Magical--I was VERY dissapointed in reading POTO. Raul made me want to slap the fool out of him. He cries about EVERYTHIHNG that Christine does. I bet if she farted, he would cry thinking that it was the most beautiful thing on Earth.
I'm rereading Little Women for my film adaptation class. *grumbleLaurieandAmymyassmumble*

The Lord Of The Flies because it's amazing.
Summer of My German Soldier for English, 9th GRADE?! This is totally like, a sixth grade reading level. Blah. I dislike this book.
I've just finished reading The Pilot's Wife by Anita Shreve, it was pretty good.
Snobs by Julian Fellowes
TheatreDiva--I just finished Bergdorf Blondes. It's a fun read!
meggison- I really hated Lord of the Flies. So much. So, so much. You really thought it was good? What about it did you like?
And I actually thought The Pilot's Wife was almost..boring. Wasn't too fond of that either.
Actually, in the past week I finished up 3 books. Why? Because I had a HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGe spider in my room a couple of nights ago, I hated her. I named her Gustapo. She was scary. And so yeah I hate spiders so I spent the night reading even after my daddy killed her. So I finished up 2 of the Shopaholic books. I liked them, they were funny, but they sort of drag on now because I kinda feel like every single one is the same thing now...
And I finished up The Other Boleyn Girl. Loved it, loved it!
And now I'm reading The Heart of a Woman by Maya Angelou. She is just...wow.
I love the Shopaholic series, I have a chick lit problem.
Currently reading "lies and the lying liars who tell them" by al franken. I love Franken.

1984 is such a good book.
I'm reading, for the 10th time, A Density of Souls. And when I'm finished with this, I'll start reading Ripley's Game. I read The Talented Mr Ripley a week or two ago and loved it..
I just recently got into Harry Potter. I didn't think i'd join the bandwagon but i'm loving it. I'm just starting the fourth one now.

The 4th one's the best, but the movie makes it look really bad.
I joined the bandwagon my sophomore year, when the third book came out. Or was it freshman year? I don't remember.

Yeah, I meant to write boring instead of good for The Pilot's Wife. I was really tired when I wrote that, so that's probably why. I tend to type the wrong words when I'm really tired. I agree with you on that, The Pilot's Wife dragged on and on and the personality of Kathryn was just really annoying.
Wow, I haven't talked to ANYBODY who has disliked Lord Of The Flies before! I like it because I think it has a really interesting setting and the characters are all different, and some of them are kind of mysterious. It reminds me of Peter Pan at the beginning, when they all first get there and have the first meeting with the conch.
I don't know, I'm enjoying it so far. I'll tell you what I thought of it when I am finished. I read abour three or four books at once though, so I don't know when that will be.
American Theocracy by Kevin Phillips.
Very interesting. I highly recommend it!

The Constant Princess- Philippa Gregory
The Taming of the Shrew- Shakespeare
Purple Hibiscus- ????
The Last Boleyn-Harper
LOVE Taming of the Shrew
Lol yeah, me too.
Meggs---I agree "The Pilot's Wife" is pretty boring for Antia Shreve. I find it hard to believe that this is her most well known novel. Try "The Weight of Water"...it was much more interesting. And then there is another one...I can't remember the title...that tells the story of the husband in Weight of Water. Much better!
i'm re-reading harry potter and the order of the phoenix
Brimstone by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child.
Oh, I completely forgot Ready or Not and All Quiet on the Western Front.
