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'm reading a book called The Minister's Daughter.
It is an all right book. I like it, but there are a few things in it that I don't quite agree with.

I'm listening to Brisingr because it's taking too long to get the book from the library. ](*,)

New Moon by Stephenie Meyer. Boring book... I hate it.

One Last Wish: Three Novels book by Lurlene McDaniel... I just started it today.

Black by Ted Dekker. Slowly but surely I will make my way to Red. Soon, I hope!

Black is awesome!

I finally got to borrow Brisingr from my friend so I am reading that. It is a fantasy novel by Christopher Paolini.

I finished Brisingr the same night I got it! That book is awesome!

Has anybody read House of Winslow books? I was thinking of borrowing another one to read from my sister.

Jules Verne's The Mysterious Island, mostly because it's impossible for me to read 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea without its semi-hemi-demi sequel.
"Sonuna" Taranimak ("Sonuna" Sharkquill) has been content lately. She admired own very fine Bed recently. She talked with a parent recently. She talked with a friend recently. She had a good meal recently. She admired a fine tastefully-arranged Desk recently.
She is a citizen of The United States of America. She is a member of The State of Minnesota. She is a member of The Town of Odyssey.
"Sonuna" Taranimak likes Bauxite, Copper, Green jade, the color navy, cloaks, ballistas, cats for their aloofness and hydras for their seven heads. When possible, she prefers to consume Dr Pepper and ramen.
She lives at a relaxed pace. She tends to avoid crowds. She has a fertile imagination. She is completely disorganized. She is very distant and reserved. She tends not to openly express emotions. She needs caffeine to get through the working day.

I love her books too! :highfive: I'm sure that you'll enjoy the book whenever you have a chance to read it! :D

I'm reading "Island of the Innocent," the seventh book in Gilbert Morris and Lynn Morris's Cheney Duvall, M.D. series. It's one of my favourites in the series. I started reading it last night when I knew that I should be trying to sleep instead, and the same temptation will face me soon. :( The writing isn't fabulous sometimes, but my sister and I read through them every now and then because we really just love the characters! \:D/
