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")

Reading "On the Run" book #2 by (Rick Riordan?) Oh, and the "39 Clues" series, and Sherlock Holmes (every once in a while), and "Kidnapped" series (by same author as "On the Run"; and extension of that series) And I'm going to read "The Limit" about a boy who gets taken away because his parents exceeded the debt limit imposed by the government (I believe I've correctly given the plot.) I've been reading a lot lately. :D

Does that have anything to do with the book the Hunger game?
I've been reading the Redwall series by Brian Jacques and The fellowship of the ring.

No, it's just a book, not part of a series :)

I love words. I love to sing them and speak them and even now, I must admit, I have fallen into the joy of writing them.

I've only read the 1st three. I've been in school 4 weeks and have read about 15 books (for fun). Right now I'm flying through books!

I finished A Heart Revealed by Julie Lessman last night. It was absolutely fantastic!!! The only regret I have about finishing it is that I have to wait until next year to read the final book in the trilogy. I have now started The Doctor's Lady by Jody Hedlund.

I am rereading all the Narnia books, and rediscovering why I fell in love in the first place.

I read like fifty pages of I Am Number Four by Pittacus Lore and then gave up on it. I do not see what all the hype is about.
