I'm reading ten books at the moment. Mostly non fiction so its easier to keep track of. I figure if I start them, I'll be more likely to finish them, instead of wasting time on other stuff.

I've been reading Les Misérables for the past few months.

Cat's Cradle by Kurt Vonnegut. I'm liking it.

This thread.

Naw, but seriously...

Tokyo by Mo Hayder & Exit A by Anthony Swofford.

Fantastic reads.

sydchick · 11 Nov 2009, 10:23 PM

I've just finished Orwell so now I am reading something nice and light to stop this creeping depression...

I'm reading On The Jellicoe Road by Melina Marchetta.

YA gold, imo.

read Seven Ancient Wonders by Matthew Reilly. it is the first of a trilogy.

in fact read any of his books they are action packed and wonderful to read.

chowm · 13 Nov 2009, 10:30 AM

The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown, augh it's so cool

klaris · 14 Nov 2009, 9:59 AM

Short stories by Katherine Mansfield.

So good, imo.

I can't really take Woolf, too much stream-of-consciousness, but Mansfield is a nice substitute.

This allures me. Should I read it? Or shouldn't I?

I am currently reading The Other Boleyn Girl. I find the number of pages:words stacked onto the page rather intimidating. It's taking me zonks to get through it.

lol, i'm only reading it for uni but it's pretty damn funny. Read it if you like the classics and are familiar with greek/roman mythology, you'll get a good laugh.
