More Books

Susan reminded me that I forgot a book in the last update: Making Money, by Terry Pratchett, which was amusing, as his books always are. I recently read a few of the Stephanie Plum novels by Janet Evanovich--they're funny but pulp. There was also another Carl Hiaasen book--Double Whammy; I enjoyed it. I'm reading Bacardi and the Long Fight for Cuba: The Biography of a Cause, by Tom Gjelten; it is a tough slog, so far.

I should say, that's pretty rare for me... I love nonfiction, so I never expect not to be intrigued from the start.

Any recommendations?

I just read Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card for the first time recently. I loved it, and am now on the third book in his series, Xenocide.
Someone reccommended to me Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson so I will start that soon.
I will say though, I am almost through with my "vampire phase" of books, thanks no doubt to my obsession with True Blood, which is a good thing because Twilight is an awful, awful story. And yes, I am reading it! Sookie Stackhouse, Anne Rice, et al, I am chugging down as much Sci-Fi and Vamp books as I can get this summer!
