I just finished reading "Slow death". True life story of a guy New Mexico who was a warped sadist. Interesting story, but the writing didn't impress me.

Lets see, what am I NOT reading right now. Just finished The Sandman series by Neil Gaiman for the 3rd time. I'm bad about re-reading stuff I've read a dozen times. Recently finished "The Runaway Jury" by John Grisham and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (3rd time). I've been reading a little from a book of Native American poetry, some of the Chronicles of Narnia (4th time) and some of Lewis Carroll's poetry from a "Best of" book I've had for years and never read. Hopefully I"ll make it Tuesday to the mall and pick up Neil Gaiman's "Fragile Things" and a copy of X3!

I read the book American Gods (?) by Neil Gaiman. Interesting, but a bit long. I just finished reading "Dead Witch Walking" by Kim Harrison. The writing style is a bit bumpy, but I am optimistic it will progress, so I bought the next one. (Anita Blake fans might check this serious out).

I just started reading "In Cold Blood" by Truman Capote.


I just went back and was reading some of the earlier posts in this thread and noticed that Jax was reading this earlier in the year. Great minds huh Jax? :rofl:

I'm changing things up a bit and going way, way, way, waaaaaay on the light side and am thumbing through Jeff Foxworthy's Redneck Dictionary II. Just a tad bit easier read than the one I just finished. ;)

Game of Shadows

I'm reading three books right now.

1633 by David Weber and Eric Flint. I've got some of the rest of the series around here too that I've borrowed from my dad. It's decent historical fiction about a late 20th Century early 21st century West Virginia coal mining town that gets transported to the middle of Germany during the 30 Years War. The first book is 1632.

Artemis Fowl The Eternity Code by Eoin Colfer. I've never read any other books in this series but this one was on sale at Walmart so I picked it up.

Good to Great, by I don't know who since I'm reading it for work so I'm reading it at work.

I just finished reading "Fun Home" by Alison Bechdel. Excellent. I finished it in one day.

I'm about to read "Pleasure Dome," an erotic yaoi-manga collection of several stories in digest form by Megumu Minami.

LOL... that is too funny. I just finished Mistral's Kiss by Laurell K Hamilton (Antia Blake author) and was looking at the Dead Witch series by Harrison.

I too re-read a lot of my series books...

I am about to re-read Jean Auel's Earth Children Series. I understand there is a 6th book, but it takes about 10 years between books... :(

Just finished Eragon by Christopher Paolini

Never Where, and Stardust are better books IMO by Gaiman. He's probably my favorite author.
