What are you reading?
 
I was looking at the hobby thread and noticed that there are a few readers on here.So I was wondering what everyone was reading at the moment and what kind of books you like to read.

Right now I am reading "Monster" by Jonathan Kellerman.

The kind of books I enjoy are fantasy,mystery and thrillers.

So what do you like to read?:)

I am currently re-reading some of my favorite Stephen King novels and a couple of bios in the works.

No book at present (sob) but i love to read Clive Cussler and Diana Gabaldon! Next on the list is to reread the Lord of the Rings series. Last time I read them was 20 years ago.

Once school starts, I never really have the time to read for pleasure. Textbook reading consumes most of my time. :( So truthfully, the last novel I read was over the summer, when I did a reading marathon of sorts...crammed in 35 books!
I enjoy mysteries and biographies the most, and you'll always see me checking out the archaeology and mythology sections at the library.

Me, too...just finished The Black House, though. Am *very* anxious to pick up Kellerman's newest.

Peacelul 01-22-2003 02:41 PM

Just read the last Harry Potter book. I have an eye on The Black House but might read The Dark Tower books again.

At the moment I'm reading Underworld by Don DeLillo.

I eat books.

I grew up on SF, fantasy, and comics. I still love them all and read them heavily, but I have branched out considerably. Recently I started on a mystery kick. I just finished 4 mysteries by Carl Hiassen (<i>Double Whammy</i>, <i>Tourist Season</i>, <i>Basket Case </i>and <i>Lucky You</i>.) I liked them all but I noticed all have some common threads. The protagonist always is a current or former newspaper employee (1 ex-photographer, 1 ex-reporter, and 2 reporters in varying states of disgrace). At least 3 serious eye injuries (we are talking candidates for Sammy Davis Jr.-hood), and 2 very disturbing instances of animal attack that result in the injured party carrying along the animal carcass (or pieces thereof) ivoluntarily. (The dog's head scene must be read to be believed.) Highly recomended if you enjoy humorous crime fiction. I also just finished <i>Killer Stuff</i> by Sharon Fiffer about an antique hunter who stumbles upon and solves crimes. Nicely done, with a light touch. Not terrific, but the preview of the next book <i>Dead Guy's Stuff</i> makes me want to pick up when it comes out in paperback.
Currently I am half-way through <i>The Hearse You Came In On</i> by Tim Cockey. Another light mystery with an undertaker moonlighting as a sleuth. So far so good.

Next up, <The
