I am reading The Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan again. I am working my way through the books so I can refresh my mind with all the plot lines before I read book 11.

The Allies by jack cavanaugh

Its a part of a 7 book series and its actually not that bad. Its about a family called the morgans and each book is about a different generation of the family. We printed 3 of the books at work so I'm reading them at work since I have time when the operaters are setting the binder up in between jobs.

[X-Evolutionist]

I just finished Making a Literary Life: Advice for Writers and Other Dreamers by Carolyn See.
And I just began to read The Writer's Journey by Christopher Vogler.

They're both about writing better stories. And I'm definitely all about writing better stories. :happy:

[Vishus]

The Watchmen by Alan Moore

It's like one of the best books I have read in my lifetime. Good job of characters. They have such dark pasts and yet a lot of people hate them like terrorists or like them like divine heroes. Rorschach is my favorite character.

[Fiend]

I'm now reading Diary by Chuck Palahniuk as well as The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger(for school).

i meant to read some books from the chronicles of narnia series this winter break... to bad my breaks over :(You totally should! I have the collection and they're awesome! Better than the movies but that's expected! Now go read...

[Stay Vertical]

I litterly just finsihed The Outsiders by S.E Hinton.
It was a easy read but one of the best books I think I've ever encountered. Its hard to explain how much I could relate to the book even though nothing like what happened in the book had ever happened to me. I read it before when I was like 10 (I used to read a shit load but hardly ever now) but I didn't really 'get it' the way I get it now.
It's a movie as well, I think, but I've never seen it.

I seriously recomend this book.

[X-Evolutionist]

Frankly, my favorite book is the Bible. It's a collection of books, really, with Genesis being my favorite of all.

[Sendok]

I'm reading "Biggest Brother: the life of Major Dick Winters, the man who lead the band of brothers" by Larry Alexander

[GeekyGmrChic]

I'm rereading Anna Karenin by Tolstoy. It's a great novel though somewhat long. But Tolstoy is such a wonderful writer.

[ScratchedAt]

Rats Saw God.

That is a book..that you need to read.

[The Dude]

The Road to Surfdom by F.A. Hayek
I think I might be the only one that reads philosophy/political books

[Bombardier]

I just finished Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. I really enjoyed it. Normally dystopian stuff is pretty lame, but this was actually good. I'd recommend it.

Hopefully I will find a good collection of Lovecraftian stories at the local book shoppe when I head into town tomorrow, I've been looking to read The Call of Cthulhu and The Dunwich Horror in full for a while now.
