What books have you read lately?

I just finished reading Terry Brook's The Gypsy Morph, the final book in the Genesis of Shannara trilogy. I'm extremely disappointed with the series as a whole. A lot of the characters are quite under-developed or samey, and it does the villains very little justice.
 
I'm in the middle of reading Neuromancer by Gibson right now
Also just read foundation by asimov
 
Currently reading Twilight. Only up to page like 70 because of school, but still, I highly recommend it.
 
Well, Ive just finished the Cirque Du Freak series. Dont read much. My old motto: "REading Kills" LOlz
 
For some, strange reason I find myself reading Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince again. Maybe its because I saw the books movie trailer in the cinema on Friday. :/
 
Because of school, I'm reading Lord of the Flies. I love that book.

I haven't done much real reading before that, besides Alan Moore's The Watchmen, which was great because it's about superheroes and all, but in order to be a superhero, you have to be a human first. It really focuses more on the human aspects of masked adventurers, and how they act socially, politically, etc.

I reccomend it.
As well as V for Vendetta. You can only understand how retarded the movie is by reading the graphic novel.

Before that, Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut.
It's pretty funny and is a very enjoyable book.
 
I've read two books in the past month.

Forgotten Realms - The shield of weeping ghosts

Forgotten Realms - Sentinelspire

Very great books. I suggest reading them!
 
I don't seem to read many novels anymore. It's always manga. >.>
I tried to read Fahrenheit 451 but, I couldn't get into it and stopped until my school says to read it. XD But the last book (novel) I did read was last year, and rather forced, To Kill a Mockingbird. I had to read it for school...and never again will I read it.

Last manga I read was Disgaea 2 Vol. 2.
 
Haven't exactly read this lately, but it was the last book I read. "Serpentslayer" by a good friend of mine. No famous writer. No celebrity. Just some random guy who wrote a book one day. It's my favourite book of all time.
 
Alan Moore's The Watchmen, which was great because it's about superheroes and all, but in order to be a superhero, you have to be a human first. It really focuses more on the human aspects of masked adventurers, and how they act socially, politically, etc.

Yeah both are not for a really young crowd but great pieces of work. I'm so excited for the Watchmen movie. The graphic novel will stick with me forever so I hope the movie does it justice (it won't...). Slaughterhouse Five really makes you think.
 
I have been reading Erin Hunter's Warriors Second Series. I just finished the last book like two days ago.
 
I've just finished reading Ingo by Helen Dunmore a few hours ago.
