Currently reading Shardik but will soon have to put it down to read The Sun Also Rises.

Wow. :scared:

I preferred The Regulators to Desperation (although I got through both)....



Anyway, I'm in the middle of Veronika Decides to Die by Paulo Coelho.

You're not alone.

I haven't read the Dune books (although I have the first three installments), but I have seen the two miniseries Frank Herbert's Dune and Frank Herbert's Children of Dune. I'm...

:lol: I've read those and the Harry Potter books, and The Chronicles of Narnia, and The Once and Future King (and the Space Odyssey series, although those were really science fiction rather than...

Currently reading Barry Lyndon by William Makepeace Thackeray.

I have a few books I want to read when I finish, too.
