    I am also bathroom reading Bruce Lee's "The Tao of Jeet Kune Do".

    I am an avid reader, even more so since I got my Nook. I read incessantly. The Hunger Games triology (for young adults, but still good); The Language of Flowers, The Double Bind, We Have to Talk About Kevin (Creepy and very, very good), Sarah's Key, Midwives, Asylum (I just finished that one yesterday), and am now currently reading The Paris Wife which I've just started. I've read so many great books recently.

    Just finished First Marathons by Gail Waesche Kislevitz and now I'm reading Ready Player One by Ernest Cline. It's a great book especially if (like me) you grew up in the 80's.

    Reading the last book of the Game of Thrones series.


    I am on book 4 of the A Song of Fire and Ice series...however, I do have a question, how can you be on the last book if he hasn't even written it yet? I believe there are supposed to be 7 books and he just released the 5th book? I was just wondering! Didn't mean to sound rude or anything:flowerforyou:

    When I say last book I am referring to the last book that he has written (ala book 5)

    Totally agree on the Evanovich books. I always end up laughing out loud and I can't remember the last time I did that while reading!

    I'm reading book 5, 'A Dance with Dragons' of 'A Song of Ice and Fire' series, a.k.a 'A Game of Thrones' series. The series is like crack on paper, you just can't put the books down.

    I only get to read course work these days, but am in the middle of Virtuous Prince by David Starkey and The Time Traveller's Guide to Medieval England. I always have several books on the go.

    When Rabbit howls by the Troops for Trudi Chase.
    I like disturbing non-fiction...

    That is quite a book. I remember reading it years ago. It's excellent, disturbing, and thought-provoking.

    I've heard so many good things about Game of Thrones. Is the TV series better than the book?

    I said previously The Room but it is actually just called ROOM. It is by Emma Donoghue.

    I jumped on the War Horse bandwagon. Also, I just finished Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children to see if it would be suitable to read to my class. It was quite interesting!

    I haven't seen the series. I plan on picking it up on DVD in March though. The book is really good. I haven't found fantasy I've liked since Lord of the Rings, since most fantasy novels these days are a bit too high fantasy for my liking, and the heroes are all 16-18 year olds that wink at each other and tell jokes while they are killing monsters.

    EDIT: MFP's quote system is b0rken.

    LOL Yeah I know I read this One series called "City Of Bones" It was actually really good but wished it was more of an adult level.

    I could never get into LOTR. I mean I LOVE the movies and the characters are amazing but the books....ugh If i wanted to read 15 pages DETAILS of the hills and mountains I'd read a National Geographic.
