I finished Chateau of Echoes by Siri L. Mitchell, wonderful story. I am starting All the Tea in China by Jane Orcutt next.

I'm possibly the only person that hasn't finished the book yet. I'm barely on chapter 7. HEY! I'm savoring the book.
Hah, I feel like I'm the only person who has finished the book. It's so hard not to talk about it!

I'm reading Anne's House of Dreams. And about 5 other books.
LOL! I know! My friend is pushing me to finish so we can have a HP discussion over dinner. We're going to a British pub near my house. We'll discuss the Snape debate over steak and kidney pie and yorkshire pudding.
Kidney pie as in Kidney Beans....or actual kidneys of animals!?

Yep, kidneys from chicken and slices of steak in a sauce with onions and mushrooms. :9

I prefer the yorkshire pudding and beef wellington.

Just read Acres of Unrest by Max Brand and Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman. I'm reading Don Quijote by Miguel Cervantes and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by JK Rowling--that is, when my sister's not reading it. She wants to finish it first, so I'm letting her (though it has to go back to the library in a couple days).

I finished All the Tea in China, wonderful story.

I am starting The Reliance by M.L. Tyndall next. It is the second book in her Legacy of the King's Pirates series.

Clodius Albinus · Post by **Clodius Albinus** » Sat Aug 04, 2007 11:14 am

My current reading consists of books that I'm ashamed that I did not read years ago. (Given how little time I have to read these days, it will be many years before I escape from the "reading something I should already know well" category -- if I ever do.)

Robert Nozick's Anarchy, State and Utopia
John Maynard Keynes' The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money (especially embarrassing as a first read)
Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species
Kevin Phillips' American Theocracy

For fun I am reading the reel kids adventures series. It's about tennagers who start a club that goes around the world making video's and tries to minister to the people in the area.

Voyage of the Dawn Treader - Reading to my soon-to-be 4 year old daughter (at her insistence) all of the Chronicles of Narnia series. Which is cool, because I might actually get all the way through this time! I think I only got into the 5th reading it myself as a kid.

At the moment I'm in the middle of Forbid Them Not by Michael Farris.

My list has picked up speed over the summer and I was (thankfully) able to finish most of the following. Nietzsche aside, this will hopefully be the end of French philosophy for a while - the translations are horrible.

Friedrich Nietzsche's "Beyond Good and Evil"
Jacques Maritain's "Man and the State"
Emmanuel Mounier's "The Personalist Manifesto"

Finally, for fun, I've cracked open a biography entitled "Ivan the Terrible" by Isabel de Madariaga.
