Rather bored today so I started to read the hobbit for the third time when my Stephen King book I ordered The drawing of the three arrived. So im reading that now. Try the dark tower series if you are looking for something to read, its quite good.

Hmmm...Dune Messiah, I should read that soon!
I really liked Dune, and I want to continue reading more about it, but there are so many books that I have bought and not read yet!

IP's check-in:
I finished The Great Hunt and The Dragon Reborn, and now I'm continuing my WoT marathon with The Shadow Rising. Though I plan to continue WoT until I'm all caught up, in the meantime I plan to re-read Harry Potter and LOTR, as well as make a run at the two latest Clive Cussler novels, Atlantis Found (which my dad enjoyed a lot) and Valhalla Rising, which I purchased yesterday. I'll probably end up re-reading Gatsby and House of the Spirits at school, too.

what I'm reading now
I'm reading The Ultimate Hitchhiker's guide from Douglas Adams. I've been told it's a great book, so I'll have to see for myself Momentarilly I'm eagerly awaiting the next book of Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time saga, I especially enjoyed the last part of Winter's Hart. I'm looking forward to how the Seanchan plot will spill out Hope the story will soon find it's continuation.

Since my last post, I've re-read LOTR and the four existing Harry Potter books. I'm now on WoT #6, Lord of Chaos. I'm also doing L'Etranger (The Stranger or The Outsider) by Albert Camus in the original French.

I don't know, IP, maybe you already said it, but have you read Dune? I liked it...
Are you enjoying WoT? I'm trying to get my boyfriend into it, but he's reading other stuff....shame on him! I'm not reading anything currently...Oh wait. Stardust by Neil Gaiman. How could I forget?? |

Right now I'm reading Mossflower, the second boook in the Redwall series. It's actually pretty cool. It's all talking animals, mice and moles, and foxes, but it's still neat. As for Dune, I haven't read them yet but everone says that they're cool, so they're going on my to-read list.
