Looks interesting. I hope I get to read it sometime.
I'm getting a book called The Icarus Girl by Helen Oyeyemi for my birthday. I read half of it at a library at the other end of the country where I don't have ownership, and was dying to finish it. The author wrote it when she was as old as me, which totally blows me away.

the last book i read was Kalona's Fall; it's a House of Night novella.

currently i'm reading The City by Dean Koontz.

i read a LOT.

I just finished The Pirates Wish by Cassandra Rose Clarke, the second half to The Assassins Curse...

I'm on the lookout for something new to interest me at the moment as I find it hard to come across interesting stories that keep my attention these days...

Most recently I finished reading "By Blood We Live", the third in a trilogy by Glen Duncan. I like that it was a werewolf-centric story that doesn't get sappy like this other series I got a look at which I think was written by Anne Rice earlier this year.

i'm still reading The City... but i'm almost done!

(and then it's on to another Chicagoland Vampires book! =) )

A book I read recently is The City and The City by China Mieville. It's interesting.

i just finished reading The City. i love Dean Koontz. i have for a long time.

I finished On The Beach a month or so ago. They made a movie off the book in the late 50's or early 60's which was depressing, but good. I liked the book very much. Also very depressing.

I'm now reading the new Mark Steyn book. It is way funnier than I expected.

The last book I finished was Howl's Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones. Sadly, that was quite some time ago. I started to read the Adventure of Sherlock Holmes, but my English teacher assigned a book of which was so miserably boring to me that I ended up not even reading half of it. Then I tried to read the Song of the Sparrow by Lisa Ann Sandell, and naturally the teacher assigned another book. High school sucks.

I'm still reading the book in my signature....

I've been re-reading all the Watch novels in the Discworld series again. I just finished The Fifth Elephant and started on Night Watch. I love Terry Pratchett, I love ALL the Discworld novels, but especially the Watch books. I really identify with Sam Vimes.

In terms of "new" (that is to say, previously unread) books, I think the last one I finished was either Olivia's Luck (Catherine Alliott) or The Two Week Wait (Sarah Rayner). I can't remember what order I read them in, but I read them one after the other. I really enjoyed both of them.

The Unfinished Song Book 1 Initiate

bought a set of books concerning faeries, etc and this was one of the books in it. I am thinking of getting the complete set cause I want to see what happens to the lead character.

I just finished Saga Volume 4. I am not sure if comics count in this thread, but I like the story. Its a bit cliche with enough thrown in to make it unique.

i would think comic books count. =D

I finished Fifty Shades Darker yesterday morning and got Fifty Shades Freed this morning, the last of the trilogy by E L James. Though the sex scenes are a bit cliche and she uses the same adjectives to describe many of them, I'm interested in further knowing about Grey's past and where their relationship will ultimately take them.

Well, The Hubs convinced me to read Divergent so we could watch the movie. It was pretty good, so I read the rest of the series. Insurgent was disappointing, it felt rushed, and unnecessarily angst-y, but I guess it was a decent story. Allegiant, however, was just unnecessary IMO.
