnder (DayZ) 1747]

I started Heritage of the Sioux, but I lost it and haven't found another copy yet.

 

Another interesting thing about books is that you can put one on your quick bar and read it while unconscious. Good way to take up the time, considering you die if you log out.

Books I've found while wandering around aimlessly from place to place. Haven't managed to live long enough to read any of them yet. There's a couple of russian texts that I haven't identified yet. They all seem to be copyright free books (a la Project Gutenberg). Makes sense.
