I'm currently on Goodbye to all that by Robert Graves as it's one of the few books in the house I haven't read yet. Quite liking it.

[hr]

I read most of the night and go south in winter - wasteland

[macgamer]

Trying to wade through The Brothers Karamazov, which is very entertaining.

Just started Ludmila's Broken English by DBC Pierre - really enjoyed Vernon God Little so I thought I'd try his new book.

[Malcolm]

Life Of Pi, never actually read it.

It's an extremely good book, well worth the hype it got. I thoroughly recommend it.

[Satine]

The Greek Myths by Robert Graves because I'm still in denial that I've actually graduated and don't need to read these things any more! It's actually incredibly interesting though.

[Power Metal Dom]

I've just finished Angels and Demons - Dan Brown last night...must say I was a little dissapointed. Now I'm reading Deception Point...I want to see what the fuss is about

[hr]

Like flames on fuel...upon power metal I drool

The works of H. Rider Haggard. A reread, but well worth it. Also Old Goriot by Honore Balzac.

One can never have too much Campbell-Black.

[Cain]

Invisible Monsters is the most messed up book that I've read. Good, but messed up.

I'm about to start Mansfield Park, work through the 2nd half of E.H. Carr's What is History?, possibly read some history on England in the 17th-19th century and hopefully get some of the Knightfall Saga read this summer.

[hr]

I hold an element of surprise

I'm reading the highly mature Roman Mysteries series by Caroline Lawrence - mysteries set in ancient Rome solved by 4 children - their average reader's age is 11 ... BUT THEY ARE SO GOOD! I'm on the last one now, The Sirens of Surrentum. then have to wait for the next one to come out (I've been ordering them from the library.) In the meantime i've bene re-reading the Falco series by Lindsey Davis - another mystery series set in Ancient Rome but this time for adults so with lots of murder, drink, sex and scandal - like St Andrews really (apart from the murder bit.)

[hr]

The voices in my head tell me I'm not insane ... but everyone else does.

I'm finally getting to grips with Richard Russo's 'Empire Falls' after a few false starts. The prologue is a bloody nightmare - I think I'll skip the rest of it and read it at the end as I know other have done. I've been assured by a friend though that once it's gained some momentum it's a great book so I'm persevering.

"There are not very many desires in life which we can actually meet. For instance, 'I want to meet the love of my life'. Probably not today! But 'I want a cup of coffee.' That I can do!" Chris Thile (Nickel Creek)

I assassin down the avenue.

[Daniel]

Bertrand Russel's History of Western Philosophy. No, I don't need to read it. Yes, I am enjoying it. Yes, I am sad.

Chopper (Volume 1), a load of rambling crap, but some interesting insight to a madman's head!

Just finished Freakonomics though, and that was brilliant! Read it in 2 days!

[hr]

..I've got this pain down all the diodes on my left side...

[exnihilo]

All 256 pages? My.

[McK]

Gabriel Garcia Marquez's 'Nobody Writes to the Colonel', which can probably be read in one sitting. Also, sadly, Alan Barr's 'Introduction to Tax Law'.

[Phantasm]

Currently reading 1985 by Anthony Burgess, having just finished Orwell's 1984.
