    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

What are you reading?

You are awesome!

I just finished STORM: The Infinity Code (I forget the author's name)

And I'm no reading the second book in the 39 clues series.
 
The Greatest Show on Earth, Richard Dawkins. It just arrived this morning, and only three days after the release date, which is quite refreshing for me.

eta: Also Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf, Edward Albee, for school. It is thoroughly enjoyable so far.

I should probably get on with Othello but eh fuck it.
Thinking of reading a D. H. Lawrence novel but I don't have much time to spare so I'll only read one right now. Has anyone read anything of his? If so, what would you recommend? Thinking of Sons and Lovers but I don't know.

Click to expand...

My dad read DH Lawrence, he always talks about Sons and Lovers. I'd say you'd start with that, I personally have zero experience reading him but most people say he's good.

Homer's The Iliad. My girlfriend got me a copy for my birthday.
 
It sounds weird to say 'Homer's The Iliad' with the 'the' in there...
 
The Dreams in the Witch House - H. P. Lovecraft

I also reread The Rats in the Walls and The Outsider recently.
 
as i lay dying, only i'm actually reading it this time.

i also have to read some of the canterbury tales for english. i should have brought the copy my teacher gave me home; my copy's translation is.. less entertaining. i'm trying to put it off, as bad an idea as that is.
 
Oh man I was so thoroughly bored by Katherine Kerr.

Anyway.

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Lewis Carroll. Because it strikes me that basing my entire knowledge of it on the Disney movie and White Rabbit is maybe not a good idea.
 
most recently read Alex and Me by Irene Pepperberg and Unseen Academicals by Terry Pratchett
