I started reading Sense and Sensiblity a few days ago. Like all Jane Austen novels, it's lip-smackin' good. 50 pages in and already three potential husbands for two sisters. . .

I read this book a year ago and I thought it was pretty interesting. I actually read it just for fun and not b/c I Had to. A professor had it as a required reading but he just let me have a copy so that I could read it. It has some pretty crazy stuff. There are certain fast food establishments that I will not go to now b/c of this book!

The Mystery at the Ski Jump by Carolyn Keene, but it's a really nice book since it has the first picture cover.

I finished Mr. and Mrs. Smith awhile back. It was an awesome book. Probably one of the best books i've read, if not THE best. I'm about to start reading Batman Begins now.

Well. since there's only a fortnight until the new Harry Potter book is out, I've started reading the first 5.

I'm currently half way through Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.

I'm also reading it very analytically in order to pick up clues, and I've come up with a few bits I've never noticed before, for example, why does the sorting hat take so long to sort Neville? :wink:

Battle Royale by Koushun Takami

To sum it up very briefly, 43 15-year old students from Eastern Asia are abducted and brought to an island (that is extremely difficult to escape from) where they are told that they must participate in a game where they kill each other.
