What books are you reading?

In the same vein as movie/music threads...

"Books? You want books?! Ha! We've got books on hairy otters, on onions and on mars! All the fungus you could care for, plus, three triple zillion stars. We've got books on flossing teeth, plus three books on tossing sheep. If we spent our lives just counting books, we'd never get to sleep!" -Leopold the Librarian ("The Great Wishy Woz")

I'm currently reading Christy by Catherine Marshall. I've read it once before, but that was years ago.

Wow, that was weird. I was just thinking how I've never read Pride and Prejudice as I was clicking on this thread, and then I saw your post so it caught me off guard.

Anyway, I was thinking of reading some Jules Verne. Does anyone have any good books of his to suggest?

Woohoo! After a little hiatus from the CoN, my daughter and I finished The Silver Chair and have moved on to The Horse and His Boy!! \:D/ It still has the bookmark halfway through from when I stopped reading it 20 years ago.
