What are you Reading Right Now?

[colin007]

Nope. I liked it, although it wasn't one of my favorites. It does meander- life meanders too doesn't it? - but I think the main reason I never finished it was because I dowloaded it on my phone. I'll never read a book that way again, I don't even think I'd enjoy a kindle.

I'm with you on the e-format...I much prefer paper. Life does meander...but I just didn't connect with anyone in that book...

Are you an Irving fan in general?

Probably his two best, with a nod to Garp. Have you read In One Person? Just brought it up in another thread. How about Until I Find You? Lame ending but great story.

Several books open right now.  Napoleon biography.  Another is a history of Baghdad from it's 8th Century founding through the conclusion of the US war.  Recently finished The Rush, a history of the California gold rush from 1848-1852.

I like history.

"The Name of The Wind: The Kingkiller Chronicle" by Patrick Rothfuss

My 2nd time reading the book. An A+ fantasy novel.

Hey guys, nice to see there are some readers here. Nout currently reading anything but ive read most of grishams, crichton, ludlumnl, and pattersons work. Read the wheel of time series which is prob my fav of all time.

"This Side of Paradise"-F. Scott Fitzgerald.

[JazzFatCat]

It be interested to hear what you think. I loved his first book, got bored reading his second book and never really kept up with him after that.

I liked "The Circle" but it was a bit long. If you don't trust Google/Microsoft you might get a kick out of it. I've read most of Dave Eggers' books. Zeitoun and "What is the What" are probably my favorites.

I'm halfway through "The Wolf of the Plains" now. It's pretty good.

I quit eagerly waiting a long time ago. So at least now we have time frame of when it is released.  I started watching the series first then started reading the books.  Now I have a tough time keeping the story lines and characters straight.

Back on topic, I am currently reading Inferno -- The World at War 1939-1945 - Max Hastings.

[Warren Zevon]

I have to say I'm not overly enthused about the Winds Of Winter. I think if GRRM wants the book to be written quicker, QUIT WRITING SO MUCH ABOUT THE DAMNED FOOD! I really struggled to finish the last book in the series.

1Q84 - Haruki Murakami

1Q84 - Haruki Murakami

This was a little of a slog towards the end. I enjoyed Kafka and Bird Chronicles. I think his style of storytelling started to wear on me. Summer beach reading - The Ghostwriter, Fatherland. Enjoy Harris' thrillers.

The Great Gatsby. Classic.
