I'm always reading at least six different books at once, but currently I'm reading...
-The Face In The Frost by John Bellairs (rereading)
-The Return of the King, J.R.R. Tolkien (rereading)
-Silver On The Tree, Susan Cooper (rereading)
That's to name a few. I'm working my way back though my bookshelves. I haven't read some of these since I was 14.

I started a book yesterday called Jane and the Barque of Frailty. It's by Stephanie Barron, and it's one of a series of Jane Austen mysteries. So far it's really good (but you kinda have to be a big Jane Austen fan to want to read it...hehe)! Can't wait to read the others.

Evolving God by Barbara King.
It's okay. Nothing too fantastic. This is a text for one of my classes. It takes the view that religion evolved from emotional connections, which evolved to help humans win survival of the fittest.

She really likes her daughter and her pets. It's a little tedious to read all her warm fuzzy stuff at times, but I doubt the book is actually aimed at academics like me. It's just one of very few books that exist on the topic!

The Legend and the Apostle: The Battle for Paul in Story and Canon by Dennis Ronald MacDonald
*snooze* This book is soooo boring, but I have to read it for a book review. I don't know whether it's the topic or his writing, but this book makes me need a naptime.

Just finished Soul Kitchen by Poppy Z. Brite. The Liquorverse is freaking awesome.

I'm supposed to be reading King Leopold's Ghost for history class though. I'm pretty sure that'll be significantly less awesome.

Right now I'm bouncing between Wideacer by Phillipa Gregory and The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova. They're both really good books.

The Fall of Reach - Eric Nylund


Lulz, I took a break from that because I got my hands on the L novel. XD

So now I'm reading Death Note Another Note: The Los Angeles BB Murder Cases.

I just finished re-reading Return of the King, and now I don't know what to read. Can't afford to hit the bookstore anytime soon and I don't have the car to get to the library most of the week. sad

I've just finished The Legend and the Apostle, and I'm sad to report it was only a teensy bit better than expected.

Right now, I'm reading Maus by Art Spiegelman and Overclocked, a collection of short stories by Cory Doctorow.

Right now I am reading...
The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd
The Book of Mormon; Another Testament of Jesus Christ translated by Joseph Smith, Jr.
and Feeling Good by Dr. David D. Burns


I loved the Secret Life of Bees. Some ladies in my reading group thought it wasn't very well written and had characters flaws, but I loved the descriptive details.

Still taking a break on the Halo novel because I just have waaay too many video games to play before I can make time to read, but I have to read The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger for English. Even though I've already read it in 8th grade -.-'' But whatever, I like the book. I just don't like having to be quizzed on my knowledge and comprehension of the book.

I finally started reading Sense and Sensibility.
I'm having trouble getting used to the flow of the sentences, but so far I like it.

i'm reading....

The Dark- Marriane Curley (2nd book in the Guardians of Time trilogy)
or, rereading, actually. I highly recommend!

Circles of Seven- Bryan Davis (3rd book in the Dragons in Our Midst series). Also very good, and it's good clean Christian literature as well.

oh, and Crime and Punishment for my English class (Fyodor Dostoevsky). It's actually a very well-written book, to tell the truth. biggrin
