[Sosai Wakasaki]

hum... Im currently reading The Wind-up bird Chronicle

[[Fry]]

At the moment i'm reading Memoirs of a geisha and Caballo de Troya 8, both are quite long so it takes time to finish

[Shiba]

Im foolishly reading two books:

Napoleon vs. Wellington..

and..

How the Scots invented the world.

The second one is especially good.

[Ash]

These are all of the books I am currently in the middle of.

Queen of the Damned - Anne Rice started this one a year or so ago, Lestat was being gay and I decided to put it down for awhile.
Rebel Dawn - AC Crispon This one is really good, it's about a young Han Solo. I got the next Star Wars book in the series and put it down and kind of forgot I was reading it.
Planet of Twilight - Barbra Hambly The most recent of my Star Wars collection. I'm about half way through it. The author wrote another Star Wars book a couple back and it was AWFUL I have very low standards for this one. I also have another book by her that I got YEARS ago from the library for a quarter within the first 2 pages someone get's raped. I really don'tlike the author. FYI I bought it cause it had a dragon on the cover.
Dune - Frank Herbert I really love this one. It is one of the only books I not skipped through. Usually when it comes to the bad guys I skip or "boring" characters I skip till it's back to the good ones. But in Dune I never do that it's all interesting stuff. Though I am only half way through... I watched the mini series, so I do know what happens but it still keeps me on edge.
The Dawn Treader - CS Lewis I was trying to read them all in one go, but stopped here awhile back.

I've read that! It's pretty good.

[Masamune]

the swords of night day book and the vagabond manga

[Bankai - Ichigo]

I'm not reading any currently but I am a book worm; I read lots of books like Double Helix (forgot the authors name) Heir Apparent (again, forgot the author's name) JK Rowling's Harry Potter books: I read the six books that came out, and the last book of the series, book 7, is coming out on July 23rd or something. Christopher Paolini's Inheritance Trilogy (Eragon, Eldest.... book three isn't out yet, so I'm still waiting)... Tamora Pierce's Protector of the Small quartet (it's four books), Immortals quartet, Daughter of the Lioness series (two books), and the very first quartet that started the Tortall Chronicles (Daughter of the Lioness, Protector of the Small, and Immortals are what the Tortall Chronicles is): Song of the Lioness quartet; these are great books, and both of these are also great fantasy writers! Another quartet by Tamora Pierce I read Circle of Magic, and also Circle Opens; there's another book that goes with all eight of those, called The Will of the Empress.... all of the books I've read are great, especially the Tamora Pierce books. I haven't read the fourth book of the Song of the Lioness quartet, since, I accidentally started with the daughter of the Lioness series, which was the last series in all of the Tortall Chronicles until Tammy (this is what her fans like to call her) decided to start prequel trilogy that dates 200 or something before the Song of the Lioness quartet, so only book one of the trilogy is out right now, and I just finished it a while back... by the way, the Lioness is a woman who became a legend, and is called the Lioness (she's a lady knight)
Note that I'm not telling you anything about the actual story... that's because I want you to read them...

[vastolorde]

[nessa17]

Lets see
"The Adventures of Don Chipote"
by Daniel Venegas

about:
"Originally published in 1928, and written by journalist Daniel Venegas, Don Chipote is an unknown classic of American literature, dealing with the phenomenon that has made this nation great: immigration. It is the bittersweet tale of a greenhorn who abandons his plot of land (and a shack full of children) in Mexico to come to the United States and sweep the gold up from the streets. Together with his faithful companions, a tramp named Policarpo and a dog called Skinenbones, Don Chipote (whose name means "bump on the head") stumbles from one misadventure to another." "Along the way, we learn what the Southwest was like during the 1920s: how Mexican laborers were treated like beasts of burden, and how they became targets for every shyster and lowlife looking to make a quick buck."

[night_wolf_in]

Lolita-Nabokov this book is the reason we use the term lolicon and guess what? it blows chunks

Halo-Ghosts' of Onyx-Nylund best halo book yet recommend to everyone who likes the game

[Envy]

didnt read it, but other people recommended as well.

I thought it was a little slow moving in the beginning because it's basically starting the plot but once you got the trial scene, it moved really fast.

[Iria]

"The Plague" by Albert Camus. I figured it was a medical school must read. And so far its great. Its about (obviously) a town infected by a plague and how it affects each of a variety of characters.

Apparently its supposed to be some kind of sociological and political commentary as told through the views of existentialism. (Thats what my brother tells me)

But all in all, its just an interesting read about people and how they deal with things.

[DK]

[tsurugi]

Into the Wild by Jon Krakauer

Such an amazing story....you should all read it!

[kiwigrl89]

High School Debut- Pretty cute shojo anime about this girl who gets this guy to coach her on being hot. The tagline of the manga is that the girl can't fall in love with him, but this in itself is an oxymoron, cuz we all know she's gonna hook up with him anyway. It's still cute though.

Five- A Ouran Host Club rip-off. There seems to be a lot of reverse harem stuff nowadays. The art is annoying, but the story is decent.

[Maszrum]

Frank Herbert- Dune

Philip Pullma - The Amber Spyglass

Philip Pullma - The Amber Spyglass

That's amazing.

I'm reading Lord of the Rings The Return of the King - J. R. R. Tolkien and The Complete Robot - Isaac Asimov.

[Bankai - Ichigo]

I've also read the entire His Dark Materials Trilogy. Pretty cool series. A bit weird at some points but hey it's fantasy, what'd you expect? I've also read the First two books of the series that is now being called the Inheritance Cycle because Christopher Paolini said there was no way he could do all that he wanted with the story in just the third book. Therefore he will release a 4th book after the 3rd one, which is called Brizingr. I got a newsletter about it in my E-mail.

I currently have a book called FireStar. It's about this guy who is writing a story, and the events of the story actually start happening in real life. He doesn't notice until later. I just started with it though...not exactly having much of a chance to read it.

I did read the Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald for English 3 though...good book.

[Hazey101]

I'm currently reading Blood & Chocolate, tbqfh.

trying to read Musashi by Eiji Yoshikawa, which for those of you who don't know is kind of like the Japanese version of "Gone with the Wind"

[hat&clogs_shoten]

i'm in the midst of reading books by ellen hopkins. she writes her novels in poetry form and it's really cool. she's got four in all, and i'm missing one of them, but the ones i do have are really good. they're: crank, glass (sequel to crank), and burned. there's another one called impulse that i haven't gotten yet. i'm absolutely entranced by the way she writes, though.

a few others i finished recently are: the curious incident of the dog in the night-time by mark haddon, and crooked by laura & tom mcneal.

for a bit of darker reading, try one of the following two: by blood written by steven womack, or the serial killers club by jeff povey.

[Adulomiel]

Im reading I am america and so can you by Stephen Colbert ... omg i cant stop laughing reading this book.

I'm going to be starting American Gods by Neil Gaiman....when not working on my own.

[Chimp Dudley]

The Lost World.
Michael Crichton.

Not as good as the first so far.

[frack]

[Thelegendofmetal]

The altman code-friend of mine said its a good read so I'm giving it a shot

[He's a Mentalist]

Market Wizard! Good book so far and I'll be starting on Confessions of an Economic Hitman next. :)

[saiyamar]

Spot of Bother by Mark Haddon. I want to re-read the Wind on Fire trillogy soon. (You just have to read those!) I also would like to actually read two said to be good books i have on my shelf which are northern Lights and The Supernaturalist by Colin Effoler. (I know i spelt that wrong, so sue me. I have nothing. lol.)

[arwen_luna]

I just finished reading Wuthering Heights, and now I'm halfway through
Fahrenheit 451. The writing style of the latter is very ..interesting. I read it once when I was younger, but I decided a good reread was in order.

[FullMetalIdiot]

1984 by George Orwell
Victory of Eagles [5th Book in the Temeraire Series] by Naomi Novik

[arwen_luna]

Okay, I finished Fahrenheit, and now I've begun Paradise Lost. I'm also reading sections of Tolkien's Unfinished Tales.

[vitopimpin]

my moms friend let me borrow storm front the dresden files. its a little differnt from what i normal read but its pretty good

[arwen_luna]

I'm at the end of the Hobbit now (3rd time reading it). I guess when I finish it I'll go ahead and start the Fellowship.

[es/sa]

Cosmos by carl sagan

am going to start Warped Passages: Unveiling the Mysteries of the Universe's Hidden Dimensions by lisa randall tonight.

[Adulomiel]

Started American Gods by Neil Gaiman.

Interesting piece of fiction...

[Toshiro_H]

The Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer

[Hine]

There are some good books mentioned here, I have just finished reading "The Prince" by Niccolò Machiavelli...not a common book read by "grills" but if you read that then read "How to Rule the World: A Handbook for the Aspiring Dictator" by Andre de Guillaume and it totally makes sense. Now to take a page out of School Rumble and borrow Tenma Tsukamoto's idea of applying The Art of War to getting a hot anime/gamer/geek/pseudo intellectual/not an R Tard guy to be my squeeze and Molly's chew toy!

[arwen_luna]

yatta ne I finished Fellowship, and now I'm on to Two Towers. Sweetness. It's been several years since I last read these books, and I feel bad for not remembering as much as I should have. :push:

edit: I finished Return of the King. What a 1300 ish page journey LotR has been fufu Now I'll busy myself reading the many appendices.

[Yellow Ledbetter]

I just picked up The Astro Boy Essays : Osamu Tezuka, Mighty Atom, and the Manga/Anime Revolution.

A very interesting book if you are interested in the works of Osamu Tezuka otherwise known as the father of anime or god of manga. Also a great read if you simply are a fan of anime/manga in general. I highly recommend it.

[Feem]

Just read Banksy's "Wall and Piece". Loved it. :D

[arwen_luna]

I'm reading Villette by Charlotte Brontë. I'm not riveted, but it's not a bad read.

[Momo Hinamori]

I am reading Eclipse form the fabulous twilight saga!!!!!
Love is the air!

[frack]

Started reading some of the Darwin Award series. Funny stuff.

[arwen_luna]

That does sound interesting. I might have to check it out.

Villette's going kind of slowly for me :push: I should be on page 400 by now, but instead I've crawled to the 200's.

[snowsfoot]

The Brethren

[Wras]

Upon a friend's insistent request I picked up Twilight. Not exactly the greatest thing in the world (though if she learned I said that she just might eviscerate me) but I can see why people love it as much as they do.

[Toshiro-Taichou]

im reading the book "the giver" along with my class its supposedly a good book.

[Zookie]

"What's Wrong with Eating People?" by Peter Cave. XD

[Aidan]

the giver? I read that forever ago but I don't remember anything about it. Kind of want to re-read it.

Currently reading Cryptonomicon by Neal Stephenson.

[DK]

^Let me know if that's any good, it catches my eye every time I'm in the book shop but I never pick it up..

I'm reading The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins these days.

[arwen_luna]

the giver? I read that forever ago but I don't remember anything about it. Kind of want to re-read it.

I'm thinking about re-reading that myself. It was a good book, at least I thought so way back then.

[Bankai - Ichigo]

I've also read The Giver. It was a weird story.....very weird. I just finished reading Brisingr, Book Three of the Inheritance Cycle, yesterday. I liked it but a lot of Inheritance fans hated it....Oh well.

[Ryuii]

Hm... you guys have made me want to go and see what The Giver is all about. It's been a while since I've read dystopian fiction, the last one I read was Oryx and Crake by Margaret Atwood. Weird, confusing stories, but good.

I'm currently reading Lords of the Bow by Conn Iggulden (I do love fiction with historic roots) and I'm looking for a decent fantasy series/book to read.

[PinkDye]

I just finished Half of a Yellow Sun by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, and am starting on A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini.

[Aoi Neko]

Currently Reading Brisingr by Christopher Paolini.

It's pretty good so far ^^

[AdamShikurai]

It's pretty cool

[Hiwapi]

im reading now "Chain of evidence" by Ridley Pearson,its a bit old but i started to like him and i started reading all his books one by one...he is too good at how the storyline flows,always well explained and with a twisting plot that melts ur brain :amused:
if u like detective books with crimes and things like this,i recommend him :smile:

[darkerealm]

Finished reading Dante's Inferno a little while ago, rereading Hamlet atm

Just got started on this part. The Divine Comedy is a pretty good read so far. :D

Most confusing thing ever.

Currently I'm reading The Inferno by Dante Alighieri.

I love it~

[Milkshake]

I'm reading this light novel called "Maid Machinegun (http://www.randomhouse.com/delrey/catalog/display.pperl?isbn=9780345502537)"... It's a really weird book, story does get interesting but not after a few chapters.... But it's a really strange novel, eccentric, so to speak.

[Boss]

Currently I am reading "Brief Interviews With Hideous Men" by David Foster Wallace.

[Nami-san]

Farseer trilogy by Robin Hobb, recommended to me by a very wise book-lover :P

[Yexley]

That is quite a good trilogy, read it a while ago. I'm currently re-reading the Magician by Raymond Feist.
