What are you currently reading!

I am reading ‘Underworld: Blood Enemy’. It’s basically the prequel to ’underworld’. It’s about how Lucian a Lycan (werewolf) falls in love with a vampire named Sonja and how the whole War against vampire and werewolves started.

What about you?

I'm almost at the end of <i>Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72</i> by Hunter S. Thompson. It chronicles the Presidential race of 1972, mainly focusing on the campaign of democrat George McGovern. It's a wonderful peice of journalism.

[Loony BoB]

Newspaper: Metro, daily basis (weekdays).
Magazine: FHM, monthly basis.
Book: James Barclay, yearly basis.

The most recent book I read was Demonstorm, by Barclay. I love his stuff (if you ever read them, make sure you read them in order).

[jrgen]

For spanish class I'm reading some annoying book I can't even remember the title of.
For english class I'm reading a collection of satires by Jonathan Swift.
For swedish class I'm reading "Crime and punishment" by Dostojevskij
and I'm reading the Bible for fun.

[Rusty]

I'm currently reading -

Darkness be my friend by John Marsden and Bridget Jone's Diary.

[Lankyman]

I'm close to finishing the first (It's called the Reality Dysfunction) of 3 books in the Night's Dawn Trilogy by Peter. F. Hamilton. It's a Sci-Fi/horror book, which is a new genre for me, but I'm very impressed so far, and can't wait to buy the second one.

[Anxious Heart]

for an ethics homework: 'A treatment concerning the human understanding' (David Hume)
for a history exam: 'The rise and fall of the Third Reich' (William L. Shirer)
for German classes: 'The Reader' (Bernhard Schlink)

.. well, if I had time, I'd read 'Fabian' by Erich Kästner..... but I haven't got much and this book is too good to read it in a hurry....

[cloud20747]

this post......HAHAHAHA but seriously
I'm reading my April 2005 XXL Mag

[black orb]

>>> Im reading the "Full Metal Alchemist" manga..

[Miriel]

Just finished The Devil Wears Prada.

Alas, another book that's all hype and no substance.

[Breine]

I'm currently reading "Den Kroniske Uskyld" by Klaus Rifbjerg. A quite exciting book.

[Sepho]

I just finished reading the seventh and last book in the <i>Dark Tower</i> series by Stephen King, and now I'm off to read <i>The Talisman</i> by the same author.

King has been writing the Dark Tower over the course of thirty+ years, and it's an epic I would describe as sort of a dark fantasy version of <i>Lord of the Rings</i>, only more enjoyable to read (frankly, I find Tolkien's writing style somewhat boring). A good number of his books have ties to the Dark Tower, and I hope to read a few of those now.

[Venom65437]

I'm reading Shadow Moon by George Lucas and Chris Claremont. I'm sure you recognize one name, but probably not the other, but that's ok. :)

[Xander]

Red Dwarf - Backwards, and a .Hack graphic novel.

[kikimm]

Tigana, by Guy Gavriel Kay. The first chapter was eh, but since then it's been really good. It's not exactly what I was expecting, but perhaps it's better this way. But I'm still thinking about Enchantment, by Orson Scott Card. WOW.


:D

[eestlinc]

<i>How We Are Hungry</i>, a collection of stories by Dave Eggers.

[Kirobaito]

<i>The Invisible Man</i> by Ralph Ellison.

[Spammerman]

<i>The Talisman</i> and it's sequel, <i>The Black House</i>, have a lot of ties with The Dark Tower. Both are excellent.

[Sepho]

So I'm told by the person who lent me <i>The Gunslinger</i> and in effect got me into the whole series. I borrowed both books from him and am about 150 pages in the <i>The Talisman</i>. I like the idea of the young boy main character, so I don't know what to expect from <i>Black House</i>. Whatever the case, I'm looking forward to it.

You'll fine that 95% of all anime was manga first.

[Del Murder]

A book about investing.

[Yuffie514]

i just finished reading this thread... :D

[eestlinc]

A book about investing.

Heh. I just put $3000 in my IRA this week.

[fire_of_avalon]

I finally finished both Catch-22 and The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Universe a couple of weeks ago. I think tomorrow I'll start book two in the Dark Tower series, depending on whether or not I can get to the library before work.

[Del Murder]

Heh. I just put $3000 in my IRA this week.
I read about IRAs last week!

[TheAbominatrix]

I finally finished both Catch-22 and The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Universe a couple of weeks ago.

Ah yes, excellent books. I approve.

[Big D]

Heh. I just put $3000 in my IRA this week.Holy crap. I had no idea you support Irish terrorists!

...on a more serious note, I'm reading Lord of Chaso, being book six of The Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan. The pace is somewhat plodding, but the quality of the writing remains great.

[Dr.K]

Started "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" by Hunter S. Thompson yesturday, around half way through. If I finish it today, I'll start 'Silas Marner' by George Eliot. But I probably won't.

[Khabal]

i'm reading The Lord of The Rings, not a "ligth" book...:Oo:

[Female Ryuichi]

J.V. Jones - 'A Man Betrayed'. I :love: lord Maybor :love:

[Heath]

Incompetence by Rob Grant.

It's very funny so far. Not quite as funny as Fawlty Towers or Douglas Adams that it has been compared to, but still an enjoyable book.

I rather enjoyed Lord of Chaos, though it's not as good as The Great Hunt which has been my favourite book so far. I am somewhere half way through book 8 (The Path of Daggers) at the moment, but I've postponed my WoT reading until the Summer. I love reading about the Forsaken and Aes Sedai, in particular Verin, Moiraine and Siuan

[Chibi Angel]

OMG I LOVE the wheel of time series! Though I finnished reading it right after the prequel came out so I'm patiently waiting for the next book to get done. In the meantime I've been reading The Shinning by Stephen King and Dragon Drums by a lady whose name I can't remember.

[Chaos]

'Servant of the Empire' by Raymond E. Feist and Janny Wurts.
After that, it's 'Daughter of the Empire' by the same authors.
I love the Empire Triology - this must be at least the fourth time Ive read them.

After that then I'm going to re-read 'Lost Souls' by Poppy Z. Brite.

Chaos

[bigbri2k5]

Im reading the entire set of lord of the rings including the silmarillon and the unfinished tales
