Last book finished: A Separate Peace by John Knowles
I had to read it for english class, and I HATED it. Barely anything happened in it.
Currently reading: Magic's Pawn by Mercedes Lackey
I really like it, and I can't wait till I finish it so I can read the next two books.
Plan to read: Magic's Promise and Magic's Price also by Mercedes Lackey
Like I said, I can't wait to read them.

Currently reading "The Almost Moon" by Alice Sebold. Reeeeally odd so far, but that seems to be how Miss Alice rolls.

I'm about 2/3 of the way through George Orwell's 1984 at the minute. I can see why it is a classic, I'm really enjoying it.
At first I thought it was overly-philosophical, but as the story progresses, it all works really nicely.

I'm reading a biography of the musician and record producer Brian Eno. It gets a bit over-technical at times, but it's an entertaining read and I'm enjoying reading about his time producing some of Talking Heads best albums.

Right now I'm reading the fourth installment to the House of Night series by PC Cast and Kristin Cast called Untamed. The story is really good and cannot wait to see what happens next!

Dr No by Ian Fleming.
It is quite clearly a classic, with chigroes and dragons.
It's very good, very different from the movie, but still good.

Currently reading: The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck
I despise this book, body, heart, and soul. I think John Steinbeck is an incredibly talentless writer. (Or was, rather. He is thankfully dead and can no longer ruin the world with his awful writing.) All of his books seem to focus too much on "the American Dream" and extreme attention to detail rather than things that actually have a chance of catching one's interest.
Last book I read: Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher
Really depressing, but I loved it. And I just now realized how long it's been since I last read an actual novel... This was about a month ago, at least. :(
Plan on reading: I dunno, actually. I haven't been thinking about reading for a while now, sadly. Maybe I'll find some books that have been adapted into movies. Eh.

Last book I read:
LOTR: The Two Towers.
Can't help it, I am a sucker for LOTR, and this is like my 5th time reading through this book. Can't help it. It's good.
Current reading:
Mannen Som Elsket Yngve[directly translated, ''The Man Who Loved Yngve''.
I have no idea how to explain my feelings around this book. It is indeed one of the best books I've ever read, quite gay, but nonetheless. It's simply awesome.
Plans to read:
Way to A smile(or w/e it's called)
That FF VII book about Denzel, Tifa and Cloud. I actually downloaded this book from somewhere, and I've been putting it for a century. So I guess I have to read it soon

I'm about to continue finishing various books, based on the Starcraft PC game, developed by Blizzard Entertainment. These include novelised versions of particular missions in the game and completely canon additions to the series, written by impartial authors. Thus far, they are excellent addition to my collection.
