I'm rereading A Storm of Swords (Game of Thrones, book 3). I've been in a rereading mood a lot recently, and when I reread, it seems to always be long fantasy books. I've also got a goal to have reread the whole series before the next book in the series comes out ... if he ever gets that finished. I'm starting to wonder if that will happen. :\

I also keep restarting Mark Oshiro's Mark Reads Twilight, but I never get very far! I <3 Mark.

    I love reading... <3 I love reading historical romance novels, horror novels, romance novels. I love reading Stephen King's "It". I have read the Southern Vampire Series (Sookie Stackhouse) books. I still have to get the last one that came out 2 years ago to complete the series. I have other SK books such as Pet Cemetery, Carrie. Right now, I'm reading a e-book on my Nook called Dearly Departed in Deadwood. I've read all of the Twilight books before they came out with the movies so I knew somewhat of what to expect from them.

    Ugh. I'm currently reading Morgan Rice's Sorcerer's Ring. it's awful but at least the books are short...I bought them all at once though so I feel a need to complete it. I'm on book 8 of 16 and struggling to get through because the books are so badly written. However I also have OCD in that once I start a storyline I can't stop. So I'm going to put myself through the misery of reading the next 8 books as well. Thanks for reminding me lol.


    They compared her to Tolkein and GRRM, and the like. Blatant false advertisement. :(
    It's kind of sad that I have to point out that anything I say is only just my opinion and may be a different one from someone else.

    I just saw Gone Girl and I'm sort of interested to see how the book is.

    I'm into reading romance novels. Right now I'm reading a book called My First-Jason and Katie.

    It's more of a romcom then when I'm done with this book I will be reading a book called Forbidden Disclosure.

    I am reading Dead Ever After, I have heard it's not very good ending to the series but I have read all the others and must finish. Next will be the Outlander series.

    That is the one that I still need to get. I am sad that True Blood is no more now, but at least I have the books even though the show really didn't follow the books.

    You know when I would watch Trueblood I always forgot it was based on the books, to me it just seemed like two different things I like. I am very sad it is over.

    I'm currently trying to read through a stack of New Scientist -magazines I didn't have time to read, when they came... But the most recent book I read was Margaret Atwood's newest short story collection Stone Mattress. I really love all her books, but the best ones I think are The Handmaid's Tale and The Year of the Flood, which is the middle book in the Mad Addam -trilogy, which is brilliant :)

    I really can't decide, what to read next, though. For me to be able to read a book, I really have to get into it. And if that doesn't happen soon enough, I just give up reading it...

    I love everything post apocalyptic and dystopian, and from that genre The Road by Cormac McCarthy, and a book called Random Acts of Senseless Violence by Jack Womack are couple of the best ones I've read.

    And even though I'm a grown-up, and the Uglies -series by Scott Westerfeld is young adult literature, I really enjoyed them, when I read them last summer :)

    I really like Stephen King's books. Under The Dome is , to me, the best he did (I think in 2009?) since the Dark Tower finished up. The show is crazy compared to the book. This is not really the place to discuss the show but if you like King and don't like the show, you may still like the book - some of it's the same in the beginning but it's in a totally different and weird place now than the book ever was.

    I usually read classics. Really just want to catch up on all these well-known books. :P

    Right now I'm reading Don Quixote. I've read around 1050 pages, so I'm close to the end. I also bought the newest Diary of a Wimpy Kid when I saw earlier that it was already out.

    Some of my favorites are The Count of Monte Cristo and The Phantom of the Opera.

    I'm currently working through all the classics I should've read before, with a few pleasure-reads on the side. For the classics I'm on Huckleberry Finn, then I'm going to read The Secret Garden, Mary Poppins, Oliver Twist, A Tale of Two Cities, Great Expectations, etc. and for the pleasure-reads I'm on The Sun Also Rises, The Help, and To Kill a Mockingbird for the third time. :)

    I'm a Centaur. That explains how I can turn pages and I hate carrots. :(

    That's my daughter in my avi. She's full horse. SHE can't turn pages.

    A friend has started me on The Wheel of Time series and so conquering that series is pretty much my holiday project. I mean, the prologue took me a while in itself. But I'm a slow reader :flushed:

    I'm currently finishing off the last few chapters of "A Dance With Dragons", by G.R.R Martin.

    And, I'm also reading DC's New 52 Justice League: Dark Vol 2. And, although I am not very enthused in it, I've also started to read Dragon Age: The Stolen Throne. I want to get up to date on all the books before Inquisition, but, I haven't really gotten into it yet.
