We need a book thread too!

Hrm, My brother tried to read Otherland, but gave up on it after a few chapters with complaints that it kept switching to a new character all the time without so much as bringing any closure to or even returning to previous characters. Mind you, he only managed a few chapters.

I've not read Otherland, so I've no idea how it compares. But if you like cats, this one is (so far) a must-read!

Recently reading a series of books by Jefferson Bass. He is the creator of 'The Body Farm' at Tennessee University. I plan to look into Kathy Reichs books which 'Bones' tv series is based on.

So I just had the weirdest fit of nostalgia and Wikipedia link spawn the other day, and I ended up reading through a ton of the pages regarding the Animorphs series, which basically ran from 5th grade to 10th grade for me. Man, I loved those things so much until the ending.

Also what is this I don't even

I forgot to report back, but Inside the Outside was wonderful. I made a friend buy it and she is loving it.

Reading Nutrition for Dummies because I'm super cool.

I finished Tailchaser's Song yesterday. In the end, I just couldn't put the book away. It was tense at some point!

The story is about a cat, Tailchaser, who is looking for this female cat who he really liked and suddenly (without struggle) disappeared. He's not really a tame cat, but also not really a feral one.

If you have cats, you really should read this book, you'll never look at your cat the same way!

New addition to the unread pile while I slog through ASOIAF. Battlefield 3: The Russian by ANDY MCNAB and Peter Grimsdale (Seriously, McNab's name takes up almost a quarter of the cover while the latter makes do with a dinky 1cm line below). I've not played the game, nor do I have any intention of doing so any time soon, but the lass of blatantly unnatural hair colour behind the counter seemed convinced the book would be a good read because ANDY MCNAB LOL.

Erm, yeah. Well, it only set me back less than a paperback anyway.

Yep, I'm, double-posting again.

I'm currently starting the first chapter of How to Get Rich by Felix Dennis (of Dennis Publishing - used to own PC Zone before it got sold off to Future and subsequently closed). For a book he claims to have written for his own enjoyment, It's still a bold thing to tell readers to take it back to the store it was bought from for a refund if they truly believe race, gender or upbringing can keep you from becoming rich.

Still, so far, even the preface has proven pretty entertaining and for all the right reasons. Dennis also doesn't beat about the bush either, it seems.

I'm near the end of Ghosts, and will hopefully finish Edge before start. I think I only spent a couple hours so far. I think the first book is quite short so far, but I am enjoying the story.

I have finished 50 Shades of Grey (O....my....gosh, hot!). When I do, I read up on beauty stuff and vegetarian books and recipes.
