Just about to start The Silver Chair; Book six of the Chronicles of narnia. Been reading the series since I got it for Christmas, and it's been grand reading these stories again.

Right now I'm reading Walden for poetic inspiration, and Little Women when my head starts hurting from that. Thoreau and Alcott go well together.

I'm reading "The Other Boleyn Girl" by Philippa Gregory. A delightful historical novel, about Anne Boleyn's younger sister Mary. Henry VIII's court is described in detail, which I love.
