Currently switching back and forth between two Stephen King books: Insomnia and The Shining. I received them for my birthday.
I stopped halfway through The Shining, will probably go back to it soon!
I'm currently reading "A Nurse in time; My life as a trainee Nurse in the 1930s" by Evelyn Prentis.
I just read Russell Brand's My Booky Wook and Booky Wook 2. Amazing! At least for me.
"...that incremental suicide of turning your life into a dream, to make being awake as similar to sleep as possible. Drowsily, lazily, dry-mouth your way through the day's ceremonies, fumble your way back into the dew-bather you never really left, draped in brown, brown now all around, the haze!" - Russell Brand on drug addiction.
"Si ma êkh gûndo piyiamásko...ándo bírto barruno. Bírto, bírto barruno."
OOOHHH MYYY GOOOODDDD YOU'VE READ THIS TOOOOO!!!! No one else has ever read this! ITS AMAZING :D x x x

The way he analyzes himself in such simple,but powerful words is so admirable.And his story is heart breaking.
You can buy me with a coffee,I'm so cheap. Got bitten fingernails&a head full of past;Got a broken heart&your name on my cast.
&&I wanted her to tell me that she will never wake me.
I'm STILL reading The Castle by Franz Kafka. I've read longer books than this in one sitting for god's sake... I blame my best friend. I went to stay with him for a few days and he loaned me half my body weight in games and DVDs. I have no reading time.

No Mean City by McArthur and Long. Has any non-Scot (or even non-west coast Scot) read this? I've read it loads of times before but as I was reading I was wondering if any non-Scots read it and if they struggled with the language?
I've just finished reading Fire (Seven Kingdoms book 2) By Kristin Cashore, which I loved.
I'm now starting Gale Force (Weather Warden book 7) by Rachel Caine.

I (openly) love you ;), I know, his style is simply gorgeous and the way in which he brings it to life is brilliant so emotive, one of the best autobiographies! So sad, I adored Leonard!
Everyday i plant this plastic smile on my lips,,
How long till I give up?
These scars are my biography
Pain and Loss and Hurt
This is my life. Georgia is my little sis :) Becky is my Twin x
Sammy=awesome to the frigging max. Watchers council and scooby gang extraordinaire, my Buffy buddy love.
Almost finished I Was Bono's Doppleganger, also half-way through a bumper book - Artist in a Floating World (finished) and Remains of the Day, by Ishiguro.
Carol McGiffin's autobiography.
Jodi Picoult - Picture perfect
Simone De Beauvoir - Le Deuxieme Sexe (been reading this for ages, taking me so long)
Peter Rickard - A history of the French Language.
Racine's Phèdre.
Okay, so the last two are for uni, but...
I've just read Melissa C. Water's memoirs about her time in a psychiatric hospital, was really good.
I finished The Wise Man's Fear by Patrick Rothfuss recently. His Kingkiller Chronicles really are some of the best high fantasy I've read in a long time. I've also been making my way through the Nightside Series by Simon R. Green, which are candy in novel form if you enjoy supernatural/detective novels.
