Just like the subject says:
What book (or series) are you reading at the moment?
(Is this thread spam? If it is, I'll delete it.)
I swear, I saw this thread here before.. and now it's not here.. (or maybe that was on another site?)

Anyway, can you believe it? I've never read The Chronicles of Narnia before.. and because the new movie is out, my friend (who is obsessed with it), told me to read them x3
It's long overdue (not the books.. I mean the fact that I haven't read them yet...)

I've just finished reading Girl with the Pearl Earring by Tracy Chevalier and I am currently reading:
The Magician's Nephew by C.S. Lewis

Phew. There are a LOT of brackets there..

I'm re-reading the Deathly Hallows right now. I just finished the His Dark Materials series for the first time, and I wanted to read something familiar before picking up something new. ^^ I've only read The Deathly Hallows once, so I'm reading it through again to see if there's anything I missed the first time.
When I finish that....whew I have a big stack of books to read. Stephen King's Dark Tower series, and also Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, and the list goes on and on.

I hardly ever have a 'backlog' of books. In fact, I have a habit of non-stop reading every time I get new ones. In any case, what I'm reading right now is a book called Empress. I hope it picks up soon, because, so far, I'm not too impressed with it.

Cool, i'm reading the Chronicles of Narnia too. I'm on the Prince Caspian book. I'm not reading it because of the movie, but because I didn't have any other books to read besides the Narnia books. I also have the Girl with a Pearl Earring book but I didn't completely read the book.

I'm reading a few different compilations right now. The Green Man: Takes from the Mythic Forest and The Coyote Road: Trickster Tales are both edited by Ellen Datlow and Terri Windling. They include stories from such authors as Neil Gaiman, Gregory Macguire, Tanith Lee, and Charles de Lint. I'd recommend them, as well as The Faery Reel: Tales from the Twilight Realm to any fantasy fans or mythology buffs. The introductions provide a solid background without being overwhelming.

I'm also reading The Norse Myths by Kevin Crossley-Holland. I've heard good things about his retellings of the Norse stories and thought I should give this a try before delving into translations of the eddas. The introduction provides a good bit of information on Viking history and culture.

Day and night, I am your light,
Once again to join the fight,
With my dark foes, who simply chose,
Better to keep in a glass rose.

Thank you for the Blue Candies!
