I'm nearly finished with Stephen King's Wastelands (book 3 in the Dark Tower series) and after I finish it I will be reading A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens.

Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keys

I've been told that it is a bore but I never judge a book by it's cover. I'll just have to find out myself..:D

Escape from Arylon, By Jo Wittemore. It's also the first book in the silverskin legacy. It's a pretty ok book.

I'm between books at the moment, though I'm likely to pick up "Twilight" by Stephanie Meyer from the depths of my bookshelf to read again.
I cannot name this
I cannot explain this
and I really don't want to
just call me shameless.

Re-reading Wars of Light and Shadow series by Janny Wurts, my favourite author. I'm up to Traitors Knot.

The House of Mirth by Edith Wharton. Sad, very sad. But superbly written. Lovely "voice". One of my absolute faves :D
Got a poem or short story you want me to critique?

Ah, the Bengali version and I'll have to get someone to read it (and translate a few words) for me.

Meet the Austins, Madeline L'Engle

I just finished re-reading An Unquiet Mind, by Kay Redfield Jamison. Good grief, I adore that book.

Idoru by William Gibson.


...I think it was CL that mentioned the name a few times; and I'd never read cyberpunk. Mind-blurring read for pace; fun. ^_^
