Jean Rousseau's Social Contract. While his constant paradoxes continually make people misread him and make his works confusing, it's a lot easier than the last book I read (which was John Stuart Mill's On Liberty).

(Hey, Quartears.)

I am currently reading Ink Exchange by Melissa Marr. Tales of modern Faery. Mmm... =D

Once I finish it today, I'l finally start Stephenie Meyer's The Host. After that, possibly finish Brave Story...?

Recently I decided to go back through and read the Harry Potter serties in its entirity, as it was bothering me that I had never finished the entire thing. I'm on "The Half Blood Prince" at this point. - I'm actually not even sure I want to read the seventh and final book now, I really have no desire after my sister spoiled quite a bit of it, and only two or three of my favorite characters live-on anyway.

But I'll probably read it, just to complete the series.

After I'm finished with it, I think I want to jump into Stephen Kings "Dark Tower" series, starting with "The Gunslinger." While maybe dipping into a few of the stories, for fun, in the "Hans Christian Andersons Works" book I got for Christmas last year, but haven't had time to touch yet.

Once I get through my late-Christmas-books that have gone neglected for quite a while, I have a list over 3 pages long to get through. x-x;

Finally started the Slayers light novel series by Hajime Kanzaka. Currently reading the first book - 'The Ruby Eye'. I have a feeling I'll have it finished in a day or so.

So far it's good stuff, just like the Slayers I love!

Everytime I'm home at my parents' house, I find myself rereading the same old books from my childhood. Thus, I just finished rereading Ella Enchanted for about the billionth time and will probably reread another Animorphs book or two before I leave tomorrow. Nostalgia much? :3

I have a box which I put the books I want to read in. It sits by my bed. It is kinda full right now.
Currently I am reading a book called "The Complete History of Jack the Ripper" by Philip Sugden, because I am morbidly curious about the Whitechapel murders. I got it from the library.

The books in my box are:
"The Historian" - Elizabeth Kostove (library book)
"Loop" - Koji Suzuki (library book)
"Mr Foreigner" - Matthew Kneale (library book)
"Interview with a Vampire" - Anne Rice
"Atonement" - Ian McEwan
"Son of a Witch" - Gregory Maguire
"Mirror Mirror" - Gregory Maguire
"Grotesque" - Natsuo Kirino
"Dark Water" - Koji Suzuki

I finished James Patterson's Black Market today. I found it horribly disappointing and hard to get through compared to some of his other stuff, and it took me three weeks of reading it at work to finish it as I had no drive to read it anywhere else :|
I'm going to be starting Marianne Curley's The Named later tonight or tomorrow.

At the moment I'm reading The Glass Books of the Dream Eaters by Gordon Dahlquist.
But I'm stuck somewhere in the middle, because I kind of lost the interest. It seems all that had happed during the book, repeats at some point in the story.

The other book I'm reading (re-reading for the 3rd or 4th time) is Night Watch by Terry Pratchett.

I'm reading the French book "L'amour dure trois ans" (Love Lasts Three Years is the English title I think) by Frédéric Beigbeder.
It's a post-modern book (I think, I'm not sure)
It's about a guy that have a theory that love only last three years.
