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. ~~~ Писатель всегда будет в оппозиции к политике, пока сама политика будет в оппозиции к культуре.

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'm reading something called Shogun Pt. 1...seems interesting enough, only read the first 4 chapters though.
~~~ I once saw Phoenix Wright cosplay at JACON...

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. ~~~ How would you like your "keen" eye to watch my "sure" foot kick your "smart" ass? - Xaldin, KH2 parody

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* ~~~ I have another name...Aquamentis...
I have worked with a friend named Yui to create a patch for a game called Touhoumon. |

Reading Cryptonomicon by Neal Stephenson for the second time, its still a really good read.

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 ~~~ "Though always keen and eager the sheepdog never really mastered the herding of carnivorous sheep."

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" This post has been edited by Rzul: Aug 15 2006, 09:00 PM ~~~ I once saw Phoenix Wright cosplay at JACON...
