BBC made a TV adaption of this.

Currently reading This Other Eden by my lookalike (or so people keep telling me), Ben Elton.

Batman: The Long Halloween

A Voyage Long And Strange by Tony Horwitz

I read Live and let die over the vacation. I had no idea what it would be about form the movie. Kind of an exciting premise Pirate Gold! A little bit raciest for todays audience

I recently read Harry Potter 5, and the movie version should have been longer.

Confession time: I have not read any of the Harry Potter books (:shock:. I know, but true!) so I didn't get a reference that my sister-in-law posted on my Facebook.

I flipped through the new Dan Brown book, its basically the same as his others. Well.. except the Mason are great and as always the Christians are bad and deceitful and whatever

The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson.

Starting City Of Ashes by Cassandra Clare. It's part of a trilogy of fantasy books written for the teenage set nut I read the first(very quickly) and I have the second and third books.

I'm reading a Raymond Chandler omnibus which contains the first four novels.

I just read this book, I really liked it even though I never got Greek mythology when I had to learn it.

WE are going to take the kids to see it next weekend if it is still in the theaters.

I liked the book enough I am going to pick up the rest of the series from Sams club this week,

Walking The Bible by Bruce Feiler.

Currently reading Pirate Latitudes by Michael Crichton and also a copy of The Wind in the Willows that I downloaded as a PDF from somewhere. I never read it as a kid, and was curious to see what I'd been missing all these years. In addition, I borrowed a bunch of books on folklore as research for something I'm writing and am plowing through those whenever I have the time.
