I am reading through a few titles right now in spurts, mainly Kurt Vonnegut since I love his books, and since he died I've been meaning to catch up on some stuff I've missed.

My reading table right now consists of:

Bluebeard
Timequake
The Sirens of Titan
Cat's Cradle (rereading)

Non Vonnegut I'm reading:

Cosmos And Community: The Ethical Dimension Of Daoism
China's Cultural Heritage: The Qing Dynasty, 1644-1912
Faith, Myth and Reason in Han China

I may start reading up on the Suikoden source material book, Water Margin, and Romance of the Three Kindgoms. Whichever comes first.

I might after I finish CODE. The Robert Asprin MYTH collections will take a while, both volumes equal around 2000 pages combined or so, and im in the middle of my .hack marathon mission.

I'm still chipping on Against the Day, but I think I'm just going to have to restart it.

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #9 on:** May 09, 2007, 05:15:21 PM »

Yeah I had to cut down to two books at a time because with everything else that goes in a week I end up just forgetting large chunks.

Now that college is almost done, time to get to reading:

Most of my reading is pulp fiction.. nothing too spectacular.

Currently, I'm reading Cell by Stephen King, and I got a lot of his books I haven't read yet. I still haven't cracked Misery, and it's been several years since I read It (haven't read It since like seventh grade) so I will probably reread that as well.

Then, I will take two or three days to reread Harry Potter before the seventh book and then take suggestions from you guys.

Oh yeah, I will probably read The Children of Men by P.D. James since the movie kicked my ass. I've flipped through it, and yeah, definitely not too true to the movie.

Funny, for turn of the century stuff. Cynics never change, gods bless us.
