I'm currently working on Unfinished Tales

Miranda · 05-01-2003, 05:20 PM

The Saving Graces- some female empowerment book, or that's the impression I'm getting. Its pretty lame but I hate to give up on a book half way through! Mx

***IronParrot*** · 05-02-2003, 01:51 AM

Just started making my way through Miguel de Cervantes' Don Quixote for the first time (the Smollett translation).

elvendrummer87 · 05-02-2003, 04:53 PM

Just finished the Janet Evanovich books (so funny!) and am now working on the first Dragonlance book. (Dragons of Autumn Twilight)

Starr Polish · 05-02-2003, 06:02 PM

Siddhartha, by Herbert Hesse (?). It's...interesting.

druss · 05-02-2003, 07:38 PM

Read that years ago, and I don't remember much, other than that it was OK. I liked Steppenwolf better.

It's Hermann Hesse, by the way. Did you know he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1946?

LadyGreenleaf22 · 05-05-2003, 09:03 PM

I just finished a few books a little while ago.
Two excellent books Crown Duel and Court duel, and one called The China Garden...all fantastic books

Shadowfax · 05-14-2003, 07:55 PM

Almost finished "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest", which we're reading at school.

Gwaimir Windgem · 05-15-2003, 09:41 AM

Tolkien: Man and Myth by Joseph Pearce. Fascinating book which deals a good deal on Tolkien's view of myth.

Linaewen · 05-15-2003, 09:51 AM

Still trying to read TT....actually I think it's more accurate to say I'm reading Entmoot, since I spend so much time on it.

Afterwards:
-Hobbit & UT
-Huck Finn (reread)
-Great Expectations

And then some books I will need to borrow from the library (those ones I own)
-Bryce Courtenay books
-Non-Tolkien fantasy, mebbe the Wheel of Time
-Harry Potter 5

Grey_Wolf · 05-15-2003, 11:12 AM

At the moment I'm reading:

Churchill's History of English-Speaking Peoples 1: The Birth of Britain.

Edward Rutherfurd's London.

Michael Baigent's The Holy Blood And the Holy Grail.

and Herman Lindquist's History of Sweden 9: Dreams And Reality.

Huan · 05-15-2003, 11:13 AM

I just read a very funny book called Cad: Confessions of a Toxic Bachelor. I am trying desperately not to lose interest in The Corrections by Jonathan Franzen, the guy who got himself uninvited from Oprah's book list. Currently I'm plowing through all of Dan Savage's books.

Ruinel · 05-17-2003, 09:27 PM

Three to Get Deadly by Janet Evanovich

Gwaimir Windgem · 05-18-2003, 01:11 AM

Just finished Tolkien: Man and Myth. Beautiful book.

Am now commencing to read a pdf file of Dracula by Bram Stoker. I'm reading a pdf because I don't have the money to order it now.
