I just finished Draemcatcher by Stephen King and start Message in a Bottle by Nicholas Sparks.I've seen the movie Messge in a Bottle by Kevin Costner. I love that movie so I desided to read the book.I read Angels and Demons two years ago and I think it's of course a masterpiece of Dan Brown.His plenty of knowledge in religion helps him to show us the reality of Rome.His another novel Deception Point is also worth to read.

A intelligence analyst Rachel was called to the Arctic to verify an amazing aerolite found few days ago.Inside it they found fossils of something like life-forms that meant there might be a proof of outspace life-form.But Rachel and other scientists found the truth and they faced dangerous killer.Dan Brown showed me technologies about aerolite, sea creature, etc. in this book,and it's also a thriller that I can't put down.I hope you enjoy the reading.

The Silmarillion - 1977 George Allen & Unwin hardback edition.
The Silmarillion is a collection of J. R. R. Tolkien's mythopoeic works, edited and published posthumously by his son Christopher Tolkien in 1977, with assistance from Guy Gavriel Kay, who later became a noted fantasy writer. The Silmarillion, along with J. R. R. Tolkien's other works, forms a comprehensive, yet incomplete, narrative that describes the universe of Middle-earth within which The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings take place. The History of Middle-earth is a twelve-volume examination of the writing and revisions of The Lord of the Rings and The Silmarillion by looking into J. R. R. Tolkien's rough drafts and by commentary by Christopher Tolkien.
I've just started reading J.R.R. Tolkien's Silmarillion. I started the book from the last pages because that's where you are told how to read certain letters from different languages used in the book. After reading that, I'm going through the name index...The Silmarillion is a collection of J. R. R.

I have read sections of Silmarillion, but I find it a bit tedious to just read beginning to end. Ever now and then I pick it up, and read a chapter. Maybe I will finish it before I die. Maybe.

I enjoyed Angels and Demons and recently heard it will soon be out as a movie starring Tom Cruise. I am reading Three by Ted Dekker which is also a motion picture

I'm currently reading the Stephanie Meyers' Twilight series. It's taking my a lot longer than usual to complete these books because there is to much of unnecessary imagery written. I mean it's okay to describe who green a tree is but to go on about it for more than a paragraph is a bit too much for me.

I am currently reading Tami Hoag's A Thin Dark Line. It's a good book so far. The last book I read before that was Lightning by Dean Koontz. Which was really good. Angels & Demons was a really great book. I really liked it.

I've read Thin Dark Line by Tami Hoag also and yeah and it's quite good but for her other books the plot are quite exciting but I can't figure out the turning point of the story so it's quite dissapointing and I've read 3 books from her already

I'm reading Enneagram wrriten by an American writer- Helen Palmer. It's a book about character. It says there are nine characters: the perfectionist, the giver, the performer, the tragic romantic, the observer, the devil's advocate, the epicure, the boss and the mediator. Different kinds of pelple like different things and do different work. This book makes me know about the people around me clearly. It's nice, isn't it?

Right now, I am typing on my lot and not able to read a book at the same time. :) The books I am slowly working through when not on mylot would be a book about Crime and Punishment through the ages (Dark Justice, I think), the bible, and a book of Lost Tales by Tolkien.

I am reading "Dragonfly in Amber" by Diana Gabaldon. It's the 2nd in the Outlander series about a woman in the 1970's who inadvertantly travels through time back to the 1700's in Scotland. She ends up falling in love and deciding to forgo her old life, including her husband. So far it's based mostly in the 1700's although I do get the hint that it will go back to the 1970's in a future book. Not my normal reading genre, but I've found myself really into the characters and setting. It's been a great change from my usual.

Angels and Demons is a great book! Looking forward to the movie, if they ever make it. I'm reading Kathy Reichs at the moment, just finished Break No Bones and getting ready to start Bones To Ashes. Whenever I find an author I like, I usually read everything they've written.
