What books are you reading?

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Should get it by 2029.
Any online PDFs around? Fun read that went sadly out of print.

I assume Kindle has this one. Car Crash by Lech Blaine. Terrific book by an inspirational young Queensland writer. Five kids in the front, two in the boot. Three dead. Schoolboys, no drink, no drugs, not speeding. Just a horrific accident.

There was a bookseller who used to operate on Sisowath Quay between 154 and 144. I think she is back now. If you are going to pick up a copy she might be worth a try. Also Monument Books on Norodom, I think they have a second hand section.

While the United States stumbles, an award-winning foreign correspondent chronicles China’s dramatic moves to become the world’s dominant power.
In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST
