The first two were pretty fun.  Got old fast though.

i don't read much, but a while ago, i stumbled upon this book in a bookstore (litterly, it was just lying out in the wrong section of the store) by Geral Schroeder called The Science of God.  I read the first half of it when I bought it and put it on my shelf but picked it up again the other night.  Very interesting.  The guy makes some compelling points but also has a couple crazy theories; nothing to base you personal beliefs on  but gives plenty to think about.

Think I might start reading Game of Thrones tonight once I'm done with the book I'm reading (David Sedaris's Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim)

I actually enjoyed the Incarnations of Immortality series a bit more than the Xanth series.  Well except the last book, wtf was that?

Right now I'm reading the Sword of Truth series

Game of Thrones is amazing, well at least the first three books were.  Sounds like Martin is finally releasing book number five this summer, only a couple years late.  Anyone watching the HBO series?

I did also.  I liked the first two Thanatos and Chronos after that, I thought they kind of fell apart.  Fate was my last read in that series.

Working through book 2 now..losing some interest, but that's probably because I was listening to it almost non-stop....Really enjoying it on HBO so far...it's going very fast, but I'm impressed with how true it's been to the books so far....

I actually started with "For Love of Evil"  and then went through them mostly in order.  I liked that you didn't have to read them in order.

Read Of Mice and Men last weekend, since I'm like the only person in America who wasn't required to read it in high school.

Currently reading Game of Thrones and Hunger Games

I'm about 200 pages in and it is really pretty good :) I almost want to take a day off so I can read it....if my wife only didn't have to find out about it :)
