What Novel Are You Currently Reading, Version 2

Just finished Fahrenheit 451 for school. Second time I've read it, made more sense this time. About to start Animal Farm

 

I'm starting to read Gulliver's Travels for school. I'm actually excited about reading it, but not annotating. Also psyched about the movie.

 

Im reading Mockingjay!

 

George Orwell's, 1984.
I wanted to know the whole deal about room 101.

 

Elfstones of Shannara

 

Harry Potter.

i saw all the movies so much but this is my 1st time on book 1.

 

I'm currently reading The Help by Kathryn Stockett as a novel for a class project. It revolves around the lives of three women in Mississippi during the time of racial segregation. So far I find it a very interesting read the only obstacle I had to overcome, however, was the spelling. You can definitely sense the Mississippi accent by reading the book, for example: instead of writing, "I was sitting at the table when the phone started ringing" it would be phrased more or less like, "I was setting at the table when the phone started a ringing." But after reading 60 some pages I got used to it and I find it has a very well written story. I'm excited to see how the ending goes

 

Mysteries and Secrets of the Templars by Lionel & Patricia Fanthorpe

I find the Templars are absolutely amazing, however, this novel isn't exactly what I expected. The authors mainly speculate topics in regards to the Templars, but they leave you to question their information which makes it seem as if they're not even sure what they wrote about is true. I would have prefered if they had atleast given a few hard facts, but that's just my own personal opinion.

Mind you, reading this makes me want to read the Da Vinci Code. Leonardo Da Vinci is one of my seven wonders of the world (;

 

Jude the Obscure, because my teacher said it's the saddest book ever written and actually made him cry, maybe I'm heartless because I haven't read anything that sad yet. I was reading Dorian Gray but I had to put it down, it was too boring. Now I'm feeling a bit horror so I've picked up, The Dead too.

 

gonns start reading Romeo&Juliet by William Shakespear today....in school.it's about 2 lovers from rival familes.in the end..everyone "keeps spoiler from ppl who dont know"

 

Currently I am re-reading J.D. Salinger's Catcher in the Rye. I can't get enough of that book. I've been thinking about looking into The Portrait of Dorian Gray. In fact, I've meant to take a look at it but haven't had the chance.

 

I just don't get that book. I agree with South Park's stance on it. It's just a book about a guy complaining about his life.

I've tried reading it a few times. I just can't do it. I start falling asleep whenever I try.
