I read Down Under by Bill Bryson while I was in Australia. _________________ >>Be the change you wish to see in the world<<

Just started Crime & Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky.
I've been wanting to read it for ages but it's not exactly a book you pick up for pleasure reading... Now I've teamed up with a friend who studies Russian and we've made our own small book club to support each other. We've planned to read the first two chapters before Sunday... Wish me luck. _________________ >>Be the change you wish to see in the world<<

(So far, Dead Beat is my favourite.)
Because my main library is such crap, I've had an impossible time trying to read everything in order. I've finally found a couple small libraries that have far better selections, which makes no sense to me.  So I've read "Summer Knight" and "White Night" and the first Dresden book I ever read was "Dead Beat," and I agree with you; it's my FAVOURITE. I laughed so much and so ridiculously hard through it - OH my god.  I can't wait to get all caught up, I love this series way too much for my own good.
"Emma" by Jane Austen. So I tried reading it weeks ago - but the introduction was like reading a text book (and since at the time I was determined to read the intro) and I couldn't finish it. But now I've just said, screw the intro and am well into it. *squeeeeeeeee* _________________ "So what? So plenty!"

Just finished Along Came a Spider and am waiting for the library to get in Kiss the Girls. In the meanwhile I'm reading Goddess of Spring by P.C. Cast

I cheated and my I list before I started. Though I still read book nine before book eight. Yeah, "Dead Beat" was really funny. I liked the chase scene on the streets of Chicago after they visit the Field Museum. With Sue the T-Rex._________________

OH my god. The chase scene was probably one of the greatest things I've ever read. I will never forget when I first read it - I was in tears I was laughing so hard. It just conjured up this image that I will never be able to forget. One that every time I read a book in the Dresden Files, I will remember. 
I just finished reading "Emma."
Can I just say that I think Mr. Knightley is the ONLY sane person in the entire novel??? He's so ridiculously brilliant - I love it. *SQUEEE* _________________ "So what? So plenty!"
