What are you currently reading?

First topic message reminder :

For me, it's 1984 for my summer book report. I'm really enjoying it, in fact, I'll probably finish it soon.

sooo, that's why you were singing the theme song. hmm.

Haha yeah!
and I had just seen a trailer for the new movie.
I really hope this one will be good.

Well, I finished The Shining yesterday. Now I'm beginning The Green Mile.

I heard it's one of Stephen King's scariest books.

I've read it, and I wouldn't have called it scary.

I would say it's more of a book that really surprises you, and often disgusts you. Overall, it's incredibly good, and you should enjoy reading it immensely.

The Green Mile isn't scary but it's really emotional..I'm not ashamed to admit it's the only book that I've ever shed a tear too at the end.

Yeah, its too bad darnell dislikes that book so much.

She hates Stephen King for some reason.

Yeah, whenever you tried to read one of his books she would flip out.

I haven't read anything lately.
I finished the Twilight series
last year though.

Did you enjoy the series?

Yes! It was really good.
I actually thought
it was going to be some
corny love story, but it was
totally awesome!

That's cool, I've never actually read the series.

Yeah you kind of have to be
patient 'cause the action doesn't start
till like the miidle of the book.
But in my opinion that just makes it even
more exciting.

Twilight was really interesting but I hated subscribing to the streotype of the girl that thouroughly enjoyed the books. As much as it hurts me on the inside, it really did raise question to me about the existence of love. Particularily Eclipse. Which was your favorite?

I began to read the first one, got about half way through, and could not bring myself to continue. It was utter nonsense and the writing was sub-par.

Sorry, Twilight fans.

I need to decide on a book to read soon for my book report.

a book on d-day

Medieval Times. A non fiction book about, you guessed it, the Medieval times.

I am going to have to reccomend The Power of One, by Bryce Courtenay. I think I have mentioned it to you before and it would serve as awesome book report material.

has anyone read The Curious Incident of the Dog at Nightime?

I'm so thrilled, I'm buying Children of Hurin Today!

I completely agree with you. Except I read the entire series... I'm not necessarily proud of that fact, lol (:



Chuck Palahniuk's "Survivor" is amazing (: It's one of my favorite books (:


EDIT: I am currently re-reading A Wrinkle in Time (:

Read them all. Liked them all. Did not get obsessed, not one bit. Did not read until the craze died down, because whiny pre-teens totally ruined it.

Favorite picture ever, taken from my friend's facebook today:



I laughed my ass off. In a library. I was embarrassed. But only a little. Excellent picture

And Chuck's the man! I'll buy survivor when I go out to the bookstore next.

I'm going to start 1984 soon

I loved A Wrinkle in Time. I also liked A Swiftly Tilting Planet.

Artemis Fowl.....is a genius....

I'm not right now but the last thing was 1,000 Albums You Must Listen to Before You Die

Hitman: Enemy Within was the last thing I read.

I swear, these books based off video games are worse than the movies based off games.
