I read through the whole of 'The Boy In Striped Pyjamas' At the weekend, pretty short book and a good story as well. Anyone else here read it or seen the movie? Were you expecting the ending to happen as it did?

Apart from that I've been working through some non fiction books about politics. Pretty dire stuff most of it though.

So what books have you been reading/read recently?

Read the start of that ages ago, or I might have read all of it, can't remember. xD
From what I remember though it was pretty good, but took a while to get into.

I am reading "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" for school. Very boring so far but I have to finish it by thursday. I probably will end up just spark noting it though.


Dude, we read that too, now I have to blast through 200+ pages of Uncle Tom's Cabin over this weekend while working on an essay for huck finn :(

Man I hate the books/stories our english teacher gives us ... granted they have all types of themes and conflicts and philosophy and whatnot between the lines, but maybe it's looking for that stuff that makes me fall asleep while reading for homework. I know it could be worse with giant textbooks and no hope in hell of staying awake, but they could still get more interesting :P

As for leisure, I started reading through the Harry Potter series again last August since I never finished it - now I'm on The Order of the Phoenix (5) ... finished more than half of The Goblet of Fire (4) in one day last month due to being completely miserable sick. Also trying to catch up on gaming magazines, since I'm still wayy back on an issue in May 08 when they had a Gears 2 preview, and go figure, I've already beat it #-o

But what did such a Teuton afterwards look like when he had been "improved" and led into a monastery? Like a caricature of a human being, like an abortion: he had become a "sinner," he was in a cage, one had imprisoned him behind nothing but sheer terrifying concepts... There he lay now, sick, miserable, filled with ill-will towards himself; full of hatred for the impulses toward life, full of suspicion of all that was still strong and happy. In short, a "Christian"... - Twighlight of the Idols

I'm reading The Miracle On 49th Street by Mike Lupica at school (it's not a required book or anything, I just leave it in my locker at the end of school) and Ender's Shadow by Orson Scott Card at home.

I'm currently reading Monster. It's written a bit strange, a 16 year-old boy is on trial for murder, but he is writing everthing that happens in court and in jail in a movie script format. So it's his journal, but instead of just personal thoughts, it's a movie script he's written based on what's happened with the trial. I'm also reading some Tom Clancy Novels on the side, Clear and Present Danger, and Net Force.

Finished reading Magyk, hopefully soon my school will order books, so that I can read Flyte.

Now I'm going to read Warcraft: The Sunwell and Seeker.

I'm about to read Twilight once I get it from the library. Sounds like a good book from the feedbacks.
