I've been dabbling in The Tao of Pooh by Benjamin Hoff once again. I stopped reading it, but now I'm rereading it.
I'm also reading Anatomy of a Murder by Robert Traver. So far, it's pretty interesting.

Just finished reading the first volume of Bokurano Ours. It wasn't bad, but it was really predictable. I pretty much figured out how the whole series was going to go halfway through, with a few exceptions.
I've stopped reading it around chapter 35, but have been meaning to start it again. But I did enjoy it nonetheless, just... Stopped for some reason. Most of the manga I'm reading are still ongoing, and waiting for them to update. But probably going to start up Ranma 1/2 again. Damn this habit of stalling manga series for no reason. |

Star Wars Fate of the Jedi: Backlash, with a little DnD thrown in to make things interesting.

I just finished reading Frankenstein. I dunno why I never read it before, but I thought it was a pretty awesome book.

Today I found Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter for nearly half price at BJ's Warehouse. It's written by the same guy responsible for Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, so I'm excited  |

I've just finished horns by Joe Hill.
I could spend a day describing how I felt after finishing it....
I won't do that because that would be boring.
In short:
It's the best book I've read in three years and honestly: I've felt sad for two days now, because I finished it and can't stop thinking about it.
It's a masterpiece.

A nice little pile of Rurouni Kenshin and manga by Naoki Urasawa.
And The Burning Land, which unsurprisingly, is amazing.

"The Writers & Artists Yearbook 2010." Because, Gruad dammit, I AM going to get SOMETHING I've written published eventually! It's been 13 years and counting but the relentless grind of *having* to write in the same way as I *have* to sneeze has meant me developing my own style. If no one wants my steampunk-Lovecraft fusion "Covenant" I'll just dust off one of my other manuscripts for restructuring. Beloved has been pestering me to rework "Seventh Gate" and put the scene with the Demon of Prophecy getting a pizza delivered with the aid of rubber washing up gloves bang slap at the start...

Caught up with Toradora! and reading Pluto by Naoki Urasawa.
And Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief, which is pretty good. Had my doubts but this children's book has my attention.
Going to try The Glass Bead Game after I finish The Lightning Thief, I remember Opus Fluke mentioning it a while ago.
