Finally finished Let the right one in [rather bittersweet ending, hmm], and I have before me a generic-looking crime/thriller/murder-mystery novel |D 
 
Published a in 2003, so not that new, but I only got it a couple of days ago. It's The Double Eagle by James Twining. No idea if it'll be any good or not, so hurrah. Living on the edge am I.

I recently finished reading a book called "No Time For Goodbyes", I can't remeber whoit's by but it's about a girl who wakes up one morning and her family are gone, she's tries to trace them again years later, it has lots of good plot twists <3 I read it in one night, wanted to finish it x3

James Twinning is a great writer. His three books are great. Tom kirk is a great charachter who you can really get behind and root for.
I hope you enjoy this.

I've just recently gotten into the Shadow King series. It's a little bit of a step down from what I usually read, but I really like it. Very dramatic... o;

Finished Wolf Brother on Monday which I really enjoyed. I'd like to read the rest, going to get the next two from Kay when I can. Also picked up my Darren Shan books that I've been neglecting for a long time. Let them pile up so I had a backlog of three. Whoops. However, I finished Demon Apocalypse on the same day as Wolf Brother and finished Death's Shadow earlier today in my free at school. Have Wolf Island to read, which I will at some point this week. Glad I've caught up with Grubbs, Kernel and Bec <3

Seems that Doomsday's come early this year.

I'm currently reading LOTR: The Fellowship of the Ring. It's been a while since I read it, so I thought I'd read it again.

In English I've been reading various poems from Seamus (not Lit) Hanley (I think that's his last name, or it's Heaney is something) which has been boring, but they aren't that bad. Digging is quite an interesting one, as is the one about his dead brother.

^ Heaney! I loved studying him <3

He does such morbid things with potatoes xD

Prefer Clarke though, I presume you're studying her too?

I swear he has a potato fetish... :P

And Clarke as in Gillian Clarke? Not yet, but we should be doing her after Heaney, although this sounds very rude.
Maybe we will learn about her soon though, and we can compare and contrast our views about her? I'll probably hate her because she isn't doing anything with potatoes...

I loved her poetry. <3
I thought it was rather amazing. ^^
I can't believe it was 2 years ago that I studied that. xD

I'm rereading my manga, and I'm hoping to move further with Naruto soon... but other than that, I'm reading The Problems of Philosophy by Bertrand Russell for my Set Text exam unit for Philosophy. Also, should be reading Twilight soon since Cora is forcing the book upon me.

I'm reading The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time right now. By Mark Haddon.
A great book indeed. This is probably the... seventeenth time I read it. *nods*

Just finished Catch 22. I enjoyed the ending, it gave me a big grin, at the glimer of hope it left the main character with ^-^ And for once, the characters I really cared about didn't die at the end!


Thank's to Blake... for the awesome sig!
