Just finished reading 'I, Elizabeth' by Rosalind Miles.....very good!

Now I'm reading 'Patriot Hearts: A Novel of the Founding Mothers' by Barbara Hambly
 
I've finished two more Orson Scott Card novels (continuing the Ender's Shadow series) in the last week: Shadow Of The Hegemon and Shadow Puppets. I'll be finishing off the sequel-series by starting Shadow Of The Giant in a couple days.

In the meantime, wife gave me Big Fish to read. So far, it's really kinda depressing.
 
On a whim, I went to Borders a couple days ago and found exactly what I was looking for: Edgar Allen Poe: Complete Tales & Poems. 800 something pages of goodness (albeit a bit smaller of a font that I would like) on special for only $7.99. SCORE!!!! This has and will be giving me hours of enjoyment for a while.
 
Currently reading "I Hope they Serve Beer in Hell" Just finished "Generation Kill"
 
Just finished Brave New World last week. Now reading:

To be quite honest, I'd never heard of it before. I never got into comics. And the trailer didn't do anything for me since I obviously had no idea what this was about. But after seeing some of the excitement around over it, I looked into it. Seemed rather impressive and interesting. And I can't say I've been disappointed so far.
 
The new Terry Brooks book comes out today! Finally, the conclusion to The Word & The Void/Genesis of Shannara series!
 
Just started reading:

I'm just 15 pages into it, and I can already tell it's going to be amazing. Side note, this book should have been published in the late 60's, and the author committed suicide because of that, at age 31.
 
Miles: Come on, man. You know. Hemingway, Sexton, Plath, Woolf. You can't kill yourself before you're even published.
Jack: What about the guy who wrote Confederacy of Dunces? He killed himself before he was published. Look how famous he is.
Miles: Thanks.

Great conclusion to the double-trilogy of The Word and The Void/Genesis of Shannara.
