As of this moment in time, I am reading Aunt Dimity: Vampire Hunter. I can't think of the author right now, and I'm too lazy to check... So, yeah...

[Beany]

I am now reading half an autobiography. Then I'll read the phone book.

[LaLou]

Any suggestions?

Terry Pratchett, Discworld series, 38 books so far. Should keep you occupied for a while.

[Dowster]

If I had time to read, I would like to try some of these books http://www.joeabercrombie.com/

But I doubt it's ever gonna happen

At this moment in time, I'm reading the Pendragon series. There's 8 or 9 books.

[Beany]

What are they about?

[Yaz Pistachio]

They're about a boy named Bobby Pendragon who figures out that he is the "Traveler" from Second Earth. Travelers go from territory to territory (basically from planet to planet) that has reached its turning point, where the territory will either carry on peacefully or tumble into chaos. The man trying to send each territory into chaos is Saint Dane. Bobby's job, along with his Uncle Press, is to stop Saint Dane and save each territory.

In book one, he goes to Denduron, where a civil war is about to break out. In book teo, he goes to Cloral, a territory completely covered by water. The food supply has been poisoned, and Bobby needs to fix it. I just started book three.

Are these American books or English?

This is a bit of genius. First you have this:

And right next you have this!

Marketing genius! How many idiot Palin followers are going to buy the wrong book? I hope a million or so! Ha ha ha ha!

I'm reading a book called "going bovine" (It's all lowercase on the cover), it's really good, incredibly random, and not suitable for small children.

Are these American books or English?

A-merry-can, it takes place in New York.

This past summer, I finished up "The Hannibal" and "The Innocent Man"

About to read the Halo Saga from book 1.

Hope to finish by the end of 2010.

I just read this book called 'My Side Of The Story.' Funniest thing I've ever read. Its about this gay teenager. Crappy storyline, but its really funny. I found it in HMV and read the first page and really liked it, so my friend bought it for me as an early birthday present. This is a bit from it:

'My name is Jarold, but everyone calls me Jaz, which is a damn sight cooler, I think you'll agree. I know that everyone hates their names blah-blah but mine is really bad so it's lucky it abbreviates to something with a bit of cred. I'm sixteen (just) and I have two remarkably undivorced parents, along with a sister and a grandmother and we all live in the same house together just like in a TV show. I've just started my A levels too, which me and Al are planning to fail, which is our way of saying smurf You to the British educational standard.'

I finished the first two books to a series called the "Hunger Games". They are incredibly good, actually. The third one is suppose to come out in august.

Now I am reading an EMO vampire series called "(something, something) Vladmir Todd".

[Shay]

I swear I did not borrow the Twilight book collection from my friend.

[chex]

I was contemplating reading them.

Just so I can mock them more accurately.

[Yaz Pistachio]

Okay, the books are actually really good.

Good for you, Shay.

I have been at Sean's everyday for the last week or more. Tonight I will stay home after work. I am actually excited to read the books and I hate reading.

[Yaz Pistachio]

Yay for Shay!
