House of the Dead - Dostoyevsky

 

[Shonty 7]

I'm reading Brian Aldiss' "Non-Stop". I'm a big Sci Fi fan and have started reading some of the Grandmasters works.

[Scavenger Crow 91]

Currently re-reading the Harry Potter books

[PlzDelete 2,456]

My mother and I are currently re-reading a book called "Penpal". Its a super creepy mystery story! 

[Tropical Melody 6,031]

Currently got four on the go - Discworld book #12, Witches Abroad, 1991 - wasn't sure at first but shaping up to be interesting.

The remainder are SF: Destiny Doll, Clifford Simak, 1972 - "a small expedition to an anonymous planet which welcomes them with a homing beam then snaps shut around them like a Venus fly-trap - their ship is sealed and they are cast thru a quirk of space/time into a wholly inhospitable desert from which there seems no escape."

Down To Earth (1) [I have another, different, book, same title], Louis Charbonneau, 1967 - "a family of four alone on a tiny planetoid" - (it's a way-station for spaceships) - "one day first insignificantly then ever more unmistakably, the elaborate machinery begins to show flaws ... what at first seems like inexplicable accidents begins to reveal itself in all its grotesque, horrifying truth..."

Planet Of The Dreamers, John MacDonald, 1951 - "The Dreamers, an ancient race living in a vast tower on a dying planet ... thru their dreams they have found a way to contact Earth, but believe Earth's inhabitants are only the stuff of which their endless reveries are made, 'dream creatures' to be toyed with ruthlessly and whose plans for space travel must be destroyed."

I'm currently slowly going through the second omnibus of the Space Wolves. It's a story about a new Space Marine and his journey to becoming a Wolf Lord. Great price for three stories  

[Theknightofdraconia 31]

Currently reading Philip K Dick's The Man In The High Castle.

[MARSOC 100]

The Witcher: By Andrew Stokowski 

[Lulaypp 2,555]

At the moment, I am going through the Warriors series. I finished the main books, just going through the sides and waiting to get the next book of Vision of Shadows. 

Other than that, I am also waiting until I am able to find the last book of Lorien Legacies, United As One. 

If non-fiction counts, I am reading this oldish book called Lesser World. It is about insects and I find it really cool! I suppose I will recomend it for those who like insects.

As for comics, I was reading the few early Robin (the third one) comics. I somehow stopped for reasons I myself is unsure of.

[SparklingSquirrels 21,331]

I wish I had the time/energy to read for fun  

I'm reading "Catch-22" for school. I feel like it tries to be funnier than it actually is 

Also gotta read Beowulf. The original fantasy book  

[King of Canterlot 9,603]

I just finished the fourth book in the series The keys to the kingdom, by Garth Nix. The fourth book was called Sir Thursday and I'm planning on reading the next book Lady Friday as soon I can get to the library. 

[Steve Piranha 29,417]

Finished Warrior Princess of Pennyroyal Academy, and I began the third Ponyville Mysteries.... Or better known as the one with Scootie's lesbian aunts

 

[Gernia 691]

Reading The Circle by Dave Eggers. Haven't seen the movie based on this, but I'd like to.

[Caligula 87]

"The fourth crusade and the sack of Constantinopole", written by Jonathan Philips. Next in a queue waits "The Latin kingdom of Jerusalem: European Colonialism in the Middle Ages" by Joshua Prawer.

[Oleks 1,993]

I'm currently reading Black House by S. King and P. Straub. It's an interesting novel, and it's directly connected to Dark Tower, which makes it even more exciting.

Also, I started listening to Astrophysics for People in a Hurry (audiobook) by N. D. Tyson. Quite interesting too.

[Messy Mane 9,032]

Right now,i'm busy reading "IT" by Stephen King.

[Eraser Pon3 2]

Right now, I'm reading Clockwork Angel. It's really well written and very suspenseful.

AHHH!!! Such a good series/universe!! Love Jem <3 and Will <3 I've also been reading her newer works which I'd totally recommend!

"The Latin kingdom of Jerusalem: European Colonialism in the Middle Ages" by Joshua Prawer turns out to be very good history book. It covers broad spectrum of aspects connected with Kingdom of Jerusalem - from their administration to the situation of local population. Next in queue - either "History of central-asian nations" by Bobojon Ghafurov (though it would be nice if he wouldn't write at least twice at every page about eternal rightness of marxism-leninism and its imminent triumph) or "SPQR: A History of Ancient Rome" by Mary Winifred Beard.
