Last book I read was Everlost by Neal Shusterman. It's part of the Skinjacker trilogy. So good! Any bookby Neal is so good. And he's really nice in person too

Favorite book? I think that would have to be Gamer Girl by Mari Mancusi. It's so nice to lose oneself in a book, isn't it?

Confessions by Jean-Jacques Rousseau

A good book.

Had to read two books for my english course this semester: Survivor by Chuck Palahniuk (of Fight Club fame) and Darkly Dreaming Dexter by Jeff Lindsay.

Survivor was absolutely bizarre and thoroughly enjoyable, while Dexter was just okay. At least the TV show is highly enjoyable.

Right now I'm over halfway through 11/22/63 (huzzah King!) and it's ****ing superb thus far.

It was such a dense book -- it took forever to get through the introductions to the characters. I read the first 200 pages over the span of a month and then went camping and read the last ~900 in two days, though... absolutely incredible. Finish it, yo.

It is actually alluded to in 11/22/63, which I found incredibly neat, but by now it's almost typical of King to maintain the connections between books.

**** this essay I have to write, I'm reading 11/22/63 instead.

The last book I read was "Mockingjay" by Suzanne Collins. What with the movie on the horizon it was only right that I catch up.

I'm not reading anything at the moment but the next book I plan to read is "Deadline" by Mira Grant. It's the sequel to "Feed" which I read last year, and part of the Newsflesh trilogy about bloggers in a post-zday world. It's better than it sounds.

My favorite book... oh damn, that's a TOUGH one. I'm free to change my mind at any time, but I think that would be "Time of the Eagle" by Sherryl Jordan.

Re: The Last Book You Read, etc, etc

It's not surprising that there is such a large hold list for that book. It's a good thing that I just buy any books I'm reasonably certain I'll enjoy. Besides, if I hadn't've bought it, my stepfather would've -- he's an avid King fan like me.

In the past month I've read the last of the Inheritance Cycle - Inheritance by Christopher Paolini, The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini, and still reading The English Patient by Michael Ondaatje.

Re: The Last Book You Read, etc, etc

I just finished reading "Legend" by Marie Lu.
Kinda predictable and a little childish, but a fun read nonetheless. Pretty short, too. 6/10

Re: The Last Book You Read, etc, etc

I finished The Demonata series by Darren Shan a little while back...
planning on reading: Cirque de freak

EDIT: you should take the time to invest in reading a novel called: Lolita
it is by Vladimir Nabokov...

you might be turned off of reading it when you find out what it's about though...
but then again the best novels are always "Unique"

Yes, very good series, I finished that book in November. Are you going to catch the Hunger Games movie?

For sure. I can't wait, haha. I've re-read the series multiple times, and I must say: I never get tired of it.
