is there a trend in reading books in spanish? cuz i win with casa de los espiritus. read it in english first (house of spirits, Isabell Allende, amazing find her) i still have to finish it, though.
Others i have started to re-read...
Howl's Moving castle (4th time, at least, you can tell why i haven't finished)
Harry Potter books 1 and 7. (why i read the begining and end together baffles me)
others i re-read already...
Harry potter 6 (I know i'm a geek, who dares throw the first stone? Plus, I am hyped for the movie)
And lastly, the book i have only just started despite the fact that every girl in america would eat me for only just begining...
Breaking Dawn.
I asume the throng of males here have at least heard of such a ooey-gooey chick flick in the making? Gah! *creeps up on sister to steal book, only to find her clutching it as a mother would an infant, or the said infant an especially sensitizing dangling earring...*


Gosh, i should hope you guys at least read my rants, I find them thoroughly enjoyable.

Finished Pride and Prejudice a few weeks ago.  Finally got my nerve up to read The Lord of the Rings.  It's over 1,000 pages and is very daunting.   Undecided

Watchmen.

Yeah, I was pulled in by the trailer before The Dark Knight. I'm one of those. First real comic book or graphic novel that I've ever read.

'Bout the same as liberty's crusade in my estimation. Novelization of the zerg campaign combined with badly written and annoying retcons. Basically: Artanis is the executor, Tassadar is stupid, among other things.

Speed of Darkness is still unchallenged as the premier StarCraft book.

Good choice...

I have never read an Ayn Rand book, and never plan to.

If manga counts (can't remember, and don't feel like looking) recently read volumes 23 and 24 of Berserk, which continues, surprisingly, to get better and better, along with Bakuman, Vinland Saga and the first volume of Bitter Virgin.

I'm nearing the end of the second book in the "Wheel of Time" series, The Great Hunt. I can't quite place what it is I like so much about these novels.

I used to read a bunch of webcomics. I'd never pay to simply read them, though.

Finished The Great Hunt at about 7 in the morning yesterday. 'Twas good.

Oh, no, I don't pay, either, I meant that that publisher charges 11 dollars a manga, and I've only bought 7 from them, but it still empties my wallet...

College textbooks are rather exciting....

I guess that's understandable.

Last novel I read was "Full Metal Panic: Into the Blue".
