I'm always reading books, lots of books...books for school, books for fun, books out of boredom...the works.
Mainly scifi/fantasy for boredom/fun and historical texts and documents for school.
At the moment I just finished a re-read of Battle Royale and am starting in on some short story collections from 2002 out of boredom and needing something to browse before bed.

Well, right now I am trying to read Les Miserables.
I've always found it intimidating because of it's size, but I'm hoping I can get at least half way through it this summer. 3nodding
As for books I have read recently, I think the last book I actually finished was Fahrenheit 451, and that was a few months ago. sweatdrop I am very disappointed in myself.

Sounds Latin... Or something like that. I'm not sure. I don't know why, but I get the feeling that it's about people who are miserable. 0.0 Eh. I was wondering if anyone would ever post in this topic again. LOL.

I read the Penguin abridged version of Les Miserables a few years back... normally I run a mine from anything abridged (An external assualt on an integral artistsic vision! For shame! xd ) but it was an intense experience, with the story pared down that much, I can't really hold anything against it. Jean Valjean is a sensational character, though I was never quite happy with Cosette... probably more of a personal thing on my part. ^^; I read a volume of Megatokyo today, which I think reads better in print than on its website - found it in the town library, of all places... I've also just started one of the stories in 'The Ebony Tower' by John Fowles.

Middlesex - Jeffery Eugendes
It's about a hermaphrodite, but it isn't what you expect.
Its actually one of my favourite books now.

I'm almost done reading The Four Agreements, and I have to say it's very good. After that, I read Cowl.

I bought the book I have a while ago, and it got lost on my shelf (that's usual). But after I looked at it again recently I saw it wasn't really the first in a series, and I wanted to read the others first (I hate reading out of order). However, Borders didn't have the first one. I decided I would just read the book I have and then go back since it's basically a different story about the same person. I haven't started it yet, I'm still working on the other books I borrowed from friends whee

Alright, Cowl is very interesting so far. A very intriguing take on time travel.
