Forums and I just got into the "Haunted Bookship Mystery" books. So far there are five books out with a sixth coming soon. I have four of the five and just realized I'm missing the third book, meh. So far so good and I'm loving the mild romance thrown in.
Oh geez, what all am I reading now... Irrational Season by Madeleine L'Engle, Interview With A Vampire, Gods of Mars by Edgar Rice Burroughs, Tale of Two Cities...couple others, I forget what...

I am so glad I am not the only one that reads a lot of books at once
Plus I am on the hunt for Pride and Predjuice and Zombies. But everywhere is backordered, excepts Powell's in Oregon. For some reason the hubby doesn't think I should be going to Oregon to a HUGE used book store. Not sure why, looks around at the piles of books. ooooh maybe that is why
Coffee should be strong, black and chewy! It should strip paint and frighten small children.
I just finished Tim Dorsey's latest, "Nuclear Jellyfish." Anyone who is not familiar with Dorsey, he is sort of like Carl Hiaasen, only funnier and less political. If you like crime and violence and laughs and utter insanity, trust me, check out some Tim Dorsey. First one is "Florida Roadkill," and they only get better from there.
And if you ever bump into Tim during a book signing, just remember....he likes Jack Daniel's on the rocks. (I got him drunk one evening. )
But everywhere is backordered, excepts Powell's in Oregon. For some reason the hubby doesn't think I should be going to Oregon to a HUGE used book store.
Powell's is one of the two greatest bookstores I have ever been in, the other one being Strand's in New York City.
But I do believe Powell's is online, so you don't actually have to GO there.

And now I know what goes on my list after I've re-read the rest of the Miles Vorkosigan books. I just love Brandon Sanderson, I almost want to read the entire Wheel of Time series, just to read the three he's finishing.

Edmund Spenser's The Faerie Queene, which I hope to finish before my 40th birthday (am currently in my mid-twenties) The Survivor's Club, by Ben Sherwood The Complete Idiot's Guide to Drawing Manga, 2nd Edition Breaking Dawn by Stephenie Meyer
And I am this close to giving in and starting Tad Williams's "Memory, Sorrow and Thorn" series. Oh yeah, and my sister's copy of Inkdeath is sitting in the to-read pile. I should read that so I can return it; it's only been sitting there for four months.
I'm currently rereading the Dresden books. I just finished book 7 last night and am trying to hurry since I haven't read the new one yet. I'm waiting and reading them in order.
