What book(s) are you currently reading?
I just finished the Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan and don't know what to read next so I'm curious about what everyone else is reading or even what books you love so much that you would read again.
I'm currently rereading Dune, but that's only a week worth of reading to get through the original stuff (his son's additions don't do anything for me).
I'm not all Fantasy and SciFi either. One of my favourite authors is Haruki Murakami.
Anyway.... Suggestions? General book love? Amuse me!

I love Stephen King. I'm waiting for my Mom to finish up so I can read borrow her copy.
I also have a kind of morbid fascination with criminals. Not an idolization, but more a curiosity about what makes them do what they do. I'll definitely have to check out the book on Gacy.0 -

I'm currently reading Sybil by Flora Rheta Schreiber. For those that don't know, it's the true story of a woman with Multiple Personality Disorder (now called Dissociative Identity Disorder). It's good, in parts horrifying, and in other parts a little slow.0

Started Ken Follett's "A Dangerous Fortune", enjoying it so far. I like anything he's written though.0

Thank you all so much! I feel like I want to read all of those.0

I just started Life of Pi. It is very good so far.
If you are interested, "Cutting For Stone" is a fantastic book.
Long but worth the read. Your library may even have it on CD.0 -
Started "The Amazing Adventures of Dietgirl" by Shauna Reid (my copy is in Finnish) the same day I joined MFP! :bigsmile:0

yes, i am the same. i read a lot of true crime books. the Gacy book is super interesting because it's written by HIS defense attorneys. haha. it's cool to see the story from that perspective.
the stephen king book is HUGE. so looking forward to it. also, i am very much looking forward to his conclusion of the shining! ahhhh! horror!0 -

Currently reading Sacred by Dennis Lehane. It's the third in the Kenzie/Gennaro series. Just a little mystery fluff before I start something dark and heavy again. I do love Dennis Lehane. He throws some mad twists into his books.0

Trout Kill by Paul Dage a Northwest writer. This book is not one of your happy dance books but certainly one that kept me interested and waiting for his next book.

Finished "Wheel of Time", well done! I'm on book 5 and I know it's literaly going to take a decade to finish (I read a lot in between books). A Song of Ice and Fire (aka Game of Thrones) is another good, dense sorta-fantasy series. I just started "City of Bones", too early to tell if I'll like it or not though. Yay reading! :drinker:0

my Leisure reading is kind of going at a snail's pace. mostly because I'm stuck in the whole of textbooks right now. I've been working on A Storm of Swords though. It's the 3rd book of the Game of Thrones series0
