The Green Mile by Steven King

Currently reading "The History of the Ancient World: From the Earliest Accounts to the Fall of Rome" by Susan Bauer. It's an interesting, fairly broad overview of ancient and pre-historical cultures, people, and nations.

[Skywalker]

Just finished 1984.

I had to read that a few months back for senior english. I read it as fast as I could so that I wouldn't get to close to any characters, a problem I sometimes have. How did you like it?

 

[Izack]

I just finished Dune by Frank Herbert for the 6.98e+27th time.
I'll probably read Mary Shelley's Frankenstein next, for the 4.12e+42th time.

 

[Kevon Daye]

Several, Actually ( I have a habit of start multiple books at once).The Bourne Identity, The War of the Worlds(for like the hundredth time) and The Road.

 

[Andy44]

I just finished Darkly Dreaming Dexter, about a serial killer who has trained himself to satisfy his urges by targeting other serial killers. He works as a forensice specialist for the Miami police department. Creepy, and witty, but not my favorite.

 

[Star Voyager]

I just started A River Runs Through It by Norman MacLean. I've seen some of the movie, but I want to see how the book measures up. Besides, I think I'll like this one because it talks about fly fishing in Montana (I'm an outdoors kind of guy :thumbup.

OFMM people will be pleased to know that I finally got around to picking up when I dropped by the bookstore the other day.

Also, it's not really related, but look at what a friend found for me on a trip to the flea market!! :woohoo:

The Prince, Niccolò Machiavelli (1513)

 

[Shadow Addict]

I just finished all of Cerebus, an epic length (6000 page) graphic novel by Dave Sim.. I'm rereading Gravity's Rainbow by Thomas Pynchon, my favorite book. Also last night, while messing around with APT, I discovered a command line King James bible, so I've been reading that in lieu of an actual bible.

 

[Graham2001]

'Misfire', 1980's techno-thriller by Jonathan Evans that seems to have been inspired by the OTRAG affair.

I'm presently reading three books:

1) "Back to the Moon" by Homer Hickam (Fiction) - Interesting work involving a hijacked shuttle flight to the moon.
2) "The Demon In The Freezer" by Richard Preston (Non-Fiction) - Terrifying book about SmallPox and it's potential as a bioterror weapon.
3) "America Alone" by Mark Steyn (Non-Fiction) - A truly frightening look at demographics.
