^I want to read more Oscar Wilde now that I read one of his plays! 'Twas very good!
Right now I'm reading an ebook called Space Tug, by Murray Leinster.

It's an amazing story, and the story by itself is good, but the way he tells it sucks. There are a rare few good parts and tolerable parts in between the parts that make me want to sleep. You know what's funny, that sounds exactly like the way I feel about Charles Dickens' works. No offense to Dickens fans. ^Me too! I've only read one Dickens' story... and that was enough. lol!. *high fives* See, I read a kid's version of A Tale of Two Cities and loved the story...then they made me read the real thing and I already didn't like Dickens so...you can imagine how well that went over.  The Picture of Dorian Gray (by Wilde) is quite good though.
I'm reading The Book of Lost Tales Volume 2 by Tolkien. And getting pretty tired of rereading Turin and Nienor's story, unfortunately... _________________

Currently reading...
Inferno - Dante *CoughStillCough* 
Mercy - Jodi Picoult
The latter is very good but rather sad, and the former is interesting although it takes a little longer to get though... _________________

Oooh, no I've read it before.
The Return of the King
The newspaper, I'm telling myself to read it all the way through for once, usually I just read the comics or book reviews.
