The Bourne Identity.

Pretty decent so far.

I've been wanting to read those books. On Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde still. Almost done, also reading Halo: The Flood, and Frankensteins Monster. Good books.

I like the Bourne books. They're really rooted in the Cold War, much like early Le Carré, so that kind of bogs them down.

Or it bogs the movies down, because they feel the need to update the stories of the books and end up deviating to the point of irrelevance.

Also, I just started The Girl Who Played With Fire.

Haunt of Jackels.

Odd books. I get this shadowy feeling that they're lame...but I'm really enjoying them. Mysterious, no?

It doesn't hurt that the secondary main character is, freakishly enough, nearly the same as a character I have running through a series of adventures of my own making.

trying to find my place in The ScrewTape Letters I think my kids moved my bookmark

just passed the halfway mark for " a clash of Kings " from the song of ice and fire series, also heard the audio books for the hedge knight and the sworn sword from the same storyline. pretty good!!! but the main books are looooong!

Frankenstein. Haven't touched it since last week though.

Just finished Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Great book, must read.

Finish Halo: The Flood, great book also.

Just started Halo: First Strike.

I picked up the original Trade Paperback releases of the first three books in A Song of Ice and Fire. The original paperback releases are actually decent, as compared to the not-so-good binding on the latest release. Would have preferred Hard Back, but this was all they had. Not complaining.

Just read The Apology of Socrates and Crito, both by Plato.

The Warlords of Nin by Steven Lawhead.

Which I would consider classics, but I'm uncertain how many people would agree.

Or rather, how many people I would have to violently fight until they agreed.

Academically I've been reading stuff by Marx, Darwin, and Freud.

But on a more pleasurable level, I've recently finished,

One Day - David Nichols
and
Shutter Island - Denis Lehane

And I'm several chapters into The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, and should be starting The Shining soon.

Sure, it's all pop fiction, but I need something to keep my mind off things.

finished Screwtape Letters

Still pushing through Paradise Lost.

It's...hard. Even I'll admit that.

Otherwise, I've finished the first part of Faust, and am about half through The Water Margin.

In addition, I've been going through a large-ish collection of various British essays and poems.

Uggh, Paradise Lost. Trust me, it's even worse when you have to read half of it in less than a day.

I enjoyed Faust though.

I can imagine.


Just read Sophocles' Antigone, Euripides' The Cyclops, and Aristophanes' Lysistrata.

Good, good, and hilarious.
