Re: What have you been reading?
I've been reading Eragon lately. Great book. Great, great book. I must agree with those that say the movie botched it. The movie was good, but left out so much. Good good good book

Re: What have you been reading?
Eragon sucks. I have NEVER seen more plagiarism in anything.

Re: What have you been reading?
plagiarism in like how all fantasy steals LOTR's trappings or in other respects?
Anywho, I generally havn't been reading much outside the manga world lately to my own sadness. Some of my favorites I've re-visted lately were "Salamandastron - From the Redwall series" and "Long Dark Tea Time For The Soul by Adam Douglas"

Re: What have you been reading?
Yes, but that's to be expected. It's the way it copies Star Wars, scene by scene, that really ticks me off.

Re: What have you been reading?
actually picked up a WH40k novel from the library. I play the table-top alot, and saw it just sitting on the new releases shelf, so I thought I would pick it up. So far its pretty good for war porn...

Re: What have you been reading?
I remember having to read Nineteen Eighty-Four for school. Not the best novel to be forced to read when you have a heavy work load, that's for sure.
I'm currently reading Frankenstein. Oh what fun that is /sarcasm

Re: What have you been reading?
I had to read Great Expectations for Engrish.
I read the abridged sparknotes version. Does that count? Last book I seriously got through cover to cover would be.........Of Mice and Men. God, I loved Lenny. |

Re: What have you been reading?
Urgh. 1984. I did not enjoy that one bit.
But I just finished speed-reading Grendel for school. It was interesting... I have Snakehead from the Alex Rider series sitting in my backpack waiting to be read though, so I guess I'll be reading that next... |

Re: What have you been reading?
Reading, in great detail, page by page of World War Z. It's going to happen some day soon, I got to be ready when it happens. My zombie plan will be 10x better with this book by my side.
