The Chronicles of Amber:the Hand of Oberon by Roger Zelazny.This is the second time I'm reading through the Chronicles of Amber series(Well the first 5 since those are the only ones I own)but still these are some of my favorite books of all time.

Gauntlgrym, by RA Salvatore. I'm at chapter 2, I think. I used to love this author's writing, but after the opening of this book, and up to the point where I am now, I think his writing sux now: too much detail.

Not currently reading, but I will be reading The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton and Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card on my trip. Also, some other books that I'm planning on reading in the near future are The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls, The Shining by Stephen King, and Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury.

I read all dem mainstream books, mmm qimme dat.

"Vacuum Diagrams", by Stephen Baxter.

It's one part of the Xeelee Sequence, a series of hard SF space opera novels and short stories about a cosmic war between various species against the god-like Type IV civilization of the Xeelee. It's probably the most epic in scope SF series I've ever read. Screw galaxy-spanning space operas like Star Wars, this stuff is cosmos-spanning. The idea content is mind-bending and the action is epic. Great characters too.

 

[Snow Queen]

Hyrool Hysteria

 

[Stitch]

Red Dragon by Thomas Harris

 

[Firice da Vinci]

I am currently reading How To Read A Book by Alder Mortimer and I believe it's the first edition, as the second and most recent is not available online. Why am I reading a bok on reading a book? Because, despite my A average in Reading, I can't seem to even understand the first page in The Iliad.

Going through the "A Song Of Ice And Fire"

 

[Violet Link]

I'm going through Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher, and I'm starting to read North of Nowhere by Liz Kessler after reading TRW.

 

[Sydney]

I've recently finished both Divergent and Insurgent, both of which were fairly good. Though I can't get over the fact that Four is supposed to be White, because I can only imagine him as Black/African American.

 

[PokaLink]

I'm trying to read The fellowship of the rings, but i can't get into it like i did the Hobbit, idk if i'll finish it.

 

[Fraxinus]

The Eternity Cure by Julie Kagawa. Been waiting for this book for at least a year now, so... yey. Just... dystopian tales, widespread illness, humanity on the brink of extinction, and vampire shizzle. Didn't know it was the last in the series, though. Little bummed about that. I just hope it's a powerful conclusion, then.

 

[Reaca]

I'm going to start rereading A Song of Ice and Fire today. So I guess I'll be reading A Game of Thrones.

I just finished Tale of Two Summers - Brian Sloan

This book is very interesting. Told from the perspective of two characters, Hal (gay) and Chuck (straight), through the medium of blog entries. They have been best friends for ten years, and for the first time since they've known each other, they end up spending their summer vacation apart. The blog, aptly named "Tale of Two Summers", was the idea that Charles came up with in order for them to not only stay in touch, but have a written record of their summer for posterity. It's through these blogs that we get an incite into the characters' lives and how they deal with the different situations and emotions that they encounter on a day-to-day basis.

This book has a really good message to it and it's a shame that it's not more widespread.
