I'm reading The Wheel of Time series and I can't seem to put it down. You should try it if you like Fantasy.

Also try any of Stephen Lawhead's books. He is a Christian writer, he writes Historical Fiction (ie about the crusades), and a series about King Arthur mixed with Atlantis. A really awesome author.

He's also really good with sci-fi. Dream Thief and the Empyrion series are really good.

I'm currently reading Airframe by Micheal Chrichton and A Fine and Pleasant Misery by Patrick F. McManus.

I am slowly reading "Nine Stories" by JD Salinger (Much different than Catcher In the Rye, hardly any language). I am also reading "the Moon Is Down" by John Steinbeck, it's very good.

Aww really? I enjoy reading the Canterbury Tales. I had to do my humongo research paper on Chaucer. But, I have not read all of them...that might get tiring. Are you reading them in the old english? (For your sake, I certainly hope you aren't...aaaaahhh!!! )

Well I finished reading Esther, and I Corinthians. Next I'm gona tackle II Corinthians.

And I'm still reading Mere Christianity...and I'm enjoying it immensely!!!

Recently finished The Indwelling... Dang they are leaving me out to dry way too many times... About to start Calvary Chapel Distinctives by Chuck Smith, which I think is a good book to read even if you don't go to Calvary Chapel.

Just finished The HitchHikers Guide to the Galaxy. I'm gonna goto the library today to get The Restaurant at the End of the Universe, which is the sequel. It's a sci-fi book, but it's hilarious. The author is British, and if you like Monty Python, it fits right in, the sense of humor that is.

I'm reading "The Other Boleyn Girl", which is about Mary Boleyn, Anne Boleyn's sister. It's cool. It's by Philippa Gregory.

Ooh. Sounds good.


I haven't even checked out this thread lately. I haven't been reading. Textbook & Bible, of course, but beyond that...





Mind, today I picked up Armageddon by Leon Uris. Took a chunk out of it...
