Still working on the Harry Potter series .. .and wanting to start My second Garth Stein novel. All the while perusing Kenneth Cole's Awearness read.. and then picked up two from the library today... Sweet Waters by Julie Carobini and The Land of Green Plums Herta Muller (translated from German).

I read whenever I can, which hasn't been very often lately..
Stephen King. My all-time favorite is Christine, but I am working on collecting all his books.
Read the Harry Potter series, kept me entertained, but I don't think I'd ever read them again.
Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child have written some pretty interesting books. Unusual, but interesting.

I'm reading Ara Wilson's Intimate Economies of Bangkok: Tomboys, Tycoons, and Avon Ladies in the Global City.

Harry Potter

...some of you may be interested in this new book -- her name is Robin Sneed and you can find some of her writings on the Open Salon forum.

From what I read of her posts, it might be something to look into. I plan on it. (I don't know her!)

Here's the link to the book, but I would suggest reading her writings on OS first--she's good and gets some of us I think.

Flowergirls: A Mirroir

Right now I'm reading:

* Devil in the Details: Scenes from an Obsessive Girlhood by Jennifer Traig

* 18 Rules of Community Engagement: A Guide for Building Relationships by Angela Connor

* The Last Ship - Willam Brinkley

Just got done with Stephen King's new one, Under the Dome. Entertaining, I suppose, but he did the whole apocalyptic thing much better in The Stand, without the need for the eponymous hackneyed plot device.

Now: Imperial, by William T. Vollman. About Imperial County, CA and it's history of migrant workers/agriculture. Immigration. Water rights. How the American dream plays out in Mexico. Valid criticism: long on passion/personal details, short on facts/research. Fascinating nonetheless.

Up Next: American Fantastic Tales: Terror and the Uncanny from the 1940s to Now (Peter Straub, ed.)
