This thread is for discussion of books. Books you're reading, books you've read, books you're interested in, etc.

But anyways. I'm currently reading Demons by Fyodor Dostoevsky. It's interesting, but I'm having difficulty getting into it, partially because of school, and partially because the month before I started it, I had just finished the Dark Tower series.

I didn't think it was -that- bad. Or maybe I just have a high tolerance for boring things. *thinks back to Harry Potter* Never mind.

Now reading All Quiet on the Western Front for school. There's this one part where a horse's guts fall out and it trips and falls on them. Lovely. Just... lovely.

Sounds hawt.
Anyways, I don't think I posted, but I went with Blood Meridian.
Even sexier than the scene Liger just described.

Sounds great. Reading The Edge on the Sword and Fatalis. I haven't started The Edge on the Sword yet, but Fatalis is very boring.

I just finished this random "science fiction" book called Doorways in the Sand, by Roger Zelazny. It was really random and hard to gather the entirety of the story.

Lately I've been poking around my dads science fiction bookshelf looking for new things to read. Still deciding what book to read next.

I just finished Inkheart, by Cornelia Funke. I liked it.

Reading the sequel, Inkspell now.

The last book I read...Do Grimms Fairy tales count?

In my high school english class we had to read children stories.
Do I need to say more? Yes, Yes I do.

Well I chose the most horrific story and scared my entire class...well the girls mostly.

I didn't even get to win the award of reading the story to the 1st graders...*cries*

Once and Future King drags on and on too much, it has a good plot but White complicates it too much...

And it's still just another retell of King Arthur, nothing too special there.

My favorite book would probably be Lord of the Rings

Favorite Series: Ender's Shadow Series.

And I really like crazy Chinese books by JinYong XD

Marion Zimmer Bradley. She doesn't completely irritate me, which is a big plus.

I'm reading the most bonechilling vampire novel ever- "Salem's Lot". This is one of Steven King's best novels from what I can infer.

I'm also reading a fantasy novel called "The Fifth Ring"
