My wife & I re-read our favorites all the time. For me it's J.R.R. Tolkien; The Hobbit, LOTR, The Simarillion, The Children of Hurin. For her, it's the Harry Potter series.

It's nice to have something easy and familiar to read at bedtime. We are both reading A Song of Fire & Ice and we tend to stay up too late and not get enough sleep...especially because the twins still don't sleep though the night.

I tried reading books by J.R.R. Tolkien, I just could not get into his writing style.

The last book I finished was Tina Fey's biography. I'm a light reader and I live by Mark Twain's "classics are books that everybody praises but no one reads."

The Aleph by Paulo Coelho - good enough for a lonely human being such me

I read "the Alchemist" by Paulo Coelho and really enjoyed it. Also understand why it became such a good seller but I wonder what his other books are like.

now that ive started american gods, i really like the premise. these gods come to america but as people stop believing in them, they stop having god-like abilities.

:thumbup:

I love that series too. I think he ran out of steam in the last couple books but I still love it.

Once upon a time I had this job, 2 times a year, delivering 40,000 lbs of lobsters and all day long while weighing and bagging the beasts I thought about the lobstrosities... lol.

What a wonderful word. So wonderful that we ended up with a lobster in our Xmas tree. We couldn't find a lobstrosity so we used a regular lobster

I can NOT wait to get back into that!!! I read the Talisman and The Black House and The Gunslinger. But I read them all in about 10 days, so by the time I got to the second book of the actual series... I was bored.

But I recently found ALL of the illustrated ones (the ones that have a color image every x amount of pages) at a garage sale for $10. So after I finish the book I'm now, I'll start up again!
