Rereading the Gathering Storm by Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson. Cuz it's that awesome. Can't wait for the other two books to come out and finish the series.

Just got Time's Eye by Arthur C. Clarke, I'll probably start reading it tomorrow or the weekend.

Not as good as I had hoped, but maybe it's just me. I've kind of had to force myself to start reading it.

Who's your favorite character? In a way, it's got so many stereotypes in there, but still, it's really well done.

[lazlo falconi]

Well, it was Perrin, but with these last few books... I'm not so sure he's as great as I thought... Hm, that's a really tough question.

[Maelstrom]

I like Perrin too, and the conflict he's suddenly having doesn't really sit right with me either. And it seems like there's going to be a bigger focus on him in this next book. I mean, Galad's found him and learned that his mother's okay (well, probably). Tam reveals that Elayne's mother has been revealed as being still alive and among Perrin's camp. So, the next book will have to go back in time to those event and play 'em out for us.

Currently reading Seeing Redd, which is the second book in The Looking Glass Wars series. :)

I got the first Elder Scrolls book, The Infernal City, and I'll probably start reading it whenever I get around to finishing The Silmarillion.

Ack! Spoilers dude, I just started reading Chapter 7!

[Maelstrom]

No. not really spoilers. Those things are only passing mentions. Seriously. Like... the one or two lines I wrote is equivalent to the one or two lines actually about it in the book. So... I'm telling you stuff that should be in the next book and is only barely mentioned as much as I told you. You only know Galad's in the perrin's camp because of one of rand's ta'veren viewing. And Tam just says the queen is there but says she isn't the queen. So... no harm done, actually...

I'm currently reading Noonshade by James Barclay.

I'm also having to read Aphra Behn's Oroonoko, Nathaneal West's Miss Lonelyhearts, and James Joyce's Dubliners for university.

[Razel]

I want to read the gathering storm so much!
But i have no money ):

So I am reading 3 cups of Tea for my English class, not a bad book actually.

Got my copy of Pandora Hearts volumes 1 in the mail today~
I read the whole thing in between my afternoon classes today since the first one let out about 30 minutes early, and there's normally a 30 minute break in between them to begin with...

[lazlo falconi]

I've stopped reading because other things are taking up my time now...

[Stars]

Got the first Slayers light novel yesterday and read it last night. Got through the whole thing almost as fast as a new volume of manga, which surprised me considering the pages are filled with, y'know, words instead of pictures. There are some pictures now and then, but probably less than 10 pages worth in the whole book.

I gotta say, I personally loved it, but I wouldn't recommend the book to anyone who's not already a fan of the anime. I can imagine myself thinking it to be idiotic if I wasn't already familiar with the characters.

*goes back to watching Slayers NEXT*

Through the Darkness- Harry Turtledove

Just rereading his Darkness series while I wait for Part 2 of 3 of the last bits of the Wheel of Time.

[Kamau]

Arch Enemy, which is the third book in the Through the Looking Glass series. And hah, I just got the joke in the title.

[Monkeydog]

I'm half way through Malie Meloy's Liars and Saints. I would have finished if I didn't spend most of my day working on the other computer, bleh.

It's alright, I'm enjoying it far more than I was assuming I would. I just don't have high expectations for how this books is going to wrap itself up. [color=#000000;background:#000000;' onmouseover="this.style.color='#FFFFFF'" onmouseout="this.style.color='#000000']And god only knows there's going to be incest soon, it's so fucking obvious, if there isn't incest soon I'm going to be mad.[/color]

The reason for reading this book is my goal in trying to get through a couple of books I seem to just have stockpiled. The next book I'm going to read is either The Road, Blankets, or her brother's book. Colin's book is only 100 pages, so I could go through that quite quickly. I think I've already read like a quarter of it anyways.

SIGH. Too much.

[Kamau]

Actual book: Arch Enemy.
Actual manga: Chrono Crusade. Currently rereading volume 4, working on rereading all 8 in the series.
Online manga: Negima!. Currently on chapter 103/273, though I intend to switch to the actual manga whenever I reach the point where volume 23 starts.
