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 reading Let's Roll by Lisa Beamer. It's about 9/11 hero Todd Beamer. Kind of sad. :(

Oh I've heard of that, my dad read it a while ago.

I'm reading To Kill a Mockingbird for school, I'm on chapter 4. It's okay I guess, I'm not really into it yet though.

^I loved that book when I read it in school (and a few times afterwards) and I hope you like it as you continue reading :)

I'm not actively reading anything for fun, just chapters in books for school. I did start Desiring God awhile ago, but I haven't really picked up it since.

Till the end of the line.

I finished A Most Unsuitable Match by Stephanie Grace Whitson, it was excellent. Next up for me is The Surrender by Gilbert Morris. It is the third and final book in his The Last Cavaliers trilogy. I have been waiting for this book since I read the first two!!

That author sounds really familiar, but I can't place it... Did she write anything else?

I'm still reading To Kill a Mockingbird, and also Their Eyes Lay South.

Sounds fun!
I'm also reading The Complete Fairy Tales and Stories by Hans Christian Anderson. My favorite fairy tale of all time, The Wild Swans, is in this great book. I can't tell you how many times I've gotten this collection of fairy tales out.

To Kill A Mockingbird for English. It would be a lot more fun if we didn't have to obsessively analyze everything, but whatever.
