I'm in the play, so reading it helps.
When you look at your life, in a strange new room, maybe drowning soon, is this the start of it all?

The Firm by John Grisham.
I've heard it's one of his best, but I like The Last Juror and The Broker more.

I'm reading Macbeth for school, and privately, I started with the Twilight Series all over again.
I also read the Twilight Movie Companion, if looking at awesome pictures with some text here and there counts ;)

I am currently reading - The Forgotten Garden by Kate Morton. I hope it is as good as her first one 'The House at Riverton' Which I adored!

And also an assortment of stupidly complicated texts for university :(

No, it's not that you didn't succeed. You accomplished a lot, but, if you want to touch people, don't concentrate so much on rhyme and metre. Think more about what you want to say instead of how you're saying it.
