A Splendid Solution: Jonas Salk and the Conquest of Polio by Jeffrey Kluger. It is awesome. You should read it.

I'm on Wuthering Heights! Feeling very intellectual reading that in the departures lounge of Gatwick airport. Other than that, I have three feminist novels for my english dissertation. And also A Streetcar Named Desire. And a critical theory textbook I have to use.

All this juggling books is making me stressed

Harry potter And The Goblet Of fire!

Well, I just finished reading JUNK

Hmm... i just finished The Extraordinary Adventures Of Alfred Kru(u?)p and Kimchi And Calamari. Sorta reading The Sword Of Shanara, whenever i can from my reading/language arts teacher's library, trying to read The Kingdom Keepers, and since i'm a total mega-nerd, Webster's Dictionary (barely through the A's.) Oh, and The Holy Bible. See, told you i was a nerd!

I'm reading Sense and Sensibility by Austen for my Jane Austen class (I'm nearly finished and then I'll be reading Emma)

For my creative writing class I'm reading Junot Diaz's The Brief and Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao (he's visiting my school next wednesday and my class gets to have an advanced workshop with him!!!!!) We also read bunches of short stories from The New Granta Book of the American Short Story which I like a lot.

For my pleasure, I'm going to Borders today to buy The Virgin Suicides (I saw Sam's recommendation and decided I should check it out). Hopefully there will be other books that catch my fancy

Well, I've just started reading Wolf Island by Darren Shan by by the time I post on YWS again I'll have finished it.

- Reading, but have almost finished, Great Expectations
- Have begun The Scarlet Letter - Am enjoying, despite the negatives reviews I've heard.
- Today I started snooping the first few pages of The Shipping News which looks pretty intriguing.

I'm reading Sense and Sensibility by Austen for my Jane Austen class

The only one I haven't read - liked the film, though. Persuasion is my ultimate favourite.

I'm reading Unwind by Neal shu.... something or other :S
It's the 21st century equivalent of 1984. Best book I've read in a long time.

I'm reading The Listmaker. It's kind-of a younger book, and I've already read it once before, but it's not too bad, and I didn't want to be reading something to difficult as I go back to school again.

Plus it's been sitting on my shelf for ages, screaming out to be read and I hadn't gotten around to it until now.

i was reading breaking dawn, but now i am going to read Nora Robert's Angels' fall

Atonement, it's beautiful, I loves it.

Contemplating Adultery: The Secret Life of a Victorian Woman by Lotte and Joseph Hamburger. It's a NF biography of Sarah Austin and her affair with a German Prince. It's...interesting, to say the least XD

White Oleander by Janet Finch (I think)

Saiyuki Reload manga (for the first time)

I'm reading

-Ninth Grade Slays (sequel to Eighth Grade Bites)--The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod by Heather Brewer

-The Shack by William P. Young

-Brisingr by Christopher Paolini

-The Cry of the Icemark by Stuart Hill

-Storm Thief by Chris Wooding

Yeah...I'm surprised I could get all that right.


At least I think I got it all....
