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")

I just finished all the trade paperbacks that are available of The Walking Dead graphic novels... \:D/ It's really cool but also pretty... violent and graphic and stuff. ;) So I am the only one here who is allowed to read it. :noway:

The Case for Christ by Lee Strobel. I highly recomend it.

He came to speak at convocation on Monday. I was able to get my picture taken with him, and I'll probably be posting it by tomorrow (in the "Post A Picture Of Yourself" thread).

I am reading the Prequel to Anne of Green Gables: Before Green Gables by Budge Wilson. It is very good.

What's So Great About America? by Dinesh d'Souza.

Although, political books are a bit dry to me.

I finished the Anne of Green Gables prequel, it was very good. I'm glad I gave it a chance. I am now starting A Touch of Grace by Lauraine Snelling, it is the third book in her Daughters of Blessing series. :D

Wow. Those are both rather depressing... Are you studying dystopian societies or something? (I've been kind of thinking along those lines lately because I'm studying utopian societies for political science.)


Just finished reading The Flying Inn by GK Chesterton. One of my favorite authors! (in the trio which includes Chesterton, Lewis, and Tolkien).

Mere Christianity, by that great author, C.S. Lewis.

And I will finish this book one of these days. I started it months ago, but I never got around to finishing it. I'm picking up where I left off, which has me... slightly confused.

Just finished reading The Black Arrow by Robert Louis Stevenson. Sort of rereading Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury.
