Ok, thanks. I won't read it so, unless a friend has it and lends it to me.

I'm currently reading Publish This Book. Hopefully I'll get through it soon to start Sense and Sensibility.

I'm really enjoying my book right now- Winter's Tale. The first chapter was told from the point of view of a horse running from Brooklyn to Manhattan. http://www.interpolnyc.com/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/happy.gif A friend, who is also reading it (book club!!) described it as part Gangs of New York, part Great Expectations, and part Love in the Time of Cholera.

Do you watch the show?

And I just started Mrs. Dalloway- Woolf. School readings are so time consuming

Just finished: the Wars- by Thomas Findley
Amazing book about a young soldier in WWI who commits an act of humanity in the midst of violence. Beautiful and simple

Most recent book I finished reading was Pink Flag by Wilson Neate. It's about the band Wire and the album and is part of the 33 1/3 series. Anyone interested in the band or album specifically should definitely read.

I love early Wire ridiculously and I have been meaning to get that for a while. I love the 33 1/3 series. I recently read Bryan Charles book on Wowee Zowee

I'm re-reading Catch-22. The first time I read it in high school I thought all the characters were just a bunch of weirdos. Then I saw the film adaptation and was informed that the book is supposed to be a comedy. :lol: Let's try that again!

I'm in the middle of a few things, but I'm most actively reading The Best of Everything by Rona Jaffe. It was a major influence on the Mad Men series, and it's a little bit of a soap opera... a tad tawdry and melodramatic and 1950s (it's set a little under a decade earlier than Mad Men). But it's enjoyable.

I bought these books at the airport because I was waiting for my flight and they are supposed to be for kids but I had fun reading them :
Diary of a wimpy kid by Jeff Kinney and from the same author Diary of a wimpy kid Rodrick rules
There are 5 of them I guess but I couldn't buy more than two to suit in my luggage!

On a dear friend's recommendation, I've started reading My Temporary Life by Martin Crosbie.
As much as I hate his mum so far I love Malcolm ^_^
