    Recently finished my second reading of 'The Time Travellers Wife', incredible book. I had a good cry at it too, I always think a book that can have that effect must be doing something right!

    I tend to read a couple of books at a time so I can switch between them depending on my mood. Currently readung the second book in 'His Dark Materials' by Phillip Pullman - The Subtle Knife'. And also a book on Alister Crowley.

    I'm now reading P.J Tracy's new novel called Snow Blind. Only read a few chapters, but it's good so far :)

    I'm also reading How To Read Egyptian Heiroglyphs by Mark Collier, and a boring book on Behavioural Ecology for my Uni course.

    I've just completed a book by Jean Craighead George called 'My Side of the Mountain'.

    The story is about a young boy named Sam Gribley who ran away from home and went to live near his Great-granfather's farm which is deep in the Catskill mountains. The story tells of how the boy became independent and learned to survive out in the wild on his own. It also has illustrations or sketches of small hand-made contraptions like a fishing hook or a how to build snares and traps to catch small game.

    I'd recommend that everyone read it, the young and young at heart. :)

    Now I wanna run away. LoL!

    Thanks! Yeah, I love P&P too (ok, who doesn't know that by now? :lol: ), especially Mr Darcy :devil: In fact, I love all Jane Austen stories (though perhaps Persuasion not so much).

    That reminds me, I'm also re-reading Sense and Sensibility by means of an audio book. It's nice to listen to whilst I'm on my computer writing my thesis or something else :)

    Is anyone here a Phillip Pullman fan?
    I know that they are childrens books but I was given 'His Dark Materials' as a Christmas present last year and absolutely loving them. Been reading this afternoon that they are finally making them into movies.
    Anyone fans?
