I just finished "Watchmen" today, which is amazing. I'm not sure what I'm going to tackle next - I think I might read "Fragile Things: Short Fictions and Wonders" by Neil Gaiman as I recommended "American Gods" to my boyfriend, and his discussing it is putting me in the mood for some of Gaiman's beautifully crafted fiction.

Currently reading 'Game of Thrones' by George R. R. Martin. I'm not a massive fan of politics but the way this book is written it has just sucked me in, I've read about 300 pages in 3 days!

Also considering starting Girl who kicked the hornets nest to counter-balance the epic fantasy of Game of Thrones...

I'm planning to hunt it down online and watch it :smile: The book definately doesn't soften the edges! The first hundred pages has a poor little girl being coerced by her brother and a young boy nearly murdered!

I'm reading The Lovely Bones too, although not for an exam just for pleasure :smile:
Hope your exam goes well, I'm enjoying it so far.
George Orwell- 1984

Such a good book
I've just finished American Psycho by Bret Easton Ellis and that was amazing. I'm now onto The Catcher In The RYe by JD Salinger, I've read the first two chapters and I'm not too impressed so far but we'll have to see. :smile:
