    Just finished the first part of A Dance with Dragons: Dreams and Dust

    Now taking a little break from good old George R.R. Martin before I move onto the second part of that book by reading something completely different; Invitation to a Beheading by Nabokov

    I thought Lolita was spell-bindingly written and that Nabokov has a supreme mastery of the English language which is even more incredible when you consider his native tongue is Russian. I'm excited to read more of his works.

    Never read anything by a Russian author. Is Nabokov an okay place to start?

    Lolita I was okay with, I absolutely loved Ada or Ardor.

    I'm rereading far from the tree by a Drew Solomon

    http://www.farfromthetree.com/

    Our attitude toward identities and illnesses is forever shifting. Moments of explosive change sometimes come through scientific discovery, such as the finding of the genetic factors influencing autism, and sometimes through personal epiphany—finding deeper meaning in a punishing experience. Social change can also be achieved through a legal advance, such as the Americans with Disabilities Act.

  • I'm about 800 pages into A Dance with Dragons by George R.R. Martin (book 5 of Game of Thrones)

    I'm halfway through A Feast For Crows (book 4) and something better happen soon. This book is dragging on unlike the others in the series.

    I can't wait for next Sunday to see how they finish up the third book! SO MUCH good stuff happens at the end of Storm Of Swords!
