Hamlet - William Shakespeare (actually really awesome)
Getting Green Done - Auden Schendler
Summer Knight - Jim Butcher

And The Devil in the White City again, because I'm doing H.H. Holmes for my psychopaths project.

They're really good, if a little corny.

Green Eggs and Hamlet... O_o ... ^_^

Should show this to my friend who calls Hamlet and Horatio, Omelette and Pistachio. For unknown reasons.

Death Masks - Jim Butcher

Oh no, this is going to turn into one of those times where I go on a book binge and read an entire series in a short period of time...

I would be very happy if something like that happened with me.

Anyone else out here who reads P.G.Wodehouse? I'm utterly in love with his books now.

Better than Land of Silver Apples, but not as good as Sea of Trolls.

Whoa. This is definitely his best book. It makes the great Little Brother look like juvenile crap.

Though in a woman's perceptive. Plus more focused on the sexism against women.
