I just finished the Princess Bride by William Goldman and Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton, and I'm finishing Hamlet before starting on The Hunchback of Notre Dame.

The Princess Bride is one of my favorite books. It's on my re-read list, but I'll worry about it after I get off my Dickens kick.

It's be awhile since I posted in here last...
of course you know I finished the Sookie series...
I started the "Wicked:Witch & Curse" got to book 3 (there are 5) and had to stop because I really really wanted to read "The Time Travelers Wife", which is a movie that comes out this friday here in the US. So far it is wonderful!!!
Other good books that I would like to suggest that I have read are as follows...
ANY of Gregory Maguire's books
-Wicked
-Son of a witch
-Lion among men
-Confessions of an ugly step sister
-Mirror Mirror
"Lost Boys" by Orson Scott Card
"The Looking Glass Wars" and "Seeing red" by Frank Beddor These are a twist on Alice in Wonderland which is my favorite book of all time.

i'm reading one of the best book of my life : The Pillars of Creation of Terry Goodkind. it's the seventh of a collection. I wish they'll never do a movie with those books, cause they'll never do a good job there are too details in them!

For fun: Movies in Fifteen Minutes by Cleolinda. You may know of her livejournal community m15m.
For class: Poisoned for Pennies. I believe the author is Ackerman. This is an obnoxious book because I really want to understand the arguments he is presenting, but within two pages, the book puts me to sleep. I read "dull books" for fun like Austen and Dickens. I can tell you the entire plot of Nicholas Nickleby which I read four months ago. However, I cannot get through two pages of this Pennies book. Bah
