As the title says. Just come here and tell us what book is currently in your hands. If you want you can say a little bit about the book or why you like or hate it.

Currently I am reading Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. I'm absolutley loving it! A long time ago I started the series and got through the fourth book when my sister who I was borrowing the books from wouldn't let me have the fifth. But recently I've decided to get through the whole series. I started around Thanksgiving and have been flying through the books, some faster than others. Anyways I'm sure that most people here know what these books are about so I wont bother saying it, haha.

I just bought the book Here's What We'll Say: Growing up, coming out, & the US Air Force Academy authored by Reichen Lehmkuhl. So far it has been very interesting.

Not quite reading as it was an audio book, but I've recently consumed "The Children of Hurin". Apart from that...nothing. I'll have to borrow (yes, I'm ones of these persons that read through their friends' bookshelves rather than restocking their own one when all books in there got boring) some more books for when I'm bored I guess, but I probably won't be too bored until something like the time around Easter, so reading will have to wait.

One of my resolutions for the year is to read more.

Is that actually possible? I don't know. I spend far too much time reading text books as it. But, this is more fun.

So, I put together a list of my favourites as well as others I've been meaning to read. Picking one at random and reading it. Repeat.

Right now, I'm reading Jurassic Park

Things Bogans Like - Michael Jayfox & Intravenus de Milo

Providing you know what a bogan is (white trash or rednecks to you americans), this book is absolutely hilarious.

The Dark Tower series by Stephen King. I'm on book 3 right now, "The Wasteland". If you haven't read the series I can't strongly recommend it enough.

I'm reading Pet Sematary by Stephen King, then after that, Misery.
More Stephen King love! I love how gritty and dark his writing is.

Well I'm reading a comicbook, but 'tis a book nonetheless!

I'm reading X-Factor: The Longest Night.

I loved it and might get the next part, Life & Death Matters.

The Bedwetter - Sarah Silverman

I think the whole book can be summed up in one statement; "Summer Camp: The Second Worst Camp For Jews".

I'm rereading The Silent Governess. It is such an awesome book, I can't stand to put it down, even though this is my fourth time reading it.

I'm in the progress of reading Deeper by Roderick Gordon and Brian Williams, as well as Carlota by Scott O'Dell (which is for a book report). Deeper is a pretty huge book, but Carlota is pretty small, so I think I've got a good balance here.

It tosses its enemies around with agility. It uses all its limbs to fight in its own unique style.

At the moment I am reading Green Mile by Stephen King, Curse of the Mistwraith by Janny Wurts, and Shadow's Edge by Brent Weeks. Shadow's Edge is the book I am farthest in and would recommend most highly - it's a gritty fantasy centering around a 'wetboy', a kind of assassin. Pretty great stuff.
"pps new screenie" - No, really shut up yuoaman.

Haaave you read my LP?
Pokémon Quartz - The only one of mine really worth reading.

What about my [Un]Abridged series?

Well at the moment I'm ready the good ol' Frankenstein, though I am re-reading House of Leaves which is amazing. It's a horror that will make you crap your pants, but at the same time is a romantic novel that will make the biggest hater of romances (me) enjoy the novel.

Lots of Stephen King here, huh? I've read Pet Semetary, Cell, The Long Walk and I tried reading Cujo but it bored me to tears. I haven't really understood what people find so amazing about him but I guess it's possible I've just been reading the wrong books. <:

Currently rereading The Lives of Christopher Chant by Diana Wynne Jones, The Subtle Knife by Phillip Pullman and the Lord of the Rings series. Again.
