Also, I've got to pick up "The Great Gatsby" and read it before the Christmas Holidays are out. However, if I can't, I'm sure reading the plot summary works just as well.

Been reading Isaac Asimov's The Gods Themselves.  Good book.
100 pages a day to finish it in three days.  Then I have to read I, Robot by Asimov.  Total should take me about 6 days to finish reading all three books.

Philip II - Geoffery Woodward.
Spain: Rise & Decline - Kilsby

Can tell I'm not reading for my coursework..

Also reading Golden Age of Spain by Henry Kamen, for a bit of light reading.

Shatter your illusions of love?
And is it over now? Do you know how
To pick up the pieces and go home?

I've just finished Watchmen and have now moved on to Sin City: Hell and Back. Both very good comics. I'd rathered read the first Sin City comic than the 7th but thats the only one I've got at minute. They don't follow on so it doesn't really matter.

Chemistry textbooks and notes >: 
 
But I'm reading my "no brainpower required" books... which is basically anything I've read before. Those old fantasy-style ones... Garth Nix, William Nicholson, Phillip Pullman, etc O: 
 
Yet to read: I've also got a book called "Sunshine" by.. someone... given to me by a friend trying to get me to like vampire books o.o 
I've agreed to read it because there's a review by Neil Gaiman on the cover saying it's good xD

Just finished - The tomb of hercules - rip roaring adventure reads like a low budget steven segal movie.

also - The judas strain - Sigma Force - good but not as good as previous sigma novels

currently on - the Gaudi key - poor Dan Brown formulatic rip off but based in Barcelona which I love.

About too start on some Lee Childs reads, and waiting for the next Matthew Reilly instalment.

I'm reading Know Your Traffic Signs, The Official DSA Theory Test and The Official DSA Guide To Driving. Fun fun fun =P

I'm also about to start reading The Night Watch by Sergei Lukyanenko, which looks pretty good. That will followed by Eclipse by Stephenie Meyer, followed by Angels & Demons by Dan Brown =] Then I still have a massive pile of books to go through and buy =P

I am also reading various text books for school.

Finished pgs 191-199. Was all about the Rennisance. Not as detailed as stuff I've had to read before, but I'm sure we'll talk about it more in class tommorrow.

Great minds think alike xD the last things I read were Amber Spyglass [Pullman], Windsinger [Nicholson] and Sabriel [Nix], and I'm well into Lirael [also Nix] now. I'd forgotten just how much I love the Old Kingdom series <3 with all its SETS 8D

-reels off the bells / bright shiners, the precints of death, the bloodlines- .. so many lists <3 makes a Kay happy!

plus they're good books x]
