I had to read "Rocket Boys" by Homer Hickam for summer reading. It was really good.

The last book I've read was Julian Barnes's "Arthur and George" which I thought was quite good. The last "best" book I've read was Tim Roth's "The Plot Against America".

I'm now reading "The History of Love" by Nicole Krauss which is good, so far. Normally I wouldn't read a book with the word Love in the title and I was about to dismiss that one as well until I found out she's married to Jonathan Safran Foer, who in my opinion should be imprisoned for being so young and such an awfully amazingly good author. I thought to myself that if he married her she's probably worth reading. At least I was right about that.

Sorry, I'm a bit of a book worm (but don't have as much time to read as I would like to...).

Don't like brave new world *gasp* That opening sequence was written perfectly for an audience that's used to visual entertainment! While I don't exactly agree with brave new world it is one of my favorites. had to laugh when I saw a license plate with "soma" on it .

I've been working my way thru a series of authors my dive buddy reccomended for me....havent really enjoyed any of them :%)...but I'm reading them anyway .

Re-read the last hp book to refresh my memory for the new one that just came out....enjoyed it more this time around, and I'm sneaking into bookstores to read a few chapters @a time on the new one.

[link=Terry pratchett]http://www.terrypratchettbooks.com/" style="COLOR: #EB4288[/link] is still my current favorite author. He's got plenty of books to keep one busy too .

Been doing summer reading for AP english...

The best out of those was Fahrenheit 451. Then 1984, and the one I'm currently on (and dont like) is Brave New World.

The Lovely Bones, by Alice Sebold. It's absolutely incredible.
