Reading Manwatching by Desmond Morris. It's an old school book about body language and human behavior. It also has a funny name.

Lucky by Alice Sebold. It's the true story of her rape and the trial.
|
'Huckleberry Finn' by Mark Twain. Pretty good, but is kind of slow here and there. 'Tom Sawyer' was better.

Reading my way through Jodi Picoult's books- she has a wonderfully descriptive prose.
|
I just got done with breaking dawn. <333
|
Right now I'm reading two different books. Choke and Running with Scissors. Both are really good.
|
Jimmy The Hand, by Raymond E. Feist. I haven't read much of it yet, but I've read about 10 other books by him and enjoyed them all, so I have high hopes for this one!
|
I'm rereading Een Schitterend Gebrek by Arthur Japin. It's translated into English by the name of In Lucia's Eyes
It's such a great book telling the story of one of Giacomo Casanova's first loves. (who practically went trough as much as Casanova himself) |
Nefertiti by Michelle Moran (re reading, but still counts) |
Betrayed by P.C & Kristin Cast
|
Me Talk Pretty One Day, by David Sedaris, and Saturday, by Ian McEwan.
|
The Birth of Venus by Sarah Dunant
I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!! ![]() |
Saving Charlie, based on Charlie Andrews from Heroes, and what actually happened to her. It's written by Aury Wallington.
Also I'm reading a Catherine Alliot book: A crowded marraige And I did start reading Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy but I don't think I can be bothered after watching the movie :P |
At the moment I'm reading Something Rotten by Jasper Fforde. It's part of a series that I would recommend anyone to check out..
![]() I'm also reading a book by Michael Moorcock (can't remember the name), a french translation of Harry Potter (the fourth one), and a book by David Eddings (also can't remember the name lol). I read about a chapter of each, a night, though less on the Harry Potter one, because I'm not very good at french lol. |
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. I deciede to re-read the whole series!
I also got the other queen by Phillpa Gregory for christmas, so I am going to be reading that soon! |
Slash's autobiography and When the Duke Returns by Eloisa James.
Love that historical fiction. angelsavoir, the other queen is a good book. read the other boleyn if you find it anywhere. that's a good one. i'm looking for the movie from it to buy. |

Oh, it's SO worth it. The book's 100000000000 times better :-D I'm reading a cookbook called Meat and 2 Veggies. It was a christmas present :-) It's all about how to cook easy, simple meals for both meat eaters and vegetarians without being driven completely insane. Very very useful for me! I'm also reading a book called Dragonology that my parents bought for my boyfriend for christmas. It's quite cool. Dragons are awesome! :-D |

I'm reading that too! It's great so far, but I was surprised to find out that Fat Charlie and most of the people in the book were black. For some odd reason, I had envisioned them all to be white, so I had to come up with a completely different visualization in my head. LOL |
