'Paragorn Lost' by Dave Duncan.

I think I've read the novel at least 20 times. My hardcover copy is starting to wear out.

I was reading 'The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy' series, but then I got to talking to this guy in my class a few days ago and he was telling me about a book he read a few years back. He described it so well and it got me so into it that I had to check it out for myself. So, today, I just started reading the book he got me interested in, 'The Body of Christopher Creed.' I'm already over halfway done. I should finish it by tomorrow. ^-^

I got bored and read 'The Da Vinci Code' in like 3 hours. It was great for the first half with all its facts, then crpa in the second as the plot deteriorated a bit and the facts went a little wonky.

I'm reading
Muhammed Ali- his life and times

Good book, even if it is mostly quotes. Fantastic boxer, and always an interesting read.

Heh, go me, I bought two books yesterday, finished them both. What a waste of money.

Anyway, Noughts & Crosses, which was excellent. Now I wanna go buy more books...but I doubt I'd be able to find more that were as good as those last two I read...

Henry V
Mein Kampf Vol. 1
Thus Spake Zarathrusta

Sparkling Cyanide by Agatha Christie.

I have to read books and take tests on them and get "points" and then I'm required to have a certain amount of points..it's to force kids to read and unfortunately it's a horrible program because you can only read certain books so the kids end up reaidng books they hate and the avid readers can't read books that aren't worth points or they get in trouble *sigh*

*points up* most of her books are worth points, and a nice amount too, so I read them, even if I don't particularly enjoy them.
