Bram Stoker's Dracula. I have a deep love for classics (and vampires). Interestingly, I'm loving how it's written in an epistolary format, meaning it's a collection of journals and newspapers stubs.

I am reading a strange little book called "The Book of Lost Things". I hadn't heard of it before, but someone recommended it to me, and I figured I'd try it out. It incorporates lots of fairy-tales and myths, twisting them around to fit its own story, and it's pretty interesting so far.

I was in the city for a Japanese face to face lesson and I decided afterwards to make a quick detour to Kinokuniya (a book store near Town Hall Train Station in Sydney). I picked an English-Japanese Pocket Dictionary for class. I also picked up the first volume of Death Note and read the whole book tonight (first book I've read in ages), I like it and wish I'd bought more of them. This is the first manga that I've read (excluding a Zelda Box Set I have), I should look into more in the near future :)

My own book, actually. :) It's called The Masked God. Although I know the story quite well, I am still reading it because I am checking for errors that I could have made.

For class I'm reading Neuromancer, but for leisure I'm re-reading The Hobbit for Tolkien Day. I seriously love The Hobbit, if only I could have a class on Tolkien... but a class on sci-fi is the next best thing.

50 Shades of Grey!

Naw just kidding... I'm currently reading The Hobbit (For some reason, I haven't read it yet... I've read all three LOTR books though...), and so far I'm enjoying it. I saw the movie, which I loved!

At school, we're reading Macbeth. Not too bad, though I never was much of a fan of Shakespeare...

Just finished reading A Game of Thrones. It's a pretty good book; however, I'm not positive if I want to watch the HBO adaption of it now.

I'd like to start A Clash of Kings some time tomorrow, but only if my schedule permits me.

Okay, so I just finished The Surgeon. CAN YOU SAY THRILLING?! Thrilling, but graphic. e_e

Okay so the last few chapters had me about to piss my pants. THE SERIAL KILLER WAS HIDING IN HER CORDELL'S CAR LIKE WTF NOW YOU MAKE YOUR MOVE. AND THEN RIZZOLI'S A BADASS AND FINDS THEM, BUT SHE'S NAILED TO THE GROUND BY SCALPELS AND JUST WHEN HE GOES TO KILL HER, CORDELL (PRETTY MUCH HALF DEAD AT THIS POINT) SHOOTS THE GUY AND THE POLICE /FINALLY/ ARRIVE
YOU KNOW WHAT REALLY SUCKS
THE SERIAL KILLER LIVVVVEEEESSS!
My heart was racing, I think I almost cried. It was a GREAT book!
