[^You read a lot, Elysium. :-) How about starting your own thread where you post all the books you read and a short recommendation or description of every book? I think that would be really inspirational. :-)]


I haven't read anything for pleasure in months.. but at the moment I'm reading Interviewing Experts... about well, interviewing experts! :P

Haha, I'm always reading something :) Guess I should tell something about the book when I mention what I'm reading at least...

reading Room by Emma Donoghue
It tells about a boy and his mother who lives in a Room where they've been held captive.

It's been good but it's told from a 5 year old's point of view and it would be nice to see adult's view too. Really interesting!

edit. now reading Hush, Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick.
It's surprisingly good. I don't have good luck with YA books especially if people has been raving about it.

reading By Fire, By Water by Mitchell James Kaplan.
It's really fascinating but so sad. It's about the Spanish Inquisition in 15th century Spain.

The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde.
I haven't really gotten into it yet, I've only read a couple of chapters. And as I just got LotR in English I kinda want to read those, so I'm both not motivated to read Dorian Gray and also motivated because I want to finish it quickly. If that makes sense :P

Finished Catherine of Aragon by Garrett Mattingly. Liked it and surprisingly up-to-date for a book from 1941.

Now reading Sapphique by Catherine Fisher. Not liking it much and I don'y think it's gonna change.

edit. reading The Sixth Wife by Jean Plaidy.It's about Katherine Parr and it's been good so far.

reading Fallen by Lauren Kate
There was such a hype for this earlier and the cover is so awesome and I can't but feel disappointed about this. I hope it will change.
