Re: What Book Are You Reading?
My soul to take by steve morgan
Flown down by ravens and stolen by the dawn's first rays, night mares stalk the night. Through dusty windows and cracked glass, they watch the weary rest till mornings rise.

Re: What Book Are You Reading?
I have a pile of books to take on vacation next week, the one I'm most excited about is "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies." If nothing else, greatest title ever.
Yes, I thought so. Just watch your step or I'm totally telling.

Re: What Book Are You Reading?
I hope your books enjoy their vacation.
"Let me tell you this: if you meet a loner, no matter what they tell you, it’s not because they enjoy solitude. It’s because they have tried to blend into the world before, and people continue to disappoint them."

It rather depends on whether you're a fan of Jane Austen really, which could politely be referred to as something of "an acquired taste" for some. Thing is, it's not just based on Pride and Prejudice, it actually is Pride and Prejudice for the large part, with some zombie paragraphs and scenes written in along the way.
I think the author's also doing Sense and Sensibility and Sea-Monsters, btw...

They should do a movie or mini series about it, after the torture I had to go through having to watch that movie as a child I would just love to see Colin Firth eaten to death by zombies, take that Darsey. I just wanted to watch teenage mutant ninja turtles mum, ninja turtles ![Hmm [^o)]](/emoticons/emotion-40.gif) ![WTF [:wtf:]](/emoticons/wtf.gif)

Pants on fire by Meg Cabot. Its so simple but oh it appeals to the romantic inside. Also its a distraction while I wait for Arcana volume 5.![Smily [:)]](/emoticons/emotion-1.gif)

Re: What Book Are You Reading?
A Fortress of Grey Ice by J. V. Jones. I recently received A Sword From Red Ice as a gift, and since it's been 7 years since I read the books preceding, I had to start all over again.
Curse you, J. V. Jones, and your inability to write a novel for this series in less than three years!! ![Angry [:@]](/emoticons/emotion-12.gif)

It was actually very awesome, the zombie menace was a lot more involved in the story than I expected. Naturally I had to come home and make my Fable2 hero look like Elizabeth Bennet and hack apart hollow men. Does that make me weird?
But 'twas quite ![G o o d [Good]](/emoticons/g_o_o_d.gif) , can't wait for S&S&S now.

Re: What Book Are You Reading?
I'm currently reading Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov whose name I had to copy and paste from Wikipedia. It's a very interesting book, and I've found that I can hardly put it down.
Mind you, I'm slowly drifting away from it and onto Neuromancer by William Gibson which I haven't even started.
I only wrote this because I hate you.

Re: What Book Are You Reading?
Soon to be reading Bloodhound by Tamora Pierce. I got to get around to picking it up. In between I'm rereading Richard Laymon and Stephen Laws.

Re: What Book Are You Reading?
Daninsky:Book two of the old V spin-offs and soon as that is finished the second book in the Alpha and Omega series by Patricia Briggs: "Hunting Ground"
Are you talking about V, the old 80's series about the aliens? I am reading A Lion among Men by Gregory Macguire. It is the third book in his Wicked series, which is a series of books, set in Oz. The first one shows the story from the wicked witch's perspective and is really ![G o o d [Good]](/emoticons/g_o_o_d.gif) . So ![G o o d [Good]](/emoticons/g_o_o_d.gif) , they made it into a Broadway musical! However, as always, the book is soooo much better. However, these are not children's books, especially not the first. There is a lot of sex, sometimes between species.

Yes, exactly. Just bought the V: The Second Generation, which I'm gonna read after Hunting Ground. I'm doing a little quarter century celebration, and cutting short the waiting time for the new show. ![Smily [:)]](/emoticons/emotion-1.gif)
