I'm reading Goose Girl, by Shannon Hale. I guess her books are technically for middle school-age kids, mostly girls, but her writing is pretty cool. I enjoy her characters, especially her heroines; they're very well characterized and unique. So it's coooool. :)
Got YWS?

I am reading Tamora Pierce's Wild Magic. I've only read the Song of the Lioness Quartet, none of her other series, shame on me, so i've decided to read them. I'm really liking it so far.

Upton Sinclair's The Jungle, yet - though it's not half bad, I don't know why Pros complained so much over it.

... And The Demon and Other Poems by Lermontov.

Agatha Christie :( I mean, I suppose she is good, but I never liked criminals...

So you're probably wondering why I am atually reading the book? Uhm, well, if you could just take a glance at my library... Hehehe...

The Tiger in the Well, by Philip Pullman. I've only read a few pages, but I like that he set up the conflict very early on. It's the third Sally Lockhart book. I liked the first one best, the second one a little less (to be completely honest, it was partially because my favorite characters died), but I'm pretty sure this one will be good too.

Um...I'm STILL reading The House of Mirth -- the reason I havent finished it yet is because I'm also reading Aunts Arent Gentlemen by Wodehouse and The Art of Living by Epitectus. Heh.
Got a poem or short story you want me to critique?
