What are you reading right now?

[Sarah Norman]

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.

[MoonMuffin]

Ohh I've read that before, it wasn't my favorite of her books but it was still pretty good :)

[Fake Crowley]

Re-reading ANGEL by James Patterson.

 

:D It hasn't come out yet.

[Contradiction]

Was it that good? o.e I can't believe that.

[Fake Crowley]

No.

I have my reasons for re-reading it-namely, my parody-and the smiley face was because nobody else has it.

[Contradiction]

Ah. It was the rereading about which I was wondering. I got the smiley.

I'm in the middle of like twenty books right now, because I get sidetracked when new books are put in front of me.

 

But the ones I've been consistently reading recently are

- Catch-22 by Joseph Heller

- Nation by Terry Pratchett

and - The Man Who Was Thursday by G.K. Chesterton 

[Sarah Norman]

How do you like Catch-22? It's on my list, and I'll probably end up reading it. I hear mixed reviews, though.

[Chip, A Former Ningmaster]

I loved Catch-22. It was awesome. It's been a few years now though, so I don't really remember why it was awesome, just that I liked it XD

[Abreo]

Same here, Catch-22 made me laugh my ass off when I read it. Granted that was two years ago and my sense of humor has since become much more demanding but it was funny back then.

[Andrew "T.T." Melzer]

Terry Pratchett is amazing! 

[Elizabeth Rain]

Terry Pratchett is amazing! Sometimes he can be slow with a story but his books always make me laugh.

[RandomLanguage]

Nation was a really great book.
