I'm reading Centaur Isle by Piers Anthony on my Kindle and The War of the Flowers by Tad Williams in book format...and that second novel is really hard to get into, but once you get in...well, it's a fantastic book.

Ian Flemming's Casino Royale, Pires Anthony's Castle Roogna, Dan Brown Da Vinci Code, Kathy Reich's Grave Secrets, Star Wars Death Star, Star Wars Dark Apprentice, Star Wars Betrayal,A.J Jacobs The Know It All and the Cambridge guide to modern Japanese culture. Around the middle in all of them should just take one finish it and move on, but it always depends on what I am in the mood for.

I've just bought the complete works of Saint-John Perse. Now I have another poetry book to finish, next to Nazim Hikmet, Louis Aragon, Robert Frost and Virgil.

I shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a bookshop really !

I am reading the same book I read every year around this time:

Ramona and her Father by Beverly Cleary.

And a random assortment of other things. I read too fast and have a 2 hour a day commute, so it's pointless to even mention it.

I finished Virgil's Aeneid a while back. I have the same problem with bookstores but the Kindle overthrew most of the bookstores around here so my mom's credit card for the Kindle kindo blocks me ;)

How is this series? i have never found 2 agreeing reviews, and it has been picking my interest for some time.

It really depends on your reading abilities, skills, and interests. You probably have assumed its a fantasy world, correct? But the problem I have with most people is telling them it's not magical like Harry Potter or LotR. There are some made up stuff like some alchemy and different fantasized creatures, but it's more possibility than fiction. Another thing is that the plot is intrigue. I wouldn't really give this to anyone above 8th grade unless they were really good at reading. #1 theres literary signs #2 the ideas aren't always right in your face sometimes you have to think about them.

Plus theres some adult content in it.

But overall I enjoy the series
