So, what books are people reading right now? What are they about? What do you think of them? Would you recommend them?

 

I tend to read two or three books at a time. Currently, I'm making my way through the following:
  • The Omnivore's Dilemma by Michael Pollan
  • Ishmael by Daniel Quinn

I only just started Ishmael, but The Omnivore's Dilemma is very good.

I'm rereading T.A. Barron's The Lost Years of Merlin series, and after that I'm moving on to The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.

1984 by George Orwell. I like it so far. 

finished Blood and couldn't resist starting Temple of the Winds

Felidae by Akif Pirinicci 

It's a murder mystery novel except with cats. It's pretty disturbing, a good amount of sex and gore. It's oddly hard to put down thought. I don't really even understand why I enjoy it. 

I finished paper towns 2 days ago, and now im reading an abundance of katherines.

I'm reading Inheritance : The Vault of Souls by Christopher Paolini. I'm kind of indifferent to it so far. It doesn't seem to be as enduring or interesting as the first two books of the series. Lots of summary, tons of it. I'm only 25%  through, so hopefully it'll pick up in pace. 

haven't read any of inheritance yet, but i've found most fantasy series guilty of this over recap.  sounds like it should be wrapped up though.

Just finished " the perks of being a wallflower"(: It was AMAZING!!!

About to start "The Pirate's Son" by Geraldine McCaughrean

"The Fortress" by Mesa Selimovic. He's a local author and the book is awesome so far. When I finish it, the next one will be "The Dervish and the Death".

I am currently reading The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde, I'm about half way through and I'm really into it! Has anyone else read it!! I am still a little confused on how how his soul and the painting are linked - though it may still get into that! 

I just got a Kobo Vox E-Reader from my parents for Christmas and this is the first book I'm reading on it :) does anyone else have one?!? What do you think of them?!? :) 

I've just finished Amy Tan's The Joy Luck Club, and now I'm starting Tina Fey's Bossypants. I vowed to read 50 books this year, and Bossypants will be number 49,  so close!

you might still pull it off.
