What are you reading right now?

I just finished Dune (fucking amazing!)
and now I am re-reading a clockwork orange...i read it for a project last year and want to really sit down with it this time

 

"Pilgrim at Tinker Creek" by Annie Dillard. It is amazing, such beautiful reading, even though it doesn't really go anywhere. It's nature writing, reflective and poetic; slow reading because it is so inspired that it makes you pause and think pretty often.

I'm also reading "The Unexpected Universe" by Loren Eiseley. He was a scientist who had a well developed literary sense, so his writing is also pretty thoughtful. He makes science poetic, which is excellent. I recommend checking him out, I liked "The Star Thrower" by him the best, so far from what I've read, it's a bit of an athology I guess.

 

I'm currently reading a great book called "God And The Evolving Universe". It's an incredibly insightful book which discusses the evolution of spirituality within us as individuals and in our society as a whole. I strongly recommend it!

 

the complete stories of Theodore Sturgeon (sorry if i got the name wrong)

its good, and he's a visionary and all that, but i swear if this guy was a comedian he'd talk for three hours to set up a one liner

 

This awesome series called "Y - The Last Man" about a virus that kills off everything that has a Y chromosome... except for some reason one guy and his pet monkey survive.

 

The Poisonwood Bible

 

I read multiple books at a time...
The Grapes of Wrath
The Scarlet Letter
To the Lighthouse

 

im reading i will fear no evil by robert heinlein. hes such a badass author. i loved his other book the cat who walks through walls and thus far im really enjoying the one im on now. id suggest him to anyone

 

The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde. I love this book, I've read it so many times, but I can't get enough of it!

 

I just finished reading 'A Million Little Pieces' and am thinking about reading "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas' for a second time.

 

Val McDermid - "The Distant Echo"

 

Right now I am reading "1984" for my literature class.

 

im reading that book right now for class too

 

Cool. What do you think of it so far? lol...I gotta catch up on my reading, I'm only on about page 50 or something...:d

 

Flowers in the Atiic. This is an excellent read. Almost done with it. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

 

i just finished a book report on that. i love the book. sometimes i feel like i'm empathizing too much with esther/sylvia and i get depressed.

 

william burroughs- ghost of chance

 

Nora Roberts - "Night Smoke"

 

Breaking open the head: A psychedelic journey into the heart of contemporary shamanism by Daniel Pinchbeck. so far it is good, sometimes hard to understand( i keep a dictonary by my side!)

 

Nora Roberts - "Night Shield"
