What are you reading?

I'm interested to know. What book everyone is reading right now? Want to see what people around here are into. I just got finished on reading the Repair Man Jack series again. The second one was my favorite by far. Good stuff. I recently re-read both books in the Halo series as well. I just got into the Cleric Quintet series from Forgotten Realms. I finished the first and it was so good I decided to go buy the next two today. I'm only one chapter into the second one mostly because I was dead tired at 7:00 tonight and ended up falling asleep until 12:30. Now I'll be up all night.

Currently, I'm reading up on Yoga, trying to put together a routine for myself.

But I think I'm gonna pick up Raptor Red again. I love that book.

Raptor Red's a story about a Utahraptor, just grabbing a year out of her life, as well as some short bits about other species. It's written by Robert Bakker, great story, especially for dino lovers.

Almost sounds like this CGI movie idea I have. It's called the Sabrewing Saga.

I read tons of science books.....I will read just about anything that is science related....nutrition, biology, chemistry, psychology, geology, and water quality issues. I am pretty much similar to Donny. I have also read some Chinese and Japanese literature.

I'm always reading a ton of different things.

Magic School Bus, Berenstain Bears, and Franklin.

Tangerine, Painting the Black, and Night Hoops.

A Year Down Yonder, Holes, and Someone Like You.

I definitely do a lot of reading!

I can't remember the title of the last book I read, but it was by Neil Gaiman, and it was very good. (I'll edit this later once I find the book)

Currently I'm reading "The Talisman" by Stephen King and Peter Straub, although it feels a liiiittle too strange for me

Prior, I read "Musashi" by some japanese guy I cant rememeber the name of. If you have the time, go read it (them, two books), 'cause it was friggin awesome!

I have recently finished the StarCraft series and also read Faceoff but can't remember the author. It is a pretty good book about hockey and performance enhancing drugs.
