Just finished "The Lightning Thief" from the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series. I know, it's teen reading, but my daughter's like them and I like to read a series. I figure it gives us another thing to talk about. I've read the HP books, the Eragon books and the Ranger's Apprentice books as well.
Awesome book. In fact, that whole series is awesome. If you plan to read the whole thing, be sure to do it Farseer Trilogy -> Liveship Trader Trilogy -> Tawny Men Trilogy. The middle trilogy doesn't impact the lives of the characters in Farseer/Tawny Men, but there's a lot of things that will make a heckuva lotta more sense if you'd read Liveship first.
Plus it's a good series on its own.
That's a wicked awesome series. Maybe by the time you're caught up, he'll have the next book out......read faster **** it!
That's another great book. Incredibly funny and, unfortunately at times, quite true to the life.
Currently I'm reading "QED: The Strange Theory of Light and Matter" by Richard Feynman.
Just finished rereading The Year of the Woman by Jonathan Gash It gives an unsentimental, un-romanticized view of what it's like to be a poor girl in Hong Kong while also being suspenseful and exciting. Oh, yes, and just a dash of the supernatural--but not your average supernatural dash!
This author generally produces mental popcorn; it's fun while you're reading it, but there's not much substance. This book, though, is excellent.
