    I myself am reading more than one book lol. I know I hsouldj sut stick to one book but hey like my thinking and writing I jump around a lot.

    I am currently reading four books and one magazine.
    The magazine is Alfred Hitchcock Mystery magazine September 2009

    the books are
    The latest Harry Potter though I'm not really into that one at the moment.
    Kingdom Keepers II Disney At Dawn by Ridley Pearson
    Forensics A guide For Writers by D.P. Lyle, M.D. (part of the howdunit series and yes for some reason it's spelled that way lol)
    and the one I am really into and enjoying
    Catch as Cat Can by Rita Mae Brown and Sneaky Pie Brown.
    (this one is posted in one of my hubs but no not trying to have ppl read my hub just saying in case those who had read it notcied that) And the unique thing about this authro is she writes great mystery where cats and a dog help solve the mysterys with their human companion. And not only that but Sneaky Pie Brown is her cat that she writes along side with. How cool is that?

    n-e-ways what is everyone else reading these days?

    haha i thought i was the only one who did that!

    i'm not reading any at the moment, but one time i read 1984, Farnham's Freehold and Get Fuzzy during the same month. that was strange, to say the least  - especially when i momentarily confused O'Brien with Chubby Huggs wink

    I am about to finish Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand and it's probably the best book I've ever read.

    I'm reading, "True At First Light," published posthumously by Ernest Hemingway.  His son Patrick helped to get his original journals from when they lived in Africa.  So far, so good.
