I'm reading Something from the Nightside by Simon R. Green.
I'm up to the 3rd book. It's avery interesting fantasy-ish series. It's one half satirical and one half serious and one half awesome. This is also the type of book where having 3 halves of something is entirely possible and you're not sure if you want to know how or why haha.

I'm reading your guys' post...
But the book I'm reading is:
Inheritance, part two: Eldest
-Christopher Poalini
Not a bad trilogy so far. Little cliche.

I am currently reading Part 5 of the Dark Tower Series by Stephen King: Wolves of the Calla.
This series is so good, I am starting to read slower so I do not finish the Dark Tower Series too quickly. Anyone who is looking for an alternative fantasy series, The Dark Tower Series is a must...

I'm currently re-reading Jumper by a guy named Gould. I forgot his last name, but this is the best book in my opinion. If you like sci-fi, or even if you don't, it's a good book.

Like Water For Chocolate by Laura Esquivel. It's pretty good, if you're into magical realism.But it's not as good as Toni Morrison's Song of Solomon-- an excellent read.

I'm about a quarter way through Bee Season by Myla Goldberg. Enjoyable, humorous and light. Not a bad way to spend a few days in bed after oral surgery.
