I'm reading Elminster in Myth Drannor by Ed Greenwood. As much as I like the Forgotten Realms world, I had never taken time before now to learn about one of its most important characters. It's good so far. :)

The LA Times. Nothing all that interesting though.

Brave New World (for school)

It's. So. Disturbing.

Quiet Man Cometh 05-08-2011 07:09 PM

Wasn't that big on Brave New World. Part of me was inclined to roll my eyes at it, but then, after reading We by Yvgeny Zamyatin, BNW didn't seem as poingiant as it could have been.

Batty 05-11-2011 12:08 PM

I just finished Jaye Wells' Green Eyed Demon.
And I'm starting on Jeaniene Frosts' 5th book in her Night Huntress series, This side of the Grave.

I'm currently reading Memnoch the Devil, book V in The Vampire Chronicles by Anne Rice. I'm going to start re-reading Howl's Moving Castle by Diana Wynn Jones soon, though. Gods, I love that book!

Echo-chan713 05-19-2011 08:32 PM

I need to read, but first need to find my library card.

Those are both in my top three favorite books, along with A Clockwork Orange. I actually just ordered A Clockwork Orange from Amazon and will be receiving it any day now. I'm excited to re-read it.
Dystopian novels are my absolute favorite.

Batty 05-19-2011 10:29 PM

I'm reading: This Side of the Grave;; Jeaniene Frost

Airina 05-19-2011 10:43 PM

I'm reading a book called Dining with Joy. It's about a food show host who doesn't actually know hot to cook. It's pretty interesting.

zombiefluff 05-19-2011 11:57 PM

just finished reading a theology study titled:
new age religion and western culture

I quite enjoyed it but it was a little too intense of a book for just joy reading.

Airina 05-20-2011 12:02 AM

Sounds really interesting zombie. I love having books to read

Glitch 05-20-2011 12:48 AM

Dexter in the Dark :3

Airina 05-20-2011 01:00 AM

What's that about Winter?

Hermes 05-20-2011 03:21 PM

I'm in the middle of reading "Bone Gods", by Caitlinn Kittredge.

Batty 05-20-2011 03:27 PM

A food about cooking, but not knowing HOW? xDD; That sounds absolutely hilarious.

Suzerain of Sheol 05-20-2011 04:23 PM

I just got past the Red Wedding in Martin's A Storm of Swords. That man is a bastard to his characters. :mad:

Yea its funny. And she ends up getting a cohost and he knows how to cook but he is horrible in front of the camera, so they are trying to help each other.

Oh my god. xDD; Thats so brilliant.

Airina 05-21-2011 01:07 AM

Its really funny. My mom got it for me for my birthday. I still need to finish it but i've been slightly preoccupied.....

Glitch 05-21-2011 01:49 AM

Dexter in the dark is the third book in the Dexter series - that the tv show is based on ;)

Hero 05-21-2011 12:26 PM

I haven't read anything except for my biology textbook this year D:
I'm hoping to reread The Sight by David Clement-Davies

Sushi 05-29-2011 10:37 AM

I'm currently reading, "Reading Lollita in Teran". It's interesting. I think it's about a true story of a secret book club in the middle east that would gather and read books forbidden by law (cause of the religion and culture)so they could discuss literature.

Airina 05-30-2011 09:35 PM

I just started rereading the guardian by dee henderson. Such a good book!

M e w 05-30-2011 09:43 PM

So I'm sort of reading two things at once right now.
First I finally got myself a copy of the new Mortal Instruments book, City of Fallen Angels by Cassandra Clare.
Then, for late-night reading I'm reading Dracula by Bram Stoker. Normally I probably wouldn't have bothered with it but it popped up for free on my Nook and then just recently I watched some of Interview With a Vampire and it got me into the vampire mood a bit heh.

Airina 05-30-2011 09:51 PM

How is dracula?

M e w 05-30-2011 10:04 PM

I'm only on the third chapter but so far it's actually pretty good. c:
I've still got that ridiculous picture of Dracula in my head but the description of him is actually quite different I think.

Airina 05-30-2011 10:12 PM

That's cool, ive been trying to find new books to read. I'm constantly reading the same ones....

M e w 05-30-2011 10:17 PM

Ah, well what sort of genres do you like? Maybe I can recommend something to your liking.

Airina 05-30-2011 10:20 PM

I'm pretty good with what ever.... i really like historical fiction.

johnny 05-31-2011 02:08 PM

I just started reading Sherlock Holmes books because I had nothing to read and I have a free "Classic Books" app on my iPod.

It's a bit hard reading books on an iPod. xD

Have you ever read Ken Follett's The Pillars of the Earth, by any chance? I'm reading that at the moment.

Airina 05-31-2011 04:38 PM

No i haven't what's it about?

Suzerain of Sheol 05-31-2011 05:12 PM

It's about the struggle of small village in 11th century England to build a cathedral, despite the machinations of a corrupt bishop and the depredations of a psychotic, power-hungry earl.

I don't really like it, though. The actual writing is terrible in my opinion, and the book is way too long, something like 1200 pages when the story would easily fit into 700 or so.

Airina 05-31-2011 06:09 PM

Oh.... that really sucks.....

Lunaryon 05-31-2011 07:18 PM

I'm starting the newest of the Nicholas Flamel books, the the Warlock.

Airina 05-31-2011 10:49 PM

Oooh what's that about?
