Going to start Coram Boy, and also going to buy some more books.
Currently reading "Plague, Pox and Pestilence" which has made me paranoid about disease, so I absolutely hate it although it is interesting, The House of the Scorpion, The No.1 Ladies Detective Agency (quite good! Funny too) and a book for literature circles called "The One-Eyed Cat". It's exceedingly slow, and has NO element of Fantasy, and it's also pretty darn boring. It also involves a cat with one eye, which makes me sad, because I LIKE cats.

I finished reading Nothing Feels Good - Punk rock, Teenagers, and Emo. It was annoyingly long.
Right now i'm in the middle of Digital Fortress - Dan Brown... Great book is all I can say.

The Ring - Suzuki Suzo
The Snow Garden - Christopher Rice
Teach Yourself Calculus - Hugh Neil
I'm a good multi-reader
I read The Ring before I go to bed each night, Teach Yourself Calculus is the book I use to look as though I'm doing work in revision sessions and The Snow Garden is just a book I read in my spare time. It all varies a bit, though.

I just finished Lord of the Flies (though it was more a desperate skimming and cramming stuff in before my exam than reading) and A Child Called 'It'. I'm reading...hmm. Don't think I'm reading anything, actually. Hopefully my Amazon order will come soon...

I just finished both Howl's Moving Castle (by Diana Wynne Jones) and The Goddess of Yesterday (by Caroline B. Cooney). Both are excellent, though HMC isn't as good as I'd expected it to be, after reading most of DWJ's other books. GoY was one of the best books I've read in a while- I really do enjoy it when an author puts a character into a time period that isn't medieval.
(And c'mon. It's good Trojan war fanfic. Though I do think Anaxandra acted a bit too old for her age in most parts. I'm not saying a girl my age wouldn't be able to do things like that, but when she was younger, she seemed far more mature than one would think she'd be at that stage of life.)
And now I've started The Outlaws of Sherwood, by Robin McKinley. Not very interesting, so far.

Things Fall Apart. By who? I'm not sure. We have to read it for school and it's not too thrilling. I can manage reading it, but I'd rather not. -.-

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy By Douglas Adams(second time reading it)
Circle of Magic: Daja's book by Tamora Peirce
And The Bartimeaus Trilogy: The Amulet of Samarkand (forget who wrote it)
All of them are excellent. HhGG and Bartimeaus are hilarious, and Circle of Magic is just awesome.

Yay, my Amazon books came. Shadow of the Giant by Orson Scott Card. It's very good.
