kudos to you  have you read Forgotten Realms as well? if you haven't, they're both affiliated with DnD, usually side by side on the shelf.
currently reading Forgotten Realms: Sellswords Book II: Promise of the Witch-King. the protagonist pair are simply classic and to die for... _________________

You've taken the words straight out of my mouth, both of you! I like how you described his writing style, eowyn of ithilien. I had to read Great Expectations over the summer and ending up highly disliking it, but I've heard his other stuff is good.
Anyway...I've just started Obsessed by Ted Dekker today. It's quite good so far. _________________

Antigone
So far it's not quite as boring as the Odyssey was... and it's shorter. *Cheers*

Currently reading "Världens Dåligaste Språk" (The Worst Language in the World) by Fredrik Lindström. A very entertaining and educating book on the Swedish language and Swedish mentality! I love reading this kind of stuff _________________

Still That Hideous Strength. For school I'm reading Hippolytus, and my dad's reading The Bronze Ladder and another book aloud.

^'tis one of my favorite Greek tragedies. Antigone is frighteningly brave!

Well, I read Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith on Friday, and then I decided I should probably read through the Dreamweaver guide that I have to be a good ways into by Wednesday (it's really big. And boring. And I have to read it for my HTML class).
And I'm still working through A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens. And I don't like it any more than I did the last time I said that.

Curently I'm about a third of the way through Babbitt by Sinclair Lewis because I have to read it for school.  Not even for English. We're reading an entirely different book for English.
Actually, it's not that bad. I just wish they'd get to the point of the story.
And I wish that I could hurry up and finish it so I could read the billion other books that I want/need to read.

My sister is coming back from a short trip to the USA tommorrow, and she's bringing me a bunch more books. So then I'll be reading those plus my schoolbooks. Expect the first one to be either Halo: Ghosts of Onyx by Eric Nylund or Night Train to Rigel by Timothy Zahn. _________________
