I love the fact they stuck him in League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. He wasn't in the graphic novel(s), but still, that movie was SO AWESOME.

I'm still reading that honking long list from before.

I finished 'The Alchemist'. It was pretty good & unexpected. Now reading PG Wodehouse. I find his books real funny - I especially like the books featuring Jeeves.

I'm finally reading David Copperfield (again). Only problem is, I don't know how I can finish about 1000 pages in two weeks... :-/

Hm...maybe I'll just stick to reading the darn book. Those are pretty useful when you're going to take a quiz on a book you haven't read in a while though. :P

Thing is, I think I'm supposed to finish this book by the time school starts. -_-

You could skim most of the book and then read it in depth after school starts, I guess.

Currently reading The Devil's Cure (Kenneth Oppel), The Time Paradox (Eoin Colfer) and The Ontario Drivers Handbook (Ontario government people, I expect). Still reading JS&MN.

Currently reading the instruction manual for the new graphing calculator I bought...

I finished Breaking Dawn around a week ago....I'm still not sure if I liked it or not....The beggining was ok but the end was pretty lame... ^o)

Just finished Grim Tuesday-Garth Nix but since the library doesn't have Drowned Wednesady I'm re-reading Artemis Fowl...
