I'm almost finished Moriarty by Anthony Horowitz. SO. GOOD. If you're a Sherlock fan, like me, you'll definitely want to read it.
Just got Blood of Olympus, the #5 book in the Hero of Olympus. Can't wait to start it!!

David Copperfield is pretty much my favorite book ever.

Have you read the Red Rock Mystery series? I would really reccomend them if you haven't read them!Stella C. wrote:I'm currently reading the Mockingjay for the second time. I'm looking around for another series to read from cover to cover.
Another series that is new is by Tim Shoemaker; the first one is called The Code of Silence. The series isn't finished yet though; but it is really good.

The plot twist tho. I read it in the same room as two guys from my church and when I started laughing/crying (I was a bit hysterical, yes) they just looked at me like

The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Good book.

I read the 1st, 3rd, 4th, and 5th of the Young Sherlock Holmes Mysteries. The author, I was surprised to learn, went to the university that I can see out my window as I'm typing this.

I am reading Do Hard Things. It's interesting thus far.

I read Shakespeare's Twelfth Night. It was one of his easier reads: interesting, and a bit amusing (though of course not laugh-out-loud funny, because, c'mon people, it's Shakespeare).

I'm currently reading The Silmarillion. It's… interesting. But good. And it's cool to learn a lot of the backstory on LOTR.
I'm reading the tenth Left Behind book; they were different than I expected them to be. They are good, though.

I just started Gulliver's Travels. It's interesting alright. Jonathan Swift has a weird sense of humor.

This Present Darkness, by Frank Peretti. I. LOVE. IT. Those of you with different theology may not but that is OK and I really like it!

I'm reading Frankenstein. I got a audio-book to go along with the book.

The book is a MILLION times better than the movie, even just the first couple of chapters. Though the movie did a good job as well, the descriptions and the building of the characters was absolutely first rate, there was really no way to adapt it all to the screen.Stella C. wrote:I have not!

Really? Did we read two different books, my dear Lim? The characterization was good, certainly. But they had a somewhat limited set of characteristics, and they had a pretty basic story arc.

Reading Hostage Run by Andrew Klavan. BEST AUTHOR EVER. PERIOD. xD Been waiting for this book since last year.
