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 Little Town on the Prairie. Now I'm wondering if I should start the next book in that series, or start reading Fellowship of the Ring, or some other book. Hmmm.....

I've now read three Boxcar children books! The Mystery of the Stolen Boxcar, The Mystery at Snowflake Inn and The Amazing Mystery Show. They were all pretty good.

"Virginia" by Cathy Marie Hake. It's one of those books with four stories in it and they're all connected. Some of those books can be lame, but I'm reading the second story right now, and it's very good so far! Cathy Marie Hake is a good author. :D

I'm reading the newest Redwall book, The Sable Quean. Why it's spelled like that, I don't know. :x I just started, so I'll have to see if it measures up there with some of my favorites or not. \:D/

I read quite a few stuff. Yesterday I read books 2 and 3 of the Animorphs series, some of "The Book of Virtues", then I read Left Behind Book 24 (I forgot the name :-), and then I finished "Lassie: Come Home".

I just finished Heartless by... someone whose last name is Stengl. Lol Maybe Amy?

It was alright. There was obviously a lot more going on outside of what was just written in the book that never quite got explained..

That's cool, I've read the series but I might read it again sometime. I think I enjoyed the books about Anne a little more than the ones about her children.
