    After Seeing LOTR: ROTK I was compelled to continue reading the hobbit, which i just finished reading, moved on to the fellowship... Hopefully I can read all 3 LOTR books without losing interest... I tend to do that a lot...

    Volumes 1-7 of X/1999 all in a row. Jeez, I'm pathetic. And a couple of yaoi fics, but I won't go into detail.

    archer~not a penny more,not a penny less
    easily his best work so far.the book lacks certain intimate detail,which could have made the plot(and the luck of the main protaganists) a bit more believable.but however,this lack of detail,gives the book a rushed,exciting feel making it a much more enjoyable read.
    on a side and less serious note:w00t!800th post

    That's one of his better ones, although not his best. I enjoyed it, although the reality/fantasy mix was really annoying when it came down to it. The next two in the series are a little better, as they focus entirely on the fantasy side of it, which is good. Yeah.

    I'm currently reading: White Oleander by Janet Fitch. A friend of mine lent it to me, looks very good so far. I'm breaking my generalized rule of sticking mainly to fantasy and classic literature to read this.

    Okay. I must say this to everyone who has ever enjoyed a novel:

    READ Janet Fitch's White Oleander. It is by far the most captivating novel I have ever read; quite honestly, I could not put it down. I read it all in one sitting save for the first chapter, and that's 'cause I had to go to work. It's simply amazing... the writing style is very unique and the characters are as lovable as a teddy bear.

    The last book I read was Interesting Times by Terry Pratchett.

    It was really funny.

    At the moment I'm reading The Last Continent by Terry Pratchett.. Also, various fan fics from fanfiction.net and stuff ..

    EDIT: Changed a typo

    Well, with the LotR books, it's kinda easy to do that. I know that though I'm an avid reader, I had to take those in small chunks. Just read a bit here and there, as I did. After a time, you'll finish them.

    Ah! Are you a fan of the Dark Tower stuff? I love it myself, having found that King has tied many of his books directly to it. I've found myself reading everything of his that I can get my hands on, because of that fact. I've yet to read 'Wolves of the Calla', but I certainly plan on doing so as soon as I can get my hands on a copy.

    I just finished reading 'Prozac Nation' by Elizabeth Wurtzel. It's her memoirs of depression and drug abuse throughout her life, and it really did speak to me.

    A whole bunch of fanfiction. And not just fanfiction. Yaoi and lemon fanfiction. Thank the gods I can still type right. Cause I can't talk worth a shit. Lemons do that to me. They send me into incoherent babbling.

    <b>Wahh! Ignore me, please!!!! I'm just going spasmatic!!</b>
