It's an amazing book.

I'm not actually reading anything, though in the next few days I will start Farewell to Arms.

I'm only up to page 60 of northern lights
It's one of the books that's being read on and off at the moment
I'm enjoying it though, it's very well written and it's made me feel very guilty about borrowing it from my cousin and then leaving it on my shelf for 3 months

I love His Dark Material's Trilogy! Every time you read it you notice new things and learn more about the Church (even if it's not in our world...)

I'm currently reading Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince. Again. It's to refresh my memory before the last one comes out.

Again, Bechka? You must enjoy that, hm?

I'm actually reading two things A Farewell to Arms by Hemingway, which I'm enjoying, but would enjoy more if I didn't have to analyze it so much, and Characters, Emotion, & Viewpoint by Nancy Kress. It's an OK book. Good enough to get me thinking on my characters. Seems odd that a book on writing would have grammar errors.

War of Wars by Robert Harvey -- a deliciously large history book on the whole of the Napoleonic and Revolutionary Wars.

To me ... heaven.

I'm currently re-reading The Fellowship of the Ring. I'm only on chapter 6: The Old Forest. I picked it up because I wanted to refer to it for info. on elves, but then I realized that I haven't read much fantasy in awhile and that the movie version of FOTR had polluted my mind.

Before that, I read Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing, which I very much enjoyed and recommend.
Home is where the books are.
