I've only read one Bond book, the first one...I'm intrigued by the new Sebastian Faulks Bond book...I may have to check it out.
On Chesil Beach by Ian McEwan (of 'Atonement' and 'Enduring Love' fame)

I finished The Host and I adored it... I just loved Ian... =)
I dunno if I feel like reading right now, maybe I'll reread something..

I finished The Host about ten minutes ago. I loved it too. Ian, Jared, Melanie, Wanda, Jamie...I love them all! Think I'll need to wait a day or two before starting a new book.

Ian was my absolute favourite! I just wanted to give him a huge hug.
I'm rereading Uglies now.

Hi,
I'm listening to The Host. It is really interesting!

So after I finish the book Specials (for the second time xD ) I'll probably reread Eclipse.

Close to being done with Eclipse again. Then I'm going to read my summer homework.. Into The Wild and Walden. I hope they're good.

I've read some of Walden. It's okay if you like that "getting back to nature" stuff. Transcendentalists were never my cup of tea, however, they did make me appreciate Nathaniel Hawthorn loads more. Hawthorn lived to make fun of people like Thoreau.
Almost done with Palahniuk's Rant. It was hard to get into because it was written like a mash up of a series of interviews, but it's not bad. Very interesting, yet very bleak.

Currently reading Little Women by Louisa M. Alcott. Been meaning to for a very long time and I just got it for my birthday so now I am.

Oh, I love Little Women! I can't decide which book to read next...Clarissa or Labyrinth?

Labyrinth! Because even if it has nothing to do with the movie of the same name, the movie with the same name had David Bowie in it and Bowie is awesome. I got a new bunch, and I've read all but the first already: You Only Live Twice - Ian Fleming Ender's Game - Orson Scott Card 1984 - George Orwell All Quiet on the Western Front - Erich Maria Remarque Yeah, I liked 1984.
