    Ive read almost all the books by RE Feist - and they are all great. Currently waiting for his latest trilogy to be fully published as I hate waiting for books to finish my series.

    The Wasp Factory (brillant)
    The Catcher In the Rye (ok)
    Meditations on First Philosophy (ok)

    All for school
    I really would like to look at some Lovecraft, and I've been intending to continue finishing the Dark Tower series off for about 9 months now (but I may as well start again now).

    When i was away this past week i read "Die Trying" by Lee Childs and finished "Peat Smoke and Spirit (A portrait of Islay and its whiskies)" by Andrew Jefford.

    Just started "Composite Materials: Engineering and Science" but thats a work book and terribly dull.

    Not sure what i'll read next, got a couple of dozen in my unread pile

    Just finished Perfume by Patrick Shushkin (sp?). It's about a fella around the 1780s who can smell the tiniest things. He's also a bit loopy. I'll say no more except that I recommend it highly. I think the film is out in December.
    An Atlantean Triumvirate, Ghosts of the Past, The Centre Cannot Hold
    The Pillars of Britain, Foundations of the Reich, Cracks in the Pillars.

    My books are available here for Amazon Kindle. Feedback always welcome!
