What books are you reading lately?

Any mystery or suspense books for me. I really like Koontz, Crichton, and King. I used to read a lot of westerns when I was a kid, they really got me into reading.

I'm currently reading a book I got at the library called The Pretend Wife. It was in the new fiction book section and the cover called my name with it's bright colors! Yes, I judge a book by its cover first. Well at least that's what tends to attract me to the book at first. Anyways, so far it's a good book! Not an author I ever read before but I'm always willing to try new authors.

BTW - I read a lot of chick lit and this book falls right into that category!

lets see i just rad a book called ancestral hungers by Scott baked which is a very twisted and dark view on vampires plus a little Indian mythology lesson in nagas its also extremely sexual but in a dirty violent way not a romantic way. now i'm reading a funny kinda book called see Jane date by Melissa Senate which is about a girl from queens trying to make it as an editor in a small time publishing company wile getting a guy who she can impress her high school prom queen with at her younger cousins wedding. and i think next i want to go back and reread either a great and terrible beauty or maybe an Anne McCaffrey book.

i just went to the library yesterday and i got a book out on winners of the Nobel Peace Prize and a book on the history of radio in the US (i work in the radio industry) so i am looking forward to cracking them open!

Herman Hesse was great. Read his other stuff first, and then tackle The Glass Bead Game, also titled Magister Ludi.I am curently reading Volume III of The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire. Also, The Life of Greece, by Will Durant, and a novel by Jonathan Kellerman.

Right now im reading the twilight series "again". I like to read the book of the movies i want to watch. I'm reading it again because New Moon is coming:)

I haven't been reading any books lately. I've been so busy writing and going to events for my job. Not to mention battling a consistent case of pink eye. I plan to start reading books in the New Year. I have a plan for myself. I'm going to read 52 books (one for each week) in 2010. It's very sad that I haven't read a lot. I like to read. I have two books on my "to be read" list. I just don't have the time. Hopefully, when I get out of all this writing challenge nonsense I will be able to curl up with a good book every now and then.

A Christian fiction book called The Visitation. The subject matter calms me even if I sometimes find it to be controversial. I read just a little about the same time almost every night. I'm also reading a book about schizophrenia that has a refreshing outlook. One that isn't hopeless or ignoring, but shows what's right about such traits. This is important to me because I have schizo-affective disorder. There is so much literature out there that will depress someone with hopelessness and yet well proven facts. But this book looks at life differently. I looked on Amazon and there seems to be a few others with this sort of subject.

I went to the library yesterday and I borrowed some books that I plan on reading in November. Two of the books were written by a policeman, and he describes some of his experiences and his meetings with people who have been involved in crimes. I have already heard about some of the those people and the crimes they commited, but I still find it interesting to read the stories. Most of the stories take place in the 1970's and when I read the stories I laso learn a bit about the Danish society "in the old days", and I find that interesting.

Currently re-reading Hannibal series. I just purchased the Silence of the Lambs (I first read my aunt's copy some years back) and I'd re-read Hannibal. Currently midway Hannibal Rising. The only book in the series I haven't read is Red Dragon. Don't have a paperback copy, but I have a digital one in my hard disk
