OMG! that book is one of my absolute favourite ! I read it for the first time many many years ago, when I was pretty young. My dad had it and I was too young to be allowed to read such books...But..I read it anyway..when my folks were asleep! Since then I've read it several times..hmm think I'm gonna go for it soon...

Ah, I always read four or five books at once, usually two or three novels and a few history or philosophy books. Right now I am reading "The Hot Zone" by Richard Preston, "The Count of Monte Cristo" by Alexander Dumas, "The English Philosophers from Bacon to Mill" edited by Edwin A. Burt, "A History of the Ancient World" by Chester G. Starr, and Hannibal (of Carthage) by an author I cannot seem to recall.

I've been reading D. M. Cornish's Monster Blood Tattoo series. They're alright books. If you're willing to put up with his obsessive need to list every detail that could possibly be listed. >>
It's a shame too. The more tense action is quite good while the ideas are sound and interesting.
I'm only finishing the second because my friend and I decided we'd do a book club thing (as she moved pretty far away with her boyfriend and I never see her). She isn't really enjoying it a lot either. Very slow read, trying to sit through the place names (especially of places and locations the main character will never ever visit) and the author's need to tell us four different names for one thing when he'll only ever use one name from then on (sometimes he'll bring out one of the other names and just confuse me more too).

Reading the Odyssey by Homer. It's a really interesting but hard read.

I just finished Laurence Rees' "Auschwitz: A New History" (which, btw, was a really stupid choice for reading before bedtime [alas, the only time it seems I have to read ]...but a fascinating read nonetheless) and Brooke Allen's "Moral Minority" (a much better choice, and a fascinating read as well). Now I'm starting Alison Weir's "Mary Queen of Scots and the Murder of Lord Darnley". I've read other books of hers, and they are fantastic, so I'm excited!
