[February] What are you reading?

Four days in, and no new thread?

I finished "Northern Lights" by Philip Pullman on the 31st. Currently reading "Scum and Villainy" for Star Wars Saga Edition, and then will be reading "Children of Hurin" by Tolkien.

After that, it's "Galaxy of Intrigue", the latest Pathfinder, and probably "Fragile Things" by Gaiman, in some order.

Reading a collection of short stories by Ha Jin called The Bridegroom.

Also randomly reading bits from The Best American Crime Reporting 2009. One of the articles is about a writer in Poland who wrote a postmodern novel about a murder that linked him to an actual killing: Murder, he wrote: Crime author charged with killing he penned | Mail Online

Currently reading Google Reader. I will move back to Jack Vance (Tales of the Dying Earth, a compilation of his DE books) and probably back to the Black Company if I can find where my kids put the middle book (another compilation of the Books of the South).

I finished The Hounds of Skaith, by Leigh Brackett, then moved on to Edgar Rice Burroughs' Carson of Venus series. I'm currently on Escape on Venus.

Next up for me is Gaiman's Graveyard Book. I just finished The Godwulf Manuscript by Robert Parker.

I'm reading ERB's The Gods of Mars, after inhaling the first John Carter book on vacation, Taleb Nassim's Fooled By Randomness, and, still, Joyce's Ulysses - I made it %10 of the way through then kinda petered out...

I also recently finished a wonderfully clear, concise, and witty account of the financial meltdown by British novelist John Lanchester called I.O.U: Why Everyone Owes Everyone and No One Can Pay.

Finished up Dragon Forge and now I have started Darkwood mask which is very good thus far.
