I just finished with the fifth book in the A Song of Ice and Fire series, A Dance with Dragons. Rather enjoyable, but honestly, I feel like Martin has lost his touch since the ending of A Storm of Swords. Maybe I'll be eating these words when the next book is released.

Speaking of which, since there's no word on when The Winds of Winter will be released, I've decided to cave in to the peer pressure and bought The Fault in Our Stars. I'll start it once it arrives on Friday.

I just finished State of Fear by Michael Crichton. It is excellent. It exists for the express purpose of destroying global warming from a perfectly executed scientific standpoint. And it still manages to be incredibly exciting. Always leaving you wondering what is going to happen next.

I'm now reading Airframe. Also by Michael Crichton. Then after that, probably Disclosure. I might keep going with many of his books. He's rapidly becoming my favorite author.

These last couple of months, I've been plowing through the Song of Ice and Fire series by George R.R. Martin. I'm currently reading the fifth book in the series, A Dance with Dragons.

On a less exciting note, I've also been forced to read Into the Wild for my English class. Jesus Christ, I hate this book. It's so boring. It feels like a super long, pointless magazine article. Chris McCandless was an arrogant, idiotic guy who almost deserved what happened to him.

As I said before, I was getting around to Michael Crichton's book Disclosure. I have now. I liked it. I also read Sphere. I'm considering reading the Andromeda Strain next. But I've also got an urge to reread the Harry Potter series. And also to read the novelizations of the last two Star Trek films. So I'm not sure. But I would recommend The Crichton books I just finished, Disclosure, and Sphere.

I just finished Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of the Patriots. Decent and accurate novelization. Can't wait to read MGS4 soon.

I'm about halfway through a book called The Cure by Dr. Timothy Brantley. It's about healing your body naturally through nature's nutrients, and while I don't agree with all of his points, it's still really interesting, and I have learned a lot. I'll probably read it again in the future just in case I happened to gloss over something. Maybe I'll pick up something I didn't before.
