I don't read much anymore but the last book I did read was "Always A Thief" by Kay Hooper. It's a lovely romance and err...I'm not sure what other kind of genre it's really about. But it does have to do with a thief and murders and yes love and sex. It's a really good read in my opinion. It's thrilling in a different way than Kay's other books like "Touching Evil". Touching Evil is a really incredible book. It's about some mystery killer going around kidnapping, raping, and mutilating women, and it's up to the police and a psychic sketch artist to find the killer. Definitely worth the read. I just still need to buy the whole series.

As part of my homeschool studies, I read part of a book every night. Usually it's classic books. I recently finished Treasure Island, and I'm currently reading Lord of the Flies. After that, I'm reading Peter Pan.
Thankfully though, after managing to convince my gramma, after Peter Pan, I get to read the Hobbit!

Recently finished Callous Disregard, which is the first non-fiction book I've read in a long time. Wow; I knew some bad shit went down at the Paducah Gaseous Diffusion Plant, but a lot of the stuf in that book was news to me O.O;;;;;;;; I hope those dumbasses in Washington don't cut off funding for the clean-up efforts there.
U is for Undertow is sitting on my shelf, but I haven't felt like cracking it open yet.

Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? is an excellent book. Currently, I've been reading the Bhagavad Gita at a very slow pace. I've finished everything else I've been reading lately.

I never read chapter books anymore.
I just finished the whole Scott Pilgrim series, and I got some volumes of Pokémon Adventures as well as Sonic, Mega Man and Adventure Time graphic novels from the library.
I'm currently searching for the new 20th anniversary addition of The Nightmare Before Christmas storybook. It's the original poem that Tim Burton wrote in the eighties.

Finished "Cat's Eyewitness" (by Rita Mae Brown) recently. A fun read if you're into mysteries that treat dogs and cats as part of the main cast, but it's part of a series. Reading some of the previous books is recommended cuz this one refers to old events.
As for "U is for Undertow" (finished it a while back), it was a good read too, but I didn't enjoy it as much as some of the earlier books in Sue Grafton's "alphabet" mystery series.
Also been reading Ubuntu documentation, but you probably don't wanna hear about -that-

Right now I'm in the midst of reading a collection of Science Fiction short stories, the book is titled after the one of the stories: The Last Train to Limbo. I picked it up at a used book store for $4 (although the cover said 75¢); so much for 2/3 off the cover cost ;P. Anyway, what got me to buy it was the authors listed: Ray Bradbury, Arthur C. Clarke, and Larry Niven to name a few.

Mostly higher-class pshychological Creepy Pasta, fiction-wise. Fenter Woods, Frozen, Mr. Stringy, and He Hunts, these were real good stories. You have them read to via Mr. Creepy Pasta on Youtube. Plan to start reading Game of Thrones. But I am tempted to delve into some Sonic Fanfiction. Good recommendations?
As for non-fiction I am doing some syntopical readings of The Reason For God by Timothy Keller, A Shot of Faith to The Head by Mitch Stokes Ph.d, and some of Ph.D. Jim Elson Black's work. I don't know it this counts but I have been studying Ben Hogarth's Dynamic Figure Drawing as well.

Not studying it well enough, apparently. His name's Burne, not Ben.
(Yep, I have that book too. All it's done is make me jealous of Hogarth's skill.)

Game of Thrones is awesome.
Fan fics? Well You can always look at mine *wink wink* there is also RedAuthar's fin fic and fan comic.
Some say that he knows 2 facts about ducks, and both of them are wrong. And that 61 years ago he accidentally introduced Her Majesty The Queen to a Greek racialist. All we know is, I'm going to the tower now to have my head cut off, and he is called The Stig.

Whoops! Had Hurst on the brain, while writing that.
