what book are you reading?

I also read my holy bible every day as well.

'When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops?' by George Carlin. He's my hero.

At the time I'm reading "De vita Pythagorica" by Iamblichus of Chalcis, who was a Greek philosopher and lived in the 3/4th century A.D.; in his work he writes about the life of the great Greek philosopher Pythagoras (6th century B.C.). I would recommend it for everyone as it is, in its own right, a classic, as well as an important document of ancient Greek's history and the history of Philosophy.

I'm reading Hamlet!
'Tis about how the King of Denmark poisoned his brother (who was the king at the time) and then married his wife, then the first King comes back as a ghost to tell his son, Hamlet, of what his uncle did: "But know, thou noble youth, the serpent that did sting thy father's life now wears his crown", then Hamlet sets out to prove the ghost is right, get his revenge and everyone thinks he is going mad. I think it's probably Shakespeares most complex tragedy and I'd love to see the play :)

The Hobbit...I swear for the past three days in English (and roll call) I've only ever been able to read the first page...shows how good my attention span is....

I know what you mean! It took me the best part of the year to get a quater of the way through the first LOTR book, then I gave up. If they didn't sing and walk as much I could have mangaged.

I'm busy reading A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett, but I'm also just about to start reading What Katy Did Next by Susan Coolidge (yes, I read two books at once). I'm also flipping through one of my old favourites, Girls Out Late by Jacqueline Wilson.
(Yes, I read way too much)

Sadly I make the mistake of reading many books at once. I believe I'm reading The Good German, 'The Longest Cocktail Party', Don't Look Back in Anger and Lester's bookie wookie.

Oh, also The Lord of the Rings.

Dan, have you read Brain Droppings? I was not a big fan before that, and he is so absurd and a great reader of society, I thought I was going to die countless times from laughing so hard that I couldn't catch my breath.

'Lord of the Flies' Yet again!! For my GCSE you see. It's alright I suppose though.

Great read.

About a week ago I finished "Jamaica Inn" by Daphne du Maurier. I was intrigued by the dark and gothic story, but during reading that book, sometimes I was a little bit scared. So, at last I had a nightmare...whenever I opened the door, another door appeared in front of me and no matter how many doors I opened I couldn't go out of the room I happened to burst into. Scared as I was, I felt it kind of funny...
I began to read her other book titled "My Cousin Rachel"

Oh, you live in Cornwall?
Of course the place name is familiar to Queen fans (esp. to Roger fans), and I've had more interest in it since I read the book. Well, I like Wuthering Heights as a dark classic.

i'm done with the series of unfortunate events, so...
