What Book Are You Reading Now? Mk II

Long Before Dawn by James Viscosi

It's one of those Vampire thriller things. Since it's my first time reading a vampire book, I'm unsure about reading another one, but it's strangely absorbing for something bought on a whim... :holmes:

I know! She died in March! I only found out this morning when my copy of Earwig and the Witch arrived to review with a note from the publisher talking about her recent death :O

Has anybody read anything by Isabel Allende? A lot of her titles look very interesting and I was hoping for some recommendations. As for me, I'll be re-reading my unit books in preperation for the upcoming exam -- Great Expectation, Jekyll and Hyde, et al.

My copy of War and Peace arrived yesterday - although I'm not going to start it until I've read a few others that I planned to read this summer - it is quite a beast!

Yeah, I've read The House of the Spirits and My Invented Country. The House of the Spirits is the novel to read of hers. Highly recommended!

I'm reading a biography of the young romantics by Daisy Hay which is pretty well written and engaging. Alongside that I've got 'The Crying of Lot 49' by Thomas Pynchon, a very interesting book but slightly chaotic.

I only got about halfway through Gone before I gave up on it, I just really didn't like it. I found it too odd a mix of childishness and real gore. : /

Blue Moon by Alyson Noël.

I don't like it at all. But I will finish it anyway, because I have stupid obstinacy to finish what I have begun. And I am pretty sure, that I will read following books of The Immortals. Stupid me.
