What are you reading right now?

^ Ooooh, similarly

I've been reading this series for the best part of 18 months I reckon. I get through one book quick, but then rush into the next one and in reality I need a break from them for a bit, so I stop reading altogether and then come back to it, blitz through a whole book and rush into the next one and so on and so on.

I'm not even bothering to get the new one until it comes in the paperback so it matches up with the others on my shelf.

Just picked this up on a whim. Looking forward to reading it tonight.

For book club.

Found some guy on the side of the highway selling every SK book possible, hardcover of Needful Things, and soft cover of Cujo for a grand total of 5 bucks.

The Jungle- Upton Sinclair

Come To Me- Amy Bloom

Reading The Jungle for school, and Come To Me was recommended to me when I mentioned I was interested in short stories.

I've been meaning to get this for awhile now. Different states of consciousness seem to fascinated me...

Winter's Bone by Daniel Woodrell
Just finished this. I've read several books by this guy and I'd definitely say he's one of my favorite authors. This book didn't disappoint. Like all his books it's harsh and gritty and dark, though I'd say it actually has a few more positive parts to it than anything else I've read by him. Great stuff. Now I'm looking forward to checking out the movie.

Right now, I'm reading In Cold Blood by Truman Capote, for the AS level in English I'll soon be starting. Even though I didn't pick it, it's an enjoyable and very personal book that basically looks into the psyches of two criminals.

I just watched this movie over the past weekend and had no idea it was a King novel. I may need to find a copy so I can read it

The Blind Assassin- Margaret Atwood

Partly for mb book club, partly because it looks really good.
