The only books I'm reading right now are for class. They are pretty interesting though. Plato's Symposium and Sons of Martha, which is a compilation of engineering stories basically.

Cara, 18
Valparasio, IN USA

John Irving's "A Prayer for Owen Meany"

Felicia, 36
Lowell, MA USA

I'm reading "Prodigal Summer" by Barbara Kingsolver. It's a wonderful story about love, nature, wildlife, botany...set in the mountains of southern Appalachia. Hey Fisch - I bet you'd like this book!

Let me think: I am reading a book on those crazy Celts...I am reading a Thousand and One Nights...I am reading The Tropic of Cancer...and I am reading a science fiction book...It is by Robert Jordan (I think)...although, personally, my favorite living sci-fi guy is Terry Goodkind...all time, of course, it is Tolkien...I have read that book (the three books combined into one)...I have read that twice...I remember, I could not wait to finish reading it, so I could read it again...

I'm sort of reading Lord of the Rings, but I don't have much time for it.

I'm rereading Tuck Everlasting so I can read it to my students. It's amazing, but besides magazines, that's all I'm reading right now. I just went to Barnes & Noble and picked up two new ones though!

Tracy, 24
Ocean City, NJ USA

I'm reading textbooks for school: three cover clinical psychology and two cover social welfare policy. When I have some time and can't read another technical book, I pick up one of the James Herriot books. I pretty much read them all the time. They are my favorite books, I know the stories by heart, but I love them. And they are about the only thing my weary brain wants to absorb.

Laura, 37
Lowell, MA USA

I just finished "On A Pale Horse" by Piers Anthony.

Doug2, 29
Overland Park, KS USA

I was reading Animal Husbandry but I work too much.

Stephanie, 25
TX USA

I'm reading Marva Dawn's "I'm Lonely Lord -- How Long?" It's a collection of essays and such about the Psalms in the Bible. It's been helpful in pulling me out of a recent depression and such, and I highly recommend this book to any Christian. It's just amazingly powerful.

Hikaru, 19

Photoshop for Dummies.

Alias Irrelevante

As usual, I am reading several. They include Let Us Eat Cake: Adventures in Food and Friendship, by Sharon Boorstin; High Rising, by Angela Thirkell; Decider, by Dick Francis; The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down: A Hmong Child, Her American Doctors & the Collision of Two Cultures, by
Anne Fadiman. I recently finished and enjoyed Slow Dollar, by Margaret Maron and And Justice is There None, by Deborah Crombie.

Jane, 63
West Linn, OR USA

It is called "Shattered Mirror" and it's a vampyre novel.

Em, 16
Harrisburg, PA USA

Im trying to read "Delta of Venus" by Anais Nin but cant get that into it. I recently just started "Take a Thief" by mercedes Lackey, that should be easier reading. :)

Talia, 25

Circle of Friends by Maeve Binchly

Janet, 44

I'm reading Alas, Babylon for the second time. Good book.

Jeremy, 14

An Officer of the Court. It's a WWII mystery.

Judy, 62
Easton, KS USA

I have bookmarks in about 25 of the 50 or so books I have that I still need to read. The one I've spent the most time with is The Dinosaur Heresies by Robert Bakker, but I was reading that at work in my spare time and I haven't really had spare time at work lately.

Karen, 23
Ames, IA USA

Currently I am reading "Arrow of the Blue-Skinned God" by Jonah Blank. Blank has taught anthropology at Harvard and is currently the South Asia policy adviser for the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. In this book he retraces the Sanskrit epic "Ramayana" throughout India. It's really a very interesting book.

Diana, 22
Joplin, MO USA

I read Return of the King by Tolkien, now I'm trying to read Nickled and Dimed by Ehrenlich (sp?) and the Dhali Lama's new book. I've got a stack of about 40 more books just waiting for me.

Triana, 29

I'm reading "Fast Food Nation" by Eric Schlosser and "Mind Over Matters" by Mike Nelson.
