Reading Graham Greene's "The Comedians", and after that I will be finishing up Ben Hur by Lew Wallace, which I'm only reading as a test of my own endurance.
I like Sqwirtle.

I'm not reading anything at the moment. I might try to finish one of the books that I should be reading, like the ones I started ages ago and never got around to finishing.
hahahahahahaha

Tonight I should be starting The Gum Thief by Douglas Coupland.

It looks interesting.

^ Arty Fowl <3

I'm reading Eoin Colfer too, reading Airman. I love it :D there are a lot of, er, very lucky coincidences xD and I think Conor actually had a pretty easy time in the prison.. but I'm really enjoying it so far nonetheless. Quite a different writing style to Arty Fowl, of course, but definitely still Colfer.

I'm reading a French translation of The Rubiayat of Omar Khayyam, for no reason other than to be a pretentious moron.
I like Sqwirtle.

Meh, comparing proper musical careers to the X Factor is like comparing a relationship to a date rape.

Ah, no, English translation =]

Very well translated, everything is perfectly understandable.
