Last book read? or reading as of the moment..
Mine would be:
Like the Flowing River

I'm adding this question just for fun. Please feel free to answer.

Currently reading:
"The God Delusion" by Richard Dawkins

And I don't really have a favorite book...

**Tsuneki** · 05-28-2007 10:11 AM

Hm...
The book I'm reading right now is called
"By the Light of the Moon" ~ By: Dean Koontz
My Favorite book would be the book I'm reading right now.
I read it so many times.

**Froggydude** · 05-28-2007 10:25 AM

Best book i ever read is Franz Kafka's "Die Verwandlung"
And now i'm reading "In cold blood" of Truman Capote

I'm currently reading "The End of Poverty" by Jeffrey Sachs. Interesting how he says we can actually end world poverty by year 2025... And even more interesting that he might be right.^^

My favorite book of all time has got to be "The Little Prince" by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. It looks like and is written as a simple children's story, but when you read you realize that it's much more. It's a profound story about how we have grown up to value things that aren't really what's important, and how we disregard childlike innocence that we should've had in all of us.

Currently reading: "Hawksong" by Ameila Atwater-Rhodes

Favorite book? "Night" by Elie Wiesel. It really tore me up inside.. so sad.

**unspun** · 05-28-2007 10:37 AM

Currently reading Wolves of the Calla - Stephen King's 5th book in the Dark Tower Series

My favorite book is probably the 4th book in the Dark Tower series, titled "Wizard and Glass"

That or "Dominion" by Bentley Little.
Beware, I'd look up Dominion before trying to read it. It's really disturbing.

Eh? that includes my favs too.. I got two favorites, one would be "The Little Prince" ( the boa constrictor..>_<). The other would be "The Alchemist" I really like how the story goes about one's personal legend, and the story about happiness.. It's really great!

**BlazingSoul** · 05-28-2007 11:12 AM

The last book I read was "The Count Of Monte Cristo" by Alexander Dumas and so far it's my favorite.

**hameht** · 05-28-2007 11:20 AM

The book I'm reading is "The Last Unicorn" by Peter S. Beagle
The books that are my favorite is the series written by Terry Goodkind. I know there's a few strays that are worth noting but I can't remember. >.<;

**teed** · 05-28-2007 12:14 PM

Currently reading "Tales of The Greek Heroes" by Roger Lancelyn Green. It's about Greek Myth. I had to buy the book to do one of my projects. It's interesting.
Favourite book: I don't have one since I don't read much. =/ I liked "The Da Vinci Code" alot, though. So that might be it.

**Athena** · 05-28-2007 01:24 PM

I'm not reading any book currently, but the last book I read was Pretties by Scott Westerfeld.

My favourite book would be twilight by Stephanie Meyer.

**.Lovebeat** · 05-28-2007 01:39 PM

Last book I finished reading was "Malin + Rasmus = sant" (translated, Malin + Rasmus = true?). Swedish book, about two teenagers loving each other but they don't show it and blah blah... based on a true story, sad ending.

Currently reading Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. I'm at page... 400 or something.

Favourite books... well I love all the Harry Potter books. I don't read books so often... -_-

**-Batman-** · 05-28-2007 01:43 PM

Currently Reading: The Coming Of Conan The Cimmerian by Robet E. Howard.

Last book read: The Zombie Survival Guide by Max Brooks

**sa5m** · 05-28-2007 01:44 PM

I just finished reading Native Son by Richard Wright for H. English. Nice book, I almost cried in the end. ^^;

My favorite book... Maybe the Sherlock Holmes series?

**Tiamat** · 05-28-2007 02:01 PM

This one is a little tricky...

I'm going to start reading: "A Wizard Aboard" by Diane Duane

I just finished reading: "High Wizardry" by (guess who) Diane Duane

I'm stuck in the middle...haha.
Make note: I own and have the read the books about 10 times each already...I'm just re-reading my whole stack.

Should take awhile.

My favorite book...that's tricky.
I guess, overall, if I had to read it again, and again, and again, would be:

"Life As We Knew It" by Susan Beth Pfeffer

It's about a 16 year old girl named Miranda, that, through her journal, describes her life as her family struggle to survive after a meteor hits the moon, causing tsunamis, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions, etc.

It's interesting because...hey, it could happen.
You never know.

**CrimsonMoon** · 05-28-2007 04:22 PM

The last book that I've read is 'Flour Babies' by Anna Fine. It's a good, witty story. Well, there are many books that I like. (I'm a bookworm practically but I never like anything to do with my subjects

) But all-time favourite would be 'Artemis Fowl' series by Eoin Colfer. He's the best sci-fi author to me. I'm still waiting for the 5th book here.

**yamikokogunneko08** · 05-28-2007 06:12 PM

well the last book that i read was Plainsong by Kent something, it was for english so i cant really remember the name

the book im currently reading is The Swarm by Frank Schatzing (i think its Norwegian) and i love it

my favorite book is kinda hard since i like a lot of the dean koontz books but i know i really like the inheritance trilogy (everybody knows its as the eragon books or something like that but thats not what they are called thats just the name of the first book, and yes i know that the trilogy ist complete but i know that the last book is gonna be good)

and i like to say that i prefer the books over the movies cause ive found that when they make a movie thats from a book that ive read they screw up everything...i saw it in all the harry potters, the eragon movie, the davinci code movie, all movies like that they screwed them up badly especially the davinci code and eragon

**bttr** · 05-28-2007 06:19 PM

An Exam book(In school).

**nekogrl** · 05-28-2007 08:22 PM

As of right now I'm not reading any books (aside from some manga.) I'm waiting for the last HP book as of right now...(I'm sad it's the last...TTxTT) The last book I read is 'So You Want to be a Wizard' ...I have no idea who it's by...hehheh...Sorry. My favorite book...um...Probably one of the HP books...I can't decide...

**Gjallarhorn** · 05-28-2007 08:29 PM

Almost finished with Robert Graysmith's Zodiac, after which I'll be reading Richard Dawkin's The God Delusion.

And my favorite book is J.D. Salinger's The Catcher in the Rye.
