Well, currently looking for book 9(?) from the Skulduggery Pleasant series, which I absolutely adore, by the way.

* Arcvasti high fives.

I am so far behind on that series. Haven't been able to find anything past book ~6 in libraries.

High-five! Yeah, I can't find Book 9 anywhere in my area. And that's terrible, because it's a genuinely god series.

The Alchemist? By Paulo Coelho(spl?)?
That's a fascinating book, even if it made my head hurt. I think I was a kid when I tried to read it, though...

Erm, no, sorry.
Looked it up on Wikipedia, and the one I'm reading is definitely a different book.
On a related note, on the 'to-read' list you go.

Finished Alloy of Law, just started reading the Let The Old Dreams Die anthology by John Ajvide Lindqvist, aka the guy who wrote Let The Right One In.  I really liked that book and maybe liked Little Star.  Idk, Little Star was really weird and I couldn't stop reading it, but there are certain parts I kind of have to mentally gloss over.  His other books that I've read are just ok, but I do like his particular brand of horror, even if it makes me squeamish at times.

Just finished Eye of the World.

On to The Great Hunt.

Brace yourself. The books only get thicker from here on out.

I know, I'm re-reading them for fun.

[BlitzDungeoneer]

Started reading the Epic of Gilgamesh.
Also finishing off the Demonata, reading the only book from the series that I haven't read, and reading book 2 of W.A.R.P.
There's also some 40-60 books I own that I have to start reading.
Halp im drowning in books

Reading Charlie and the Chocolate Factory to my daughter. Haven't read it since a kid, the writing holds up quite well.

Ah, Roald Dahl... Yeah, his writing is really good. I particularly enjoyed his biography, Boy: Tales of Childhood. I think that's what it's called, anyway.

[Arx]

Ah, Roald Dahling... Yeah, his writing is really god.

Welp. There are at least two things wrong here.

Anyway, I'm currently reading Way of Kings. It's good. I can see the influence Sanderson's had on my own writing, which is weird.

Ah...only noticed my typo now.
I noticed my other typo too. Fixing.

Too late! You are forever preseved in the OOCFQ thread.

Sorry.

[BlitzDungeoneer]

My god.
I have been OOCQed?
I always dreamt of this moment... Now I can die in peace.

The Things a Brother Knows by Dane Reinhardt. I'm probably about to stop reading because the writing style lacks personality, most of the side characters are straight up stereotypes, and the main character is a punk (not even the cool kind).

I'm also reading the Weed That Strings the Hangman's Bag a Flavia de Luce novel by Alan Bradley. It's the second book in a series about a 11 year old girl in the 1950's who is really into chemistry and uses it to solve murders. It's actually really good.

[Tawa]

Oh, yeah. I just remembered that I checked War and Peace out of the library day before last.

Hoo boy, this will be some heck of a read.
