Hooray for Dresden~
The next book comes out in paperback in a couple weeks, so I'm looking forward to that.

As for what I'm currently reading: still working on Crown of Swords.

I'm reading The Bastiat Collection by Frederic Bastiat. Some wonderful thoughts in this book.

Started "The Blofeld Trilogy"

Yes, I am looking forward to the next Bond movie.

No, I am not trying to become a Megalomaniac global dictator.

American Gods by Neil Gaiman. I've had it recommended to me half a hundred times, so I figured I might as well. Liking it so far.

I just finished Ancillary Justice by Ann Leckie, a fantastic novel. I don't know why I allow myself to continue to be surprised at how much better science fiction is in writing when compared to in movies or in video games.

 

I highly recommend this book to all bodies.

I've never read any sci-fi myself (big fan of fantasy) because I wouldn't know if the translation from English to dutch would be worthy enough enough to read. I could read a sci-fi book in English but I don't know if I would understand all of the words ( don't have such a big vocabulary, or however you call it). Knowing that, it keeps me from reading English literature.

 

Back on topic. I'm currently reading: The Third Kingdom by Terry Goodkind, just started but already exciting =)

[Puffin]

Finished American Gods, now onto Howl's Moving Castle.

[Stars]

Do not expect any similarity to the movie. xp

[Puffin]

I already knew there wasn't, it's why I was curious.

[Stars]

Just finished Crown of Swords. Planning to follow up with Path of Daggers within the next day or two.

Just finished the Claymore manga. I got the next-to-last volume, and I couldn't just stop with that, so I found the rest of the chapters online. There were some surprisingly silly moments mixed into the super serious stuff.

I actually just finished Ender's Game and I really enjoyed it. Some parts had me at ehhhhh with the whole Valentine and Peter trying to get power via articles but otherwise it was great and felt more like a thriller on pages to me.

[Stars]

An excellent choice of literature.

[Stars]

Finished Path of Daggers. Next is Winter's Heart.

[Stars]

Making good progress in Winter's Heart. I just keep getting distracted by the plethora of typos.

[Stars]

Finished Winter's Heart. Starting Crossroads of Twilight.

[Stars]

Took a break from The Wheel of Time to read the new MLP Friends Forever comics. They were delightful.

Is Stars the only one reading anything here?

I picked up a copy of "The Woman in White" because it was the favorite book of someone I try not to think about.

 

Thankfully, the opening number of "Phantom of the Opera" (and just the opening number, not that sappy love song in the middle) cures all.
 

Also, does Seuss count? I finally read "Oh the Places You'll Go" because I had never read it.

[Stars]

Finished Crossroads of Twilight, starting Knife of Dreams.

You guys might be the only one reading. For some reason books haven't been doing it for me this year, which actually makes me kind of sad. I just haven't been pulled in at all for some reason.
