(December) What are you reading?

[Desdichado]

Somehow I doubt anyone out there is willingly trying to wade through Dostoevsky, but my new years resolution is to try and get through Crime and Punishment before next December.

Why do you doubt that? I've read Crime and Punishment--it's a good book. It's considered a classic for a reason.

I'm reading Neil Gaiman's "American Gods" (about 80 pages to go), and enjoying it immensely.

Every night, I also read "Bear Stays Up For Christmas" and/or "The Very Quiet Cricket".

I finished up Butcher's Academ's Fury, which was quite a good book, and I'm casting about for the next thing. I started on The Iron Tree, but the narrative style.. is a little offputting for some reason. I ordered Charlaine Harris' Grave Sight which seems excellent from the sample chapter, but it won't be here for a few days.

I'm now reading "The Last Citadel" by David L. Robbins. Really good book set during the battle for Kursk in WW2.

 

[Nikosandros]

Just finished "Atonement" by Ian McEwan.

Currently reading "American Gods" by Neil Gaiman.

I'm also reading (very slowly) "Lectures on Phase Transitions and the Renormalization Group" by Nigel Goldenfeld... I don't know if that counts...

Reading Seize the night by Dean Kootz. The writing inside is brilliant, truely, the descriptions are poetic and witty, they paint a perfect image in the minds eye.

That's a great series. I wish he would finish it already.

 

[John Q. Mayhem]

In the middle of Sailor on the Seas of Fate after finishing Elric of Melnibone. Good stuff, although the Four-In-One was kinda off-putting in that I thought it (and Agak and Gagak) was silly.
