I have just finished "The Crucible" by Arthur Miller and I it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be but a lot of people at school have been accusing each other of witchcraft lately....coincidence? I think not!

I'm re-reading a book by Bill Bryson called 'A Walk in the Woods'. It's an absolutely hilarious travel book about the author, a middle aged New England professor who decides he and his overweight friend will hike the Appalachian Trail (which, for those of you unfamilair w/ it, is over 800miles of mountain back woods trail up the Eastern part of the U.S.)

Anyone who enjoys hiking/camping/laughing should definitely pick it up. It's laugh-til-you-cry funny.

One of my documentary books by Sir David Attenborogh entitled 'The Living Planet'. It's an amazing journey through all the environments of earth with absolutely stunning photos and articles about all wakes of life on earth. Amazing, especially for me since all i do is read and watch documentaries. laugh.gif

Huh, I was working on this book for several months before just giving up on it and moving on - which I've only done once before, while in the middle of "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance" (hey, where'd the little vomit smilie go? sad.gif ).

So does it get any better? I gave up on page 479...

Now, I'm reading "Angels and Demons", by Dan Brown. Muy bueno! thumbsup.gif
ABOTU
I'm gonna check out Angels And Demons as soon as I pay my library fine wink2.gif if it's by Dan Brown I'm sure it'll be good.
gufzoo
Yeah, I'm flying right through it. Good combo of intellectual intrigue and suspense.

I'm finding it hard to imagine Tom Hanks playing Robert Langdon, though, in the film version of "The Da Vinci Code"...
ABOTU
I'm not sure either... we'll just have to wait and see. I pictured Robert to look a little... younger.

Yes, that is a birlliant book. Truly creepy. I read it last year and loved it.

The other day I was up til 2.30am finishing my book, Time and Again by Jack Finney, which I loved. It was set in 1882 and the climax was one of the large fires that happened in New York at that time. I couldn't stop reading until I finished because I had to find out how it ended. Because it was describing a real event, I knew it wouldn't necessarily all turn out fine so, really, anything could happen.

I really really really recommend it.

And now, I've just started The Da Vinci Code, which I'm really liking. It's so suspenseful, heh.

A book recently republished that was first published in the early 1900's. Great book, very informative and has quite a lot of hilarious stories. Good read for any mythology fan.

I just started Through Wolf's Eyes, by Jane Lindskold. It's not the kind of book I usually read, but so far I like it.
