Was bored and read 6 of the SERIES OF UNFORTUNATE EVENTS in about two days. Don't ask me why. Seriously.

The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins.
While I read it at school, I seriously had ten people tell me it was really good. It did end up being really good - now I just need the sequel. =P -------------------- |

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, for the third time. You can never have enough HP!
Also, I recently finished Mossflower by Brian Jacques! I'm growing fonder of that series by the book, I think. -------------------- -

Okay, just finished numerous Stephen King books including: Pet Semetary, Night Shift, Skeleton Crew and It. I'm now working on 'Salem's Lot.
Oh, I forget I also finished reading Doomwyte by Brian Jaques for the second time. I can't wait until February when The Sable Quean comes out, I really need to read the newest Redwall book. It's becoming an obsession now. This post has been edited by Outsane: Dec 27 2009, 09:12 PM -------------------- |

I just finished reading Child 44 by Tom Rob Smith, which was pretty good despite the plot being rather predictable. However, it wasn't nearly as good as Gorky Park, despite what everyone says.
At the moment I'm reading Pnin by Vladimir Nabokov, and Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy, which should last me a little while. They're both rather wordy. -------------------- |

Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy, which should last me a little while. This is one of my most favorite books in the world. Have you read it before? For me it started off super slow, I had to put it down and pick it back up, but after I picked it up (and forced myself to get through the first fourth of the book or so) it was ah-mazing. So if you haven't read it before, don't be put off by how tedious it seems at first. I got done a couple of days ago with a book called The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss. It's a newish series called the Kingkiller Chronicles. It's the first book in that series. It was a very good read, and I don't rate books very lightly. I am now reading The Malloreon, Volume 1: Guardians of the West, King of the Murgos, Demon Lord of Karanda by David Eddings. I've read The Belgariad and it was an entertaining read, so I'm excited to start this one. -------------------- |

The last book I read was Book of the Dead by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child.
It was the sequel to Dance of Death, so the storyline wouldn't make much sense if I explained it. In the book, Special Agent Pendergast is being pursued by his brother, Diogenes who is a brilliant, insane criminal. It's a good book. I recommend reading as many Pendergast novels you can. |

A couple, actually, though nothing new.
"Hunted" by P.C. Cast and Kristin Cast. It's the 5th in the House of Night series. The story isn't actually that great, but I've become attached to the series for some reason. "The Green Man: Tales from the Mythic Forest." It's a collection of short stories and poems about treemen, fae, shapeshifters, etc, with a very informative introduction. Rather inspiring for my own writing. -------------------- No longer active on this site or on GPX+.

Just finished reading the entire Redwall series over the Christmas break and I'm now working on Castaways of the Flying Dutchman also by Brian Jacques. It's really good, I didn't think I'd like it at first, but I do.

Right now I'm reading Stephen King's The Dead Zone. I just finiiiished Stephen King's Needful Things. I'm not usually a Stephen King fan, but I've run out of my own books for now and I've had to raid my sister's collection.

Memoirs of a Geisha. I read it ONLY because I was forced to as it was the coverage of the whole test.
Reaction about the book: Err.. meh? At least I finished it? D= -------------------- |
