I never seem to find time to just read... I have tons of books here I got from book clubs over the years I've never read, books I've bought to read... etc.

I'm trying to find our copies of Narnia, I'd like to read the 1st one before the movie comes out.

I'm reading one of the books from the Narnia series, I forgot how it's called and I'm too lazy to check! :P It's the one with the boy and the girl, who find other worlds with the help of two magical rings.

As for me, I'm soon gonna make myself read The Alchemist. I bought it and I'm really interested, but between homework, distractions and other personal interests I haven't read it yet. When summer vacations begin, I'll definetely read it.

I'm gonna start my little program where I read one novel, one self-help book, and one manga at the same period of time. So, I'm going to place those three books by my bed instead of in the small library in my room. Perhaps one day I'll read one, the next day another, and after that day the other.

I am reading A Series of Unfortunate Events - Book the Seventh: The Vile Village by Lemony Snicket!

When I started the first one, I thought they'd be too "kiddish" for me to read, but I really like them.

I just finished up The Color Purple and Glorious Appearing and am now beginning Angels and Demons by Dan Brown.

Two biographies of Elizabeth II

I just finished "The Cradle Will Fall" by Mary Higgins Clark. It's a mystery and it was well-written.

They were all terrific. Mommie Dearest, taught me some stuff about Joan Crawford that i never knew. According to the book by her daughter, she was nothing like her on-screen image in real life. My Antonia is a great classic novel that I highly suggest reading to all.

I just found my copy of David Copperfield. No, not the magician. :p The book was written by Charles Dickens. The book is more than 800 pages long.

I know, I've heard of it. I haven't read it, though.
