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")

Well, I read this children's book called The Giving Tree and it's so good. One of the most wonderful and yet saddest story ever!

Oh, I love that book! My mom just cleaned out my little brother's book shelf, and found it on there, so she gave it back to me. I think I shall read it tonight! I just love that author.

If that doesn't happen, I'm going to attempt to read the rest of Sense and Sensibility. I think I may opt for The Giving Tree. ;)

I just finished Skin by Ted Dekker \:D/

Oh, I love that series! I'm still waiting to get the last book.

I love it but it makes me want to go into a very dark room and cry.

I finished Family by Karen Kingsbury this morning. I decided to hold off reading Forever until her new book is closer to release. I am reading The Homeplace by Gilbert Morris, it is the first book in his Singing River Series. :D
