OT: What ELSE are you reading?
Dropped 21
days but I'd love to get some good recommendations to put on "the pile"
After I finish DT 6 I will probably wait to get DT 7 as a gift (yeah, if i
can hold out!) So maybe i'll be able to squeeze in a book or 2 :o)

Just started reading 'Fleshmarket Close'. After the journey to the
Dark Tower (greatly enjoyed) I needed to get back to the streets (and
closes) of Edinburgh 8:)

I Just finished DTVII and right before that I also read Skinny Dip by Carl
Hiaasen.
Prior to that I read Dune: Battle of Corrin.
Not sure what I'll read next, but I have several lined up...

I'm reading the "Black Company" series. Just finished "Shadows
Linger", which wasn't the best thing I've ever read, but wasn't bad.
The first book was the best. Now I have to find myself a copy of THE
WHITE ROSE.

hmm. You've left me with no answer to that question without
seeing the pictures.
Now I *really* have to go looking for the book
Scoot
Never read any of the books in the series, but because I so enjoyed the film
adaptations, I felt a certain responsibility to return to the source material
and read it the way Robert Ludlum created Jason Bourne...
