What Book are you Reading.................RIGHT NOW!!!

[Sol Fedder]

"The Girl who Played with Fire."

Second book of the Millennium trilogy.

I don't know what it is about these books, but one thing for sure is they are very hard to put down.

same here....first one was great and watched film other week on dvd with swedish subs....just started the second book.

These are on my list to read soon. At the moment, I'm reading "The Time Traveller's Guide to Medieval England" by Ian Mortimer. It's good stuff, written a bit like a travel guide.

Bump:

I'm not much of a book reader but currently 2/3rds of the way through the 'His Dark Materials' trilogy by Philip Pullman. It is generally conceived as a teenagers' book, I'm 18 and I love it.
First book, 'Northern Lights' was superb and just a shame the film ruins it by not actually including the ending.
Second book, 'The Subtle Knife' was also very good and now I can't wait to get onto the third, 'The Amber Spyglass'. As I said, I rarely read but this has me hooked, I'm reading for a couple of hours every day and i even think about what will happen next while I'm stuck in work!

This is one of my favourite trilogies. Really hooked me in the same way when I was 18.

Have you read the black magician trilogy? Again, it's 'teen' fantasy but I thought it was great.
