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'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. |

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.

^ 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... |

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 |
