Obligatory "What are you reading now?" topic

[buttplug]

I've been reading Guns, Germs, and Steel. But recently my CC movies, the forums, and Finals in school have been distracting me

[IvysaurClock]

I've been reading a novel one of my mates has written. He's been working on it for a few years, and it's pretty damn good so far.

I'm been speeding through Terry Pratchett paperback for the last few weeks, I think I'm on the Fifth Elephant.

[Goron]

Just finished re-reading The Boy In The Striped Pyjamas as I have to read it for school.


I won't give away anything as I recommend it to everyone, but the ending made me cry. Seriously this is a must read book. On another note, re-reading Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix as the movie is coming out soon.. ish.

Red Storm Rising By Tom Clancy I am reading as well, I started getting into it but read all these library books and totally forgot the plot. Nineteen Eighty-Four By George Orwell is another one I'm reading, finding it to be an excellent read, I can't describe it but everyone should read it and Animal Farm as well, they are great books.

Temple By Matthew Reilly, you Americans might not of heard of him but he writes excellent page turners, I have to read them at least twice as I am always rushing to get to the end, I just want my heart to stop racing.

That's all, boy, that was a long post.

Now i'm reading The Thunderbolt Kid by Bill Bryson. I have quite a lot of his books, despite not really liking him or his writing style very much. You can tell the parts of his tales that are true from the parts that he exaggerated. The reason I keep reading his books is because he is invariably funny and insightful. They are easygoing books.

I don't read much anymore. I used to be a huge book fiend, although I'd like to start reading some more.

He's still editing it... I don't know if he's going to try and get it published by a proper place, or just through a vanity press like lulu.com.

[cokezeroglock]

I'm reading this for the billionth time 'cause it's so awesome.

[Kombucha]

Now I'm reading Faerie Tale by Raymond E. Feist.

[Mask]

The Crying Of Lot 49 by Thomas Pynchon with Against The Day working as a footrest and flower press until I finish off the last 25 pages.

[GreyClock]

Life of Pi, though I haven't read in a while because I like reading outside in the sun and it's the most horrible weather!

[CrustClock]

'The Penguin Complete Sherlock Holmes'

what is it? I like the cover.

[LeekClock]

I've just begun reading this and so far it's quite encouraging and paints an exciting picture of the world of producing.

I would recommend this to any clocks who are considering a career in filmmaking, because producing is a role I had never really considered or understood before, but now it sounds quite fun and rewarding.

I'm juggling between this and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

[LeekClock]

Finish Harry Potter before you see spoilerzz online or something

I can ignore them, and besides, Nineteen Eighty-Four has to go back to the library soon, and I own Deathly Hallows.

But I found out that Bellatrix LeStrange is killed by Molly Weasley. Man, I can't wait until that happens! I hate Bellatrix.

[Poltergeist]

I managed to finish Deathly Hallows without reading a single spoiler! (Except about Dobby, but I didn't give a shite)

My books called Rant by he way. It's pretty cool so far.
