    Will be finishing up with Ulysses soon. Have been thinking about picking up Finnegans Wake after I'm done. :)

    Currently reading: The Talisman by Stephen King & Peter Straub
    Next planned book: Black House by Stephen King & Peter Straub

    I bought Black House first, but was told it would be better if I read The Talisman first. I figure I can add some stats to the weight section of my exercise log while I'm reading it. It's not a small book, that's for darn sure... haha :happy:

    Currently I'm reading "The Hammer of Eden" by Ken Follett. It was given to me by a fellow bibliophile. Started reading it in the fall and had to put it down for the class I was studying. My test was Wednesday (passed! yay!) so I'm back to reading it again.

    I've got a long commute so I listen to a lot of audiobooks. Just finished up J.D. Robb's novelette "Posession in Death". And I'm waiting on 2 other audiobooks I've ordered from the library: "Darlkly Dreaming Dexter" (yes, that Dexter) by Jeff Lindsay and "Cloud Atlas" by David Mitchell.

    Right now, A Clash of Kings (and also Ethical Dilemmas in Youth Work, but I'm not nearly as excited about that one). Next up is A Storm of Swords.

    I got a Kindle Fire for Christmas, so I downloaded "The Hunger Games" free off Amazon (I know I'm a little behind). I plan on getting NROLFW next, and then I'll be back in school. That means instead of reading for fun, I get to read from textbooks for the next 5 months (it's all worth it in the end...it's all worth it in the end).

    Currently reading Wicked and re-reading One Hundred Years of Solitude and Anna Karenina. Not sure what I'll be working on next though. I might re-read the Sandman, Uncanny X Force, or Guardians of the Galaxy series, catch up on Walking Dead, or start Goon. I also need to start Game of Thrones.

    Some great books listed here I've already read and some I now want to read. Read the Hobbit years ago. Anyway:

    Now - Delusion in Death, book #39 by J.D. Robb (really Nora Roberts)

    Next is probably the newest Stephanie Plumb Nortious Nineteen by Janet Evonovich or the segual to Fall of Giants by Ken Follett, depends on if I want something serious or something light and funny.

    I LOVE Wuthering Heights. I recently read that and Jane Eyre. Both of them have now landed in my top 5 favorite books.
