Awww...heat waves suck. We have one going on where I live currently. :c
I hope yours doesn't last long!

In other news, I finished the book I just started the other day.
Hopefully can finish one other in the next few days, although I have work and a couple of craft projects I need to haul ass on too.

So busy.

@Trystan I think I understand what you said. But seriously, that movie was odd and boring, but then I have mixed feelings about Dune the book. I might try the miniseries at some point.

I am reading Bangkok Haunts, #3 in a series. I love those books. They are well written and quite interesting. The detective, Sonchai, is from Thailand, and is a Buddhist and...co-owns a brothel with his mother. Yup! its different.

@Kad: that owl!!! so beautiful, what is the name of that item?

well, i'm glad someone understood some of that!

the book is hard to get through - Frank Herbert has a very compact style of writing.

@Trystan: I thought I would try Dune but I don't think I will now. I'm tired of reading hard things.

@Kad It is very beautiful.

I can offer some comments on Dune once I'm done, if you like. It's on my list. I shall suffer it!

I read a little more of Memories of Ice while at the dentist today. So close!

And I walked into a bookstore. Only came outwith a magazine though! A copy of Rue Morgue about Women in horror. I'm kind of tempted to subscribe if I can. I picked up their last issue on Shark movies, too.

So many video game books I want to read!

I've been reading more than usual this year... I'd like to set a target of 15 I think... I've not really been keeping a tally of when I read them or anything fancy like that but yeah... ^_^;;

Books I've read so far this year :



These are all the ones I remember reading as most of them have been in the last few months... I have a stack that I'm slowly working my way through beside my bed plus I have another few books on pre-order... I just hope work doesn't get too busy so that I end up with no time to read again ^_^;;

I've been largely absent, just so tired at night I have been sleeping.

I just bought a copy of 1984 and Animal Farm by George Orwell.
Classics I should read again.

i have both Animal Farm and 1984. i want to reread 1984, so i'll just add that on my reread pile, along with the rest of the Incarnations of Immortality series (i'm in the middle of book 3 of 8 (although i'm only reading the original 7)); Harry Potter; the Hobbit & Lord of the Rings; and the Olympos Cycle (two-book series).

i have a number of books on my to-read list that i want to read, including Navigators of Dune, and two Supernatural novels... maybe i'll read those when i'm done my new, current book - small great things, by Jodi Picoult~

this is book #33 for me! *woot*

I'm going to be starting on a new book tonight (#9) and I've had one of my pre-orders arrive so I'm sorted for a little while... Then I'll have to delve into my bookshelf and find out which ones I haven't got around to reading yet ^_^

@Awen I have so many books at home that I have not read, close to 200 I think. I always say I'm not going to buy any more, but yet, I get attracted to a subject then I buy another book!

Right now I am reading a police procedural series, I have two left, and also reading Destiny of Souls.

I need to update my reading list, I'm going to do it now!

Almost done my two books! I appear to be in the last chapter of Memories of Ice but it's a really long chapter. Pretty darn epic though.

I'm going to start reading Nostalgia once I'm finished one of these as I think the book might help give me some ideas for some "memory" themed writing I would like to do.

Death by Video Game continues to be an awesome book, and I'm having a hard time not buying other books that look into the industry and such as well. My brother has a copy of All Your Base Are Belong to Us that I intend to snag.
