What book(s) have you read recently?

[Aesthetic Shampoo]

Just finished Inheritance by Christopher Paolini...good book, good read, but i couldn't help noticing inconsistencies and the characterization was horrible; i didn't care what happened to the characters throughout the whole thing. Oh, and the final battle was REALLY anti-climatic.

Still reading full metal alchemist I think im on number 11?

Currently reading one of my very favorites ... with zombies this time.
Yeah it's "Pride and Pejudice and Zombies".

I'm making my way through Mistborn right now. So far it doesn't live up to the hype. There's nothing WRONG with it, but nothing really special about it either.

[DXMichael]

Finished Star Wars Republic Commando: True Colours. Love Delta ad Omega squad, good book.

Half way through Gears Of War: Jacinto's Remnants. Should be finished with that soon

[Student no.0]

Recently finished THe Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. It was pretty great thriller but very tragic at the same time. Eager to see what direction the story will go in Catching Fire.

Now reading through Percy Jackson and the Titan's Curse by Rick Riordian.

Les crimes de l'amour by le marquis de Sade

[Beryl Black]

I've so recently finished The Chronicles Of Vladimir Todd: Tenth Grade Bleeds which is the third book to the five part series of it. Relating to the series, I also finished The Slayer Chronicles: First Kill which is about a character from the Vlad series and his struggle, so far there is only one book for that chronicle.

I personally don't enjoy vampire series in the slightest, but these in particular were worth my attention, a purely entertainment based series. The characters are more so interesting, then what you'd expect from the blandness you'd see in characters in the average vampire series. Humorous, suspenseful, highly enjoyable; worth the read.

Currently enjoying the bizarre but still, strangely wonderful and super fun, The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle by Murakami Haruki.

[Last Carpet]

N.E.R.D.S.

N.E.R.D.S. 2:M is for Mama's Boy

N.E.R.D.S. 3:The Cheerleaders of Doom

[NorthernFallout]

Mistborn: The Final Empire & Mistborn: The Well of Ascension - Brandon Sanderson.

I didn't know about this series until a couple of weeks ago, and it quickly became one of my all-time favourites, at least in the fantasy genre which is a genre I normally don't like. It's just brilliant.

Currently reading Stephen King's Cell.

I know right? It's a favorite of mine as well, especially in fantasy.

A little over halfway through Inheritance, the final book in Christopher Paolini's Inheritance Cycle.

[David Watts]

Finished reading the Angel of Darkness
I also finally finished reading all the volumes of Akira

[Haak]

Currently reading The Gamble by Thomas Ricks. A sequal of sorts to Fiasco.

[Akashin]

As the sig implies, I'm trudging through Scott Lynch's The Lies of Locke Lamora bit by bit. Not for lack of interest, but because I can't read more than a few pages at a time without having to stop to laugh. I suppose I'll be getting to Red Seas Under Red Skies sooner or later, too.

[Haak]

^ That's a great series. If only Scott Lynch wasn't doing a George Martin and would hurry up with the series.

[Rennir]

I finished reading Inheritance by Christopher Paolini a week or two ago and I must say I was disappointed at the ending, although I do realize my personal bias does account for half of that disappointment I also read The Assault by Henry Mulisch, which was a fascinating read.
