Posted by Jiji on 05.07.2010, 05:56 AM: What book are you reading right now? I am currently reading volume 4 of My Little Sister Can't Be This Cute (Ore no Imouto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai)," the light novel which will get an anime adaptation later this year. My next leisure reading is probably Eiga Douraku by Toshio Suzuki (<- Tavern members should be able to recognize this guy straight away ) .

Posted by husky51 on 05.08.2010, 12:27 PM: just finished "Hyperion Cantos" a rather strange, rather lo-o-o-ng book (over 900 pages), but got pretty interesting towards the end... something like Michener's "the Source" in that it was a number of different things coming together as one... Kinda sorta... and almost as long...

Posted by arren18 on 05.16.2010, 01:44 AM: The Left Hand of Darkness by Ursula Le Guin. It's about an Envoy sent by an interplanetary group to an icy planet inhabited by humans who are, about five sixths of the time, genderless. Stuff also happens.

Posted by Kazegami on 06.15.2010, 10:27 AM: I started reading Lolita today. Am finding it... well, a bit weird. Kind of uncomfortable really. Though I guess that's to be expected.

Posted by arren18 on 06.15.2010, 12:24 PM: I'd say the second and third Earthsea books are the best, so if you like the first one, that's a good start. And as of a few years ago, it's not a quartet anymore.

Posted by Yay! Kiki on 06.15.2010, 01:47 PM: ...There's a fifth Earthsea book?
