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")

Just finished The Sacrifice and am now starting The Prodigal by Beverly Lewis from the Abram's Daughters series. Very good.

You know what's really annoying about "Out of the Silent Planet?" He (Ransom) refers to the hrossa and pfifltriggi correctly in the plural, but insists on calling them sorns instead of séroni. And he's a philologist, too!
I read those books. Out of the Silent Planet is my favorite, but they're all good.

I read a random crime novel on Monday (can't remember the name), and tomorrow will start Self Incrimination (can't remember the author). Probably get about 3/4 through it, and finish on Friday.

I am reading, actually, just started, "Killing Game", If I am right. The book is in my room, and the light is out. It's a CSI:Las Vegas book. These books are funny. I just finished "Cult Following" and I am also reading "Little City By The Lake", a Caroline Quinner book. Laura Ingalls' mother. Plus "Chicken Soup For The Teenage Soul 2", and more books which I ain't mentioning. Love, HC.

Black Hawk Down. Pretty cool, kinda high on the profanity meter though.

Eragon. That and Gibbon's Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire for light reading.
Tomorrow works for me, though.

Almost done with "Out of the Silent Planet" from the space trilogy by C. S. Lewis for the third time. Excellent books. I think they should be made into a movie/movies.
