I buy all my books at garage sales and they sit on my shelves for a long time, so I'm kind of sporadic and always out of date with what I'm reading.
Currently in the middle of each:
Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury (lost it for a couple months, then found it cleaning!)
Scarlett by Alexandra Ripley (sequel to Margaret Mitchell's Gone with the Wind- pretty light reading, and I already knew the characters, so I like this one a lot so far)
Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert (About to finish this one tonight. Makes me excited for my travels this summer!)
Nepal by Lonely Planet (to prepare for aforementioned travels)
Yay!0 -

I love Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury (I had a similar cleaning up experience with Homers the Odyssey. Lost presumably forever then one day whilst hoovering there it was down the side of the sofa!!!)
I really hope you have a great time on your travels!0 -
So as the subject line suggests what is on your reading list at the moment?
Personally speaking I am midway through Moby **** by Herman Melville. but more excitedly my next book is Mary Shelley's 'Frankenstein'.....Can't wait to start it, what about you, what's on your reading list?
Did not care for Frankenstein by Shelley at all. I found Dracula rather tedious. Right now I am reading Dante's Inferno. Assigned college reading.0 -

That's another one on my MUST READ list....If you don't mind me asking, what didn't you like about Shelley's Frankenstein or Stokers Dracula?0 -
Book Yourself Solid and Selling the Invisible...
Would I be right in thinking they are self help books?0 -

More or less, I like to know of newer research with everything and having knowledge to back up my opinions and thoughts0 -

Visited the military museum here in Paris last week it is amazing to think that for hundreds of years human beings have been doing their up most to commit violent acts upon one another. All the ancient knights in armour stuff is OK as it goes but it doesn't really connect with us as modern people, but, when you get to the ww2 section, especially the collection of items taken from the death camps it really is quite thought provoking.
Anyway if you ever make it down this way I recommend it as a great day out (that sounds wrong, but it really is very interesting)0 -
