There Will Be Dragons, by John Ringo. It's a mix between science fiction and fantasy, so naturally, I adore it.

I'm bad at math for two reasons: I'm not good with numbers.

Breaking Point by Alex Flinn. It should be a quick read.

1984. Almost done. Should've finished ages ago, but I haven't had consistent time to read it. And it's longer than I remember. And the last time I read it, I was in 8th grade and had considerably less interest in understanding the chapters describing the evolution of their government.

But I thought she said maple leaves..

oh i love 1984! Yes, those chapters were really kind of difficult to understand. i had to read them twice, but i think it's fascinating.

i'm reading Tree of Avalon from the Avalon series by Marion Zimmer Bradley. It's history fiction and very good. I've just started.

i loved you.
you used me.

The Avalon series are pretty good. The Mists of Avalon is made into a movie too.

How could you describe the colour blue to someone who is blind?

Bahh! We're talking about that in History. :]



I'm reading Catcher in the Rye for school. For my own purposes, I'm reading The Devil's Code by John Sandford. I'm not very far into the book but I really, really like the style of writing so far.

^I read Catcher in the Rye last year. Some people in my class loved it while others only thought it was okay. I was part of the latter.

I just bought Washington Square by Henry James to read for my APLit's independent reading book. I haven't started it yet, but I probably will this weekend.

I just finished an A-List book and now I'm reading:

Odd Girl Out by Rachel Simmons

The movie that I LOVE TO FRICKING DEATH was based on this book.
