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")

"Bugs Potter Live at Nickaninny" by Gordon Korman. I first read this book in grade 6, and I have to read it again every now and then because it is hilarious! \:D/

I just finished Following Prince Caspian by Thomas Williams. I didn't have very high expectations, but they were met. It'd be a pretty good evangelism resource.

I'm reading "Travel Team" by Mike Lupica for like the 5th time. If you love sports books, that one is really good (hence the 5th time I've read it).

I've read so many other books since School has started I couldn't begin to read anymore. I will read sometimes 4-5 books in a weekend. (thats not normal for a teenager)

I just started The Amish Nanny...I'll have to see how it goes. I'm trying to remember everything and everybody from the first book, The Amish Midwife. It's been awhile since I read that one...

The Divide, Conspiracy 365, and Homelanders. I don't read just girl books. Also, there are others that escape my mind.

Mockingjay. The third in the Hunger Games trilogy \:D/ I'm excited. And I didn't think the second one was bad; a lot of people I've met think the second book isn't very good, but I thought it was.

I finished A Wish for Christmas, it was wonderful. I just love the Cape Light series. Next up for me is A Lasting Impression by Tamera Alexander. I'm itching to read a historical since I've read so many contemporaries.
