Just started Vladimir Nabokov's Lolita. I've been wanting to for a while, and finding out about the Poe references in the book caught my attention.

In class we're reading The Crucible but during my free time I'm reading Speaker for the Dead by Orson Scott Card :)

I'm reading "boring" English theory stuff like Kafka's The Trial, and also Rudyard Kipling's Kim because that's what my honors thesis is on :P

Ooh, The Crucible is one of the few books I had to read that I liked. Very good book.

I just finished Phantom of the Opera for the umpteenth time...

How The Irish Saved Civilization by Thomas Cahill

I'm reading a collection of Dorothy Sayers' Lord Peter Wimsey short stories. I love detective stories. :D

Earth in the Balance by Al Gore. It's outdated(1992) but it's the most interesting of the global warming/ecology books I've been using for my English paper, so I've been using it to get ideas for what I can write about next and then searching through the more recent books and stuff for information.

Ouch.

The Crucible by Arthur Miller for school and On the Road by Jack Kerouac for fun.

The Catcher in the Rye. Not for school or anything, I just randomly decided to read it. Yeah, I'm wierd. Not sure how I like it so far. All I can say is, I can see why it got on banned books lists. And I've barely started.
