"The Subtle Knife" by Phillip Pullman. Really interesting so far.

To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. I'm only on chapter five or something because I have to go slow and summarize every chapter for school, but so far it's really good!

Heretics of Dune by Frank Herbert. Honestly, there are parts in it when I'm just like, "Blah, blah, blah... get over yourself already." But the action's good.

I'm reading this book called Elizabeth I by Rosalind Miles. It's fascinating, and I don't say that lightly about any book. It's been a while since I've read any historical fiction, but I'm glad I picked this book up. I've learned a lot about "The Virgin Queen"

The Famished Road - Ben Okri
And lovely it is too. I'm an avid reader, so I'm used to different ideas in books, but this is sewed so perfectly at the seams that it fits flawlessly.
Beautiful writing style, and an idea that just sticks with you, and leaves you feeling inspired every time you put the book down...
Well worth a read..

Grr, I'm not really reading any interesting books at the moment, cause all I'm doing is reading stuff for my Latin exam! *fumes* But I supposed Roman and Greek mythology are ok - if you're not reading them all the time!

Reading "The Other Boleyn Girl" by Philippa Gregory. Almost done with it - it's pretty good! However, if Ms. Gregory tells me that a character said something "simply" or "bluntly" or "frankly" one more time, I'm going to bang my head against the wall.
