I haven't read any manga lately, though the last one I read was The Dreaming.

I haven't read those books in years, seen the movies but that was ages ago too. I remember our old teacher reading out the first Lord of the rings book to us.

I loved Memoirs of a Geisha - that was a beautiful book. I'd love to re-read that.

I fail to understand how anyone could NOT enjoy reading. :/
Anyway, I'm currently reading Andromeda Klein by Frank Portman. I'm having trouble getting into it...King Dork was better, IMO.

I can't enjoy reading because TV, video games, and Internet is more gratifying...
But before I discovered those wonderful things, I was sort of an avid reader....

I fear for the future generations.
I'm reading "The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle" by Haruki Murakami (?) It's pretty good, I can't put it down, I'd been hearing good things about it on this thread so I decided to pick it up. That's what I've been going for many books recently. :)

With books, you're kind of forced to use your imagination to envision what's going on. And it's fun, and very gratifying indeed.

Sorry, meant to say satisfying...
I can't use my imagination all too well which is why I let people decide it for me...
But that doesn't mean I don't exactly hate books, I just don't like reading them... Usually I just listen to the audio version of some cool books...

My thoughts exactly.
Well, I like to read a lot. Agatha Christie is a personal favorite of mine--I've read almost all her books--and while she used to be my favorite author, I now find myself reading a lot of YA: John Green, Maureen Johnson, Sarah Dessen, Deb Caletti, and the like. Those aren't the only books I read, but they make up the bulk of my reading material. I used to be a lot less picky. Ah, the old days. Good or not? I don't know. *random tangent*
yeah so I left.

I'm also rereading Magician by Raymond E. Feist, and realising just how much of Eragon was plagiarised. >___>

My best friend read Gatsby for English and loved it.
I'm currently reading And Another Thing. I have tons of books to read afterwards, which is quite annoying. Busy BSX'll be busy.
Examples are Gatsby, The Time Machine, Orient Express, Burmese Days, To Kill a Mockingbird and, because of how bad I've heard they are, the Twilight books.
I Do LPs. Here's a link to watch them on my channel on YouTube.

I only want to read it because I want a good laugh. My exams are coming up, and I'll need stress relief.
Also, Animal Farm is win. Everyone should read it if they want a good read/want to write an easy critical essay. But be prepared to cry. It has a very depressing scene in it. I honestly hated Orwell for it for ages until I finished the book.

I managed to get to Chapter 12 or so and I was like "... That's it I'm done."
There are WAY better vampire stories/books out there.

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series has been pretty much my favorite since I read it a decade ago in high school, and back then if I'd heard there would be a new book, I'd have been delighted without question, but taking into account the way Mostly Harmless ended (and the fact that Adams himself died), I didn't think it was even possible to continue the story. Even so, I gave AAT a fair shot.
I was really impressed; overall I thought it was better than the last couple Hitchhiker's books Adams himself wrote. There was a slight touch of retconning at the beginning and maybe a couple too many "Guide Note" sidebars, but those are minor complaints for what almost amounts to a childhood dream coming true. Ending was pretty sad, though.
Also, this book reminded me that Arthur/Fenchurch was one of my first ships.

The Dragon Keeper Trilogy
The Protector of the Small Quartet (and other series of books by the same author)
The Inheritence Cycle (i think that's what it's called- Eragon books)
His Dark Material Trilogy (Think that what's its called- Golden Compass books)
And Holes is a pretty good book

If you didn't read Robert Asprin or Max Fry, you didn't read fantasy whatsoever.
