Whatcha Reeeading?

[Inconspicuous Trenchcoat]

Nightmares and Dreamscapes, a compilation of short stories by Stephen King.

The first story was the best so the rest of them have left me with a modicum of dissapointment, unfortunately. About 3/4 of the way through it. I highly recommend it.

Books?

Bah, who needs them...

=O

You, sir, should be lobotomised, since you're obviously not using your brain. There are children in Africa who would be glad of a proper brain!

As for me, Wolf Hall, by Hillary Mantel

 

[chroniccronners]

Am presently reading a HP Lovecraft short story collection (copious amounts of casual racism but cool) and i just finished the road (A bit harrowing but surprisingly easy to read).

 

[Halceon]

History of Latvian literature.

 

[Captain Spectacular]

Speaker for the Dead by Orson Scott Card and
In the Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss

Both took me a little bit to get into but now they've me sucked in.

 

[HatchetDown]

Right now it's Atlas Shrugged and Mein Kampf. Just switching between the two. Man. Hitler is long winded. After that I'll be reading Pride and Prejudice and Zombies.

 

[Hookman]

I'm reading a bunch of books at the same time-
Rereading 'The Enemy' by Charlie Higson
Rereading 'Cell' by Stephen King
Rereading 'Hells Heroes' by Darren Shan
Rereading 'Artemis Fowl and the Time Paradox' by Eoin Colfer
...Damn,I need some new books!

EDIT: Oh I forgot-
Reading 'Farenheit 451'
Reading 'Trainspotting'

 

[Xerosch]

At the moment I'm reading "Sandman - The Kindly Ones". Not exactly a book but literature nontheless.

After that I'll continue reading "The Stand". Let´s see if it can beat "The Dark Tower"...

 

[Queen Michael]

I trying to read Frankenstein.It's not going to well.

You know, usually I'd flame you for not appreciating a classic but to be honest I didn't enjoy that one that much either.

 

[Elexia]

At the risk of sounding nerdy, I am currently reading the continuation books of 'Bulldog Drummond' written by Gerard Fairlie following after the original author, H.C. McNeile (Sapper).

The books predate the eventual darker 'Hardboiled' detective genre of the post-WW2 US (which I also enjoy) with British humour, larrikinism and mateship and all those other good things to come out of WWI. There's action, crime, mystery, suspense and everything that makes a good book to me.

At the moment I'm half way through 'Bulldog Drummond on Dartmoor', which was published in 1938

 

[AgDr_ODST]

headlong into the Sword of Truth series by Terry Goodkind and intermixed with that Im reading The Purpose Driven life aswell as some books by Joel Olsteen

 

[Supreme Unleaded]

right now im currently reading Dormia, im only on page 4 though (got it like 2 days ago and havent felt like reading much) so don't tell me ANYTGING if your also reading it.

If you do I'll reserect MaxTheReaper and he will reap you gladly.

 

[senorcromas]

Pygmy, by Chuck Palaniuk. It's something you'd have to read to understand...

Also, I just recently finished Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, so that I can see the movie without feeling guilty.

EDIT: I'm also reading A Midsummer Night's Dream for school. Curse you, Shakespeare!

 

[SnipErlite]

Discworld

Damn good series, the Discworld books.

Indeed this is true - I think Mort must be my favourite.......wait, maybe.

OT again: Also reading the QI Book of General Ignorance

=]

 

[carlisn]

I'm slowly trudging trough the Eragon books, and listening to the LoTR audiobooks whilst searching for the Halo Novels...while playing Dragon Age.

V for Vendetta. Again. It's better a second time.

Now stop asking.

 

[Taco of flames]

Rereading Heinlein's "Stranger in a Strange Land" for about the 10th time. Recently finished another round of Jim Butcher's Dresden files and the Codex Alera. I hope to get more of those after Christmas. I also want to get a new copy of the Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy(All the books in one) to replace the one that fell apart from overuse.

 

[Nwabudike Morgan]

Tonight I'm going to do my annual reading of The Santaland Diaries.
