    What are you reading?

    Kind of like the what are you listening to thread, but about books!
    I don't know about you but I'm always looking for new book suggestions so....

    What are you reading? Are you enjoying it? Should we read it too?

    I'm usually reading two books at once - one fiction one nonfiction.

    So currently I'm reading Under the Dome by Stephen King and Surpassing the Love of Men by Lillian Faderman.

    Under the Dome is really interesting so far. I love the ideas that King comes up with. Stephen King used to be a really guilty pleasure read of mine but I'm over my fake haughtiness of reading. He's gross and crass but really a great horror writer.

    Surpassing the Love of Men is a book about the history of the romantic friendship between women... It's really fascinating.

    At the moment the only books I'm actively reading (aside from a few unfinished zombie novels) is the Sookie Stackhouse series. I read all the books and just waiting on the new one to show up in May.

    I may be full of myself but is this a reference to me? If it is, I'm sorry I swear I will get back on it. I just need some free/alone time.

    Back on topic, some formulas for special relativity in terms of time... Nothing major. But for fun, I'm reading the Lord Of The Rings series again. Probably go through the Forgotten Realms books I have, again.

    Not at all. I was refering to stories like World War Z, The Zombies of Lake Woebegotten, and Morning Star Strain. I think those are names. I made the mistake of reading J.L. Bourne first and now nothing is good enough. I'll get back to them eventually.

    Very true..after J L Bourne it is very hard to find anything as good.
    I tend to go with audiobooks..the Day to Day series is awesome.have you heard any good ones?

    A friend loaned me Day by Day. And Bourne's facebook page actually lead me to We're Alive. The book was brilliant and I'm eternally grateful for being lead here.

    I am currently reading John Greens the Fault in Our Stars, as well as Kurt Vonnegut's Slaughter house five. Now I have read slaughter house five before a few times and I strongly recommend it if you haven't yet read it. As for the fault in our stars I've only read a few chapters thus far. But what I have read I like it. I would also recommend the author John Green I love all of his books; Looking for Alaska, an Abundance of Katherine, and Paper Towns.
