Reading four atm...

'War and Peace' Leo Tolstoy (still going)

'the book seller of Kabul' Asne Seierstad (a little bit slow)

...... something by Dan Brown (completely over it already - I prefer Mathew Reilly when it comes to action).

'QB VII' Leon Uris (almost finished! but not quite as riveting as his 'Mila 18')

Edit: Instead of re-reading the HP series I've been re-reading the Sevenwaters Series by Juliet Marillier - YOU HAVE TO READ IT - one of the best fantasy writers I have ever come across).

I thought I was the only slacker lol.

I read up to pg 2000 at the beginning of the year - then I was side tracked - forgot the main details (which I usually don't do lol but the book is pretty jam packed) - and so I have re-read from the start since three weeks ago (whilst juggling my other books of course :)) and I now sit on page 600...Quite an achievement I feel ;)...

Did you choose WAP due to its rep as literary mountain?

Edit: So should I call you a Sigloi? (AKA the term for a silver Persion coin)

Oh what is 'tenth circle' like? I liked 'nineteen minutes' and 'the pact' - am about to start reading 'change of heart'.
yeah 'nineteen minutes' was really good. the 'tenth circle' was also pretty good. i dont think it was as good as 'nineteen minutes' but it was still a really good read.. what was 'the pact' like? i think im going to read 'my sister's keeper' next..
