Brethren, by Robyn Young. I guess she's a fairly new writer, but she's okay. She uses too many flashbacks for my taste (and she likes to jump ahead in time only to use yet another flashback to tell what just happened), and sometimes her characters aren't as realistic (I have to say, I think an 18-year-old would be a little more pissed off when his father is treacherously killed), but for the most part it's a good book.

I'm going to start the LOTR trilogy...again...because I have a school project due on them.

Shatterpoint - By Matthew Stover

It's been a while since I had a Star Wars novel I really enjoyed reading. You know, the kind of book where you have to talk yourself OUT of finishing chapters? (normally because it's four o'clock in the morning...) So yeah, I'm enjoying that.

Tangled Webs - By Anne Bishop

I completely love the Black Jewels Series, but Tangled Webs is just leaving me high and dry. It's just not epic enough for my tastes, it doesn't fit very well with the rest of the series. I love Surreal, but I really think we should have a story following Jaenelle.

Queen of the Slayers - By Nancy Holder

This is my current "fluff" book, but I'm on a bit of a Buffy high right now, so it's okay. Light, easy, fun book. It'll also help me work on the Buffyverse wiki - they are really lacking EU stuff over there.

The Princess Bride - By William Goldman

Fun so far. I'm not rushing through this. I'm just reading it for when I feel like a change. As a devout follower of the movie, it's actually kind of nice to have all the character images and voice already in my head. (for once. Stupid Harry Potter movies, ruining Mr. Weasley...) It's not the highest quality I've ever read, but it does its job as a fairy tale quite well.

There's also a number of books that I've technically STARTED, but am taking a long (sometimes very long) time to finish.

City of Pearl

The Lord of the Rings

Spawn of the Winds

Sins of the Father

The Magician’s Nephew

Diamonds Are Forever

Tomorrow I'll be starting Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Omnibus Volume 4, and on Tuesday I'll get my hands on Legacy of the Force: Invincible.

Really looking foward to that last one.

Robin McKinley= Beauty: A Retelling of Beauty and the Beast

Natalie Babbitt= Tuck Everlasting

I am reading the On the Run series bye Gordon Korman

I am currently reading The Stowaway Solution

I recommend Gordon Korman. He is a great author.
