I was reading Eight Lives Down by Chris Hunter; its about the Royal Ligistic Corps Bomb Disposal Team (Also known as EOD [Explosive Ordnance Disposal]) in Iraq. And how this guy pissed the insurgents off so much that they began to target him, the books very well written and I really enjoyed it.

Now how ever since I finished that book, I'm just flipping through different ones, been Reading War of the Flowers by Tad Williams which is also quite enjoyable. Oh and "The Highway Code" by the AA. Very enjoyable, characters feel almost life like >_> <_<

"The Sword of Shannara" by Terry Brooks. It's really not a very good book =/ The descriptions are wonderful, but his characters use dialogue as a function of storytelling, not of character development, and the entire thing is basically a huge LotR ripoff. I'll probably finish it SOMETIME though.

Just finished "Vixen 03" by Clive Cussler. It's not heaps deep, but it's good as a light novel where you don't have to think much.

Deathly Hallows. For the first time. Yeah, I'm a little behind.

After I finish that I'm gonna start reading Looking For Alaska by John Green. Should be good.

I just finished Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger
it was an amazing book with a very small influence in story and a bigger influence in symbolism and character development. I just liked the way the story was told.

I'm currently reading Three Cups of Tea by Greg Mortenson.

I'm also reading The Unfit: History of a Bad Idea for my History of Eugenics Class and The Seven Daughters of Eve by Brian Sykes for my science course. I highly recommend the latter.

I'm rereading V For Vendetta. When I finish this I may reread The Crow, and then go and buy another volume of Fruits Basket (I've got up to volume 14 so far) and read that and then reread Watchmen when I get it back from that friend I lent it. Then I may track down From Hell...

I haven't read any books without pictures in a scarily long time come to think of it 0_o

Right now I'm reading Stone Angel by Margaret Lawrence for school.
I should finish it today, so I might give Confederacy of Dunces another go.
