Hello Argonath Community!

I've searched trough the "Speakerbox" and found nothing really referring to Books.

Make sure to post here what books are you currently reading, and a bit of the stories as well. Feel free to discuss too!

I'll start:

I'm reading a book that was wrote in 1947, "If This Is a Man" by Primo Levi, an Italian writer that was a prisoner in Auschwitz. The book reefers to his time while he was in the concentration camp, and what he was put trough and all the others that were with him.
I'm haven't finished reading it, but the beginning is shocking.

My book is about a girl/nearly woman named Kate Raab, her life seems just about perfect ; She has a boyfriend, a family that holds together but everything changes when the FBI takes her father into custody.She's is now secured by the WITSEC [Witness Protection Program]while her entire life changes. Her father disappears, a friend who has been close to him gets murdered in a gross way. With her family under observation and the FBI unreliable, she sets off to finally find her father but discovers secrets that are not to be heard of. The plot goes over a year, so I summarized it enormously.

Still gonna continue here.

Currently reading Pharmacist Melchoir and still Quran.

And we do not try to be real life, as why would you ever play real life if you have one ? We play the GTA universe, and our players should try to live in the GTA world, not the real one.

Solving mysteries in medieval Tallinn

Apothecary Melchior stories are detective stories taking place in the medieval town of Tallinn. Melchior Wakenstede is a fictional character created by an Estonian writer Indrek Hargla. Melchior lives in the 15th century Tallinn. He has his own pharmacy shop and a good knowledge of all kinds of medicines. Therefore he is a respected citizen of the town. However, he is not a regular apothecary - one of his skills is solving all sorts of mysteries and crimes. These kinds of crimes, murders in the peaceful town of Tallinn are disturbing the calm everyday life from time to time. Melchior needs to step in as he feels the urge not only to solve the crimes and catch the murderer but also to keep his hometown safe for his family and all the good fellow citizens. With his friend, the town's Court Vogt Wentzel Dorn, they form a pair with Dorn having the authority to bring the criminals to justice and Melchior the logical reasoning skills to do so.

Solving mysteries, Melchior himself suffers from a mystical disease that may attack him in the most unpleasant situations. It is a mental disease and to avoid the unpleasant consequences of the attack, he even deliberately knocks himself out. Despite knowing a lot about all kinds of diseases, even Melchior does not know how to fight his own - it is the curse of his family, the curse of Wakenstede. He is afraid that the curse is going to carry on to his son.

And we do not try to be real life, as why would you ever play real life if you have one ? We play the GTA universe, and our players should try to live in the GTA world, not the real one.

If I would ever read a book it would be a fantasy book, nothing else.

Last time I read a full book was the Lord of the Rings books'.
