Shush I'm a busy girl, I have to multitask anymore to get things done, and reading isn't one of those things, so audio tapes it is
 
I'm still not through with James, the Brother of Jesus by R. Eisenman and with J.Friel/G.Byrns Going Long.

Next in the queue are W. Morris' The House of the Wolfings and The Roots of the Mountains, two books (in one volume) that are said to have inspired J.R.R. Tolkien.

Also in the queue are D. Schomers Espresso Coffee: Professional Techniques (the "Bible" for the Wannabe-Barista) and A. Camillieri's La Paura di Montalbano (in German, though, not the Italian original) .

Still on the shelf and only in part read: the 2 volumes of "Ancient Europe - Encyclopedia of the Barbarian World".
 
Let's see, since my last post I've finished reading The Ragamuffin Gospel, re-reading The Forgotten Beasts of Eld, re-read Sunshine by Robin McKinley, volumes 1, 2, 3, 12, 20, & 22 of the Lone Wolf and Cub manga, volume 13 of Rurouni Kenshin, Going Postal, the latest Discworld novel by Terry Pratchett, and I'm still working my way through Neil Gaiman's short stories in Smoke & Mirrors.
 
I've just started reading a bunch of books at once. Book 2 of The Chronicles of Narnia Prince Caspian, The fifth Harry Potter book, and the Da Vinci Code.
 
i just finished one child by Torey Hayden. very good book.
 
I just picked up "Moby ****." (ya, thought that would happen) It's quite the beast (no pun intended ), but it seems interesting so far. Mind you, I just finished the first chapter, but 'twas an interesting first chapter. Plus, it'll look impressive on the bookshelf!
 
Ann Rule True Crimes Volumes...they are some good action-packed stories.
 
im just re-reading misery, but it just dosent have the same suspense as the first time you read it

I saw Brennan Manning speak a few years back
Quality bloke.
 
I recently finnished "Pillars of the Earth" by Ken Follett, a saga about making a medevial cathedral. Its very good but there were a few tiny historical inaccuracies that i picked out.

I really want to get my hands on Geoffrey of Monmouths History of Engand and also the new Artemis Fowl book ( i cant believe the new ones out im sooo excited!!)
 
I'm in the midst of reading Chuck Pahlnuik's (sp??) Invisible monster...its weird.
