I'm currently reading The Naming Of The Dead by Ian Rankin.
Took me to at least Chapter 2 before I was really into it because the story is set around the time of the 2005 G8 Summit in Gleneagles, which I didn't really know a whole lot about it so just found it tricky to enjoy to begin with. But now I'm nearly finished I'm really enjoying it and can't wait to find out the ending!
Ok.
I'm still reading The Forgotten Garden.
I need to read A Room of One's Own for the Book Club.
I need to read at least part of another book for my work course.
And I just got another book out yesterday too.
Agh!
"The best Little Girl In The World" by Steven Levenkron and "Pleassures of The Damned" - a collection of poems by Charles Bukowski. I also just received a copy of the Dean Koontz-Odd Thomas manga "In Odd We Trust" so I'll be reading that too.
"...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."
i'm reading 'Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas' by Hunter S. Thompson
wish i read it first thought, all i can see is Johnny Depp now in my head - not that that's a bad thing even if he was bald O.o

I'm reading Small Island by Andrea Levy at the moment, as a part of my English Literature course. I don't usually like the books the set at school, but this one is actually quite good :)
Now I'll play your ghost as my ace, whenever I'm led astray.
But I am actually good, can't help it if we're tilted.
I'm in my right place, don't be a downer.
so badly want to read lolita. i had to read a short story by nabokov a couple days ago for uni & it was insanely confusing. apparantley nothing like lolita though.
i finally finished reading sebald's austerlitz after about two months & now i am reading waterland. but i am only 30 pages in out of 300 & i gotta read it by tomorrow afternoon so i might give up with that.
i want to read the woolf story for book club too.
