I'm reading The Iron Trial by Holly Black and Cassandra Clare.

Brief an den Vater and I'm disappointed I haven't found time yet for a second session to finally finish it.
I wouldn't call a piece of literature (although I enjoy it very much), but more like a guide to better understand Kafka. Also, I really admire his ability to analyze situations that good and comprehend psychology when he had no actual expertise on that matter.

Grapes of Wrath, To Kill a Mockingbird, and I've been working my way through a whole bunch of Edgar Allen Poe short stories, also A Brief History of Time by Stephen Hawking.

Back when I was in elementary school, I substituted books for friends, which turned out AWESOMELY(Obviously), so ever since then, I almost never read anymore, which is quite sad. I am, however, currently reading a book called the Synchronicity Key, by David Wilcock. It's a very interesting take on how connected everything in the universe really is. Being a huge lover of conspiracy theories and how they come up with all of this evidence to help support their claim, whether or not I believe in what the book tells me isn't as much of an importance as it is reading what the guy has to say. Quite a compelling story actually. I recommended it for anyone looking to read a very different nonfiction book.

I finished reading The Evil Dead companion by Bill Warren, If Chins Could Kill: Confessions of a B Movie Actor by Bruce Campbell and I Am Spock by Leonard Nimoy. Right now I'm on chapter six of The Autobiography of Malcolm X.

I am currently reading Red Shambhala - Magic, Prophacy and Geopolitics in the Heart of Asia by Andrei Znamenski. It's non fiction and details the interest in the mystical land of Shangri La held by the Soviet Union and their expedition to Tibet in order to find it and use it's ancient knowledge to further their ideology and cause to building a socialist utopia.

Slowly, slowly, sloooowly making my way through David Foster Wallace's Infinite Jest (I'm maybe a little less than 15% of the way through). So far it's pretty damn fantastic and not nearly as daunting as people say it is, just really long.

XD Yeah I get what you mean. I go from actors, movies and television to ending it with a historical figure out of nowhere.

I might also want to mention that I am currently reading my textbook if that even counts. I even managed to get the entire thing read and got all the little inbook puzzles done! A pity I'm still not doing too well in that class.

Just finished: What If? by Randall Munroe
I'd definitely recommend this book for anyone who reads xkcd or has any interest in absurd scientific questions. It sheds light on classic questions like: Is it safe to swim in the pools where spent nuclear fuel rods are kept? What would happen if we began stacking pure samples of the elements of the periodic table into the shape of the table itself? What would a planet only a few metres across but dense enough to walk on be like?

Currently reading: Mother Night by Kurt Vonnegut
Pretty good so far. I'm still half expecting Tralfamadorians to show up or something.

Next: Slapstick by Kurt Vonnegut

My girlfriend had me read a few different graphic novels; all of which were really good. Blankets, Maus and Persepolis to be specific.

I'm also trying to read Battle Royale, but I got distracted and haven't touched it in a long time. I loved the movie though.

Just started Zorba the Greek.
Kazantzakis was a really great novelist and I'm glad I finally started a book of his.
I know I'm going to enjoy it, but I hope I won't end up spending too much time on it.

Since my last post, I've finished reading Mother Night, Slapstick, and Jailbird. All by Kurt Vonnegut.

I'm currently taking a break from Vonnegut with Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring by JRR Tolkien.

Next will be Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers and then Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King.
