    I'm currently between books. . . although I'm still half-way through The Final Crumpet. I think I'll read the Dragon Keeper Chronicles next.

    I'm reading a new version I just got of "Arabian Nights", I don't like this version very much. It's too. . . .prejudiced is the word maybe?

    I just finished "Till We Have Faces" last night! That book was really cool!

    I'm reading "To Kill a Mockingbird" for school, and "Humorous Stories and Sketches" by Mark Twain for pleasure. (Not that I don't enjoy reading for school too.) I started "Pride and Prejudice" a while ago, but I haven't gotten around to finishing it. Hopefully later today I will start Beyond the Summerland again so I can finish re-reading the series before the last book comes out on June 1. Oh, and I may re-read Prince Caspian whatever day my family goes to see the movie, even though I read it two weeks ago. Wow, I didn't realize how much reading I'm doing or planning to do in the next few days.

    I'm reading The Horse and His Boy to my brothers, Lord of the Flies for school (thank goodness I've already read it, I have five days to do the entire novel study!) and The Red Necklace by Sally Gardner in between everything else. After two months with Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell all of those books feel so light, when I pick one up I wonder where the other half is.

    *giggles at Alyosha* I think the last book any of my siblings read to me was Robinson Crusoe. I liked that one.[/off-topic]

    Reading now:
    Thirteen Detectives by G. K. Chesterton (not much for detectives stories personally, but it ain't too bad)

    ...atleast, that's what I'm actively reading, I've got 7-8 others that I haven't been attending to very well lately.

    I skim-read some of The Rise of the Wyrm Lord last night. (You know, the sort of reading you do when you pick up a book you like and leaf through it looking for something, then you come across a part you like and start reading.) Anyway, I'm planning to read through The Door Within Trilogy sometime in the next month.

    I finished The Final Crumpet.

    I did exactly the same thing with Dragonfire last night. I started The Scarlet Pimpernel. For some very odd reason, I'm not in the mood for Binding of the Blade, so I'm just going to read Father of Dragons before All My Holy Mountain comes out.

    You're kidding! I'm re-reading the Scarlet Pimpernel right now! How far in are you?

    I just finished. I spent a wonderful afternoon sitting next to an open window, feeling the pleasant breeze while I read. It was a very good book. Now I'm going to start A Tale of Two Cities, since I've never read any Dickens and it's also set in the French Revolution.

    Today I'll either finish reading The Chronicles of Narnia or else I shall work hard to finish The Politically Incorrect Guide to Science.

    It'll probably be the former as the later is very dull.
