Starting my Dan Brown voyage with the Da Vinci Code - found it going cheap in Asda and thought I should go for it before seeing the film :)

I'm reading Crime and Punishment for English. It's a very good book.

I just finished reading Jennifer Government by Max Barry, and it was excellent. Now I want to read his other two books, Syrup and Company.

I've decided to read The Wizard's Dilemma by Diane Duane again. i absolutely loved the series, and it was beautifully written. also with very appropriate cover art. infact, i think i'll reread the whole series at some point during the summer. or, read them for the first time, considering i heard a good portion of them on cassette. it's really good on cassette

America is always a good read....The Daily Show version with John Stewart.

I've finally found a copy of The Color of Magic by Terry Pratchett. I'm so excited. I'm been reading all weekend.

"Atlantis" by ummm... I think its David Gibbins?!? I could be wrong. He's a marine archaeologist though or something, apparently.

Read America (Jon Stewart) and The DaVinci Code-- both great in very different ways. :)

Right now reading: Living the I Ching, by Ming-Dao Deng and the play Six Characters in Search of an Author by Luigi Pirandello

Haunted - Chuck Palahniuk

Currently I'm reading A Tale of Two Cities for literature class. It would be nice but the teacher kills the experience with a full 2 pages of questions and a quiz every other day plus a character booklet. Otherwise, it's a very in depth book quite good for the mystery solvers.

Eldest, by Christopher Paolini. The book is taking me forever... it would be ok if the writer didn't think he was Tolkien.

I just finished Alas, Babylon by Pat Frank. It was a pretty interesting book. I have no idea what I'm going to read now though.

Exactly. And people need to stop comparing him to Tolkien >.>

I just finished The Secret Life of Bees, by Sue Monk Kidd. We're reading it for English, and it's okay. Not that great, but it's better than a lot of other books we read in school.

Now reading Wild Swans by Jung Chang. Very good so far, and I'm only on the first chapter^^

Inside the Mind of Gideon Rayburn - Sarah Miller

Bought it for a friend and reading it before I give it to her (Yes, I'm cheap, although, I may buy myself a copy of this if it's good). So far, it's pretty good -- pretty interesting take on a woman's perspective on guys.

Shameless Self-premotion.

Oh, I mean JPod by Douglas Coupland.

He's never actually dissapointed me before, but this one came close.
