I figured I should make a new one of these threads. The other one was over twenty pages; I should've closed it when I had the chance. Anywho, the purpose of this thread is to discuss books you're currently reading, have recently read, or are intending to read.

Still.. Artemis Fowl. I'm almost done, though!

i don't really know if this counts but i'm reading Tuesdays With Morrie by Mitch Albom and Avalon High by Meg Cabot, again. i'm in LOVE with those two books! they are so great.

I'm reading The Dante Club by Matthew Pearl. It's kinda boring in the beginning, but it really picks up after a while.

The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova
It really isn't as boring as what the title implies.

I finished reading The Dante Club and now I'm reading The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fforde.

The Devil Wears Prada and the new Fruits Basket Volume

Shizuko's Daughter by Kyoko Mori. I found it randomly in the library, and it's really good. It's like one of those books you just can't put down.

In the middle of The Da Vinci Code.
Beginning on What Mr. Mattero Did - Pcriscillia Cummings.
& also this book on Jacques-Yves Cousteau.

OH!!!!! Anne Hathaway is in the movie version!!!!! Okay.

I am reading The Odyssey. Again. For the 5th time. I seem to reread books a lot. Wow.

Just started reading Hoot for school.

"Yes, is is a hoot."
-The Washington Post Book World

I've just finished Size 12 is Not Fat by Meg Cabot and I'm currently reading Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury and Life of Pi by Yann Martel.

^ Ray Bradbury is a literature god. Mmm just finished the Artemis Fowl book; currently reading The Sound and the Fury again. Oh how I love my Faulkner.

I need to stop starting books, because Ive started so many, and still need to finish all of them. hahahaha

Anyways, here is my list:
- Dawn treader (Chronicles of Narnia)
- Praise Habit
- Captivating

Ooh, Farenhieght 451 is excellent.. i must reread it sometime soon...

hmm.. I'm about to start Zen And The Art Of Motorcycle Maintenance (I promise, Mr Greening = )) for school... looking forward to it actually... I'm comapring it with The Catcher In The Rye for coursework this year... YAY for choosing my own project!

Just finished Meg Cabot's The Princess Diaries Volume VI, Princess in Training

I have to read Ross King's Brunelleschi's Dome and Machiavelli's The Prince for AP History, and i lost The Devil Wears Prada in the middle of the book. planning to make trips to borders to finish the book in store.

and i haven't started but have been planning to read Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister by Gregory Maguire.

we'll see how it goes.

^ Confessions Of An Ugly Step Sister is good, but not as good as Wicked, by the same author...

Must read Son Of A Witch soon, too...

Building Design Portofolios: Innovative Concepts for Presenting Your Work by Sara Eisenman

Still Alas, Babylon. Only 3 more chapters, but it's bored me to tears. I want it to end!

^ Aww but it should be good! The ending is awesome!

Imagining Atlantis.


I bought the book like a month ago, and am still only 5 pages into it. I never have time. Dammit.

I'm going to re-read Abarat By: Clive Barker.
Awesome arthur, and probably read the second one again as well

Days of Magic, Nights of war


And I decided to go get the Uglies and read it, in which I made a topic about this book if you want to read what its about. The cashier at the coffee part of the book store said it was a good book and she liked it a lot..

http://www.createblog.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=148442

I took a break from The Sound and the Fury to read Dark Days and reminisce over my 30 Days of Night comics.

I'm not reading anything, but I'm still skimming over Anna Karenina for my book report. (Which is due tomorrow! )

Beyond Good and Evil by Friedrich Nietzsche.

Dense as f**k. Love this man's style and multiple voices.

I'm being forced to read Seven Years in Tibet by Heinrich Harrer..
I don't think I can finish it by tomorrow

I haven't read a whole lot lately..which is surprising, because usually I'm ALWAYS reading something.

My friend has been writing a book though, and it's pretty good, so she's been reading me that.

Does that count?

Aurian, by Maggie Furey. I think this is my fifth time reading it!

The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath. I just finished watching the movie Sylvia with Gwenyth Paltrow. It's amaazing.

I've posted in this so many times (), but I CANNOT put Ender's Game down. Well, unless I'm on cB.

^ OOH! OOH!

READ THE SUB-SERIES ABOUT BEAN!!!

*ENDER RELATED BOOKGASM*

^I want to reread that!! (to Kathleen)
All the books connected to it are great, really. And I have read them all. And to think,, James, I had to buy it for you as your leaving present just to get you to read it.

And The Bell Jar is really good too.

I'm rereading 1984 currently.

Body of a Girl by Leah Stewart.

it`s really good. it`s about this reporter who works for a newspaper, and she is at a crime scene in which a young woman is raped, etc. And she alone tries to solve the case, but i`m only there so i can`t really explain more.

art geeks & prom queens - alyson noel

My friend is giving me all the sequels/parallel books to the novel soon. Okay. So I finished Ender's Game.. Snow Crash is currently in transit at the library.. so now I'm reading Uglies by Scott Westerfield (thanks, Holly!).

Well I've been on a Chuck Palahniuk trip. I've read Lullaby and Choke an I'm currently working on Diary. I also have Figt Club and I'm trying to get my hands on Invisible Monsters. I also started Valley of The Dolls by Jackie Susanne but I had to take it back :(

GREAT EXPECTATIONS.
So fcking boring. Makes me want to murder my English teacher.
It took me an hour to read to page 13 (I was watching AVP though ).

the westing game by ellen raskin. been a favorite of mine since 6th grade.

Stargirl - Jerry Spinelli

I'll be rereading The Chronicles of Narnia in the next two weeks, before I leave for college. Then it's Beckett's Waiting for Godot (again) and Goethe's Faust.

hrrm. Catch 22. I despise war literature. dumbass course.

I just finished 1 and 2 of seven this morning (The Magician's Nephew and The Lion, The Witch, & The Wardrobe); I've been meaning to get my hands on Catch-22 for some time now.

And all war lit? Even Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse-Five?

Well, i say i HATE war lit. what i mean is that i resent being forced to study it, and i resent that the school madea f**k up with scheduling and made my english lit class HUGE AS HELL.

The Au Pairs: Sun-Kissed by Melissa de la Cruz. I looooove her books. So addicting.

Egyptian and Tibetan Books Of The Dead... I'm comparing ideologies... they're pretty similar as of now.

finished reading "a child called it" && now i`m reading Mr. Maybe.

Right now I'm reading Genius: The Life and Science of Richard Feynman.

The Crucible (school) by Arthur Miller? (I think....)
The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath

^ Ick @ Miller's Crucible.
The Bell Jar was okay; nothing special, to me.

I'm off to read more about Narnia (again).
