Wuthering Heights. A new and edited edition actually. The violence in the book is still astounding. I did not realise how much the Brontes were influenced by Byron.
 
Mark of Athena by Rick Riordan. I hate how he ends his books, but it sets up the next book so well I can excuse him for that. Being a bit mythology buff, I like how he takes all of the myths from old and turns them into something interesting, funny, and serious at times.
 
Its the continuation of the Percy Jackson series. I like pretty much everything he writes for teens. Its all really interesting how he turns the myths of old and makes them modern.
 
Myself a Mandarin, by Austin Coates. It's an account of his time as a special magistrate in Hong Kong. There's some interesting stuff in there. I really enjoyed it.
 
Tales From the Perilous Realm... it's been great reading through Tolkien's lesser known writings.

Next up I think I'll tackle Team of Rivals before going to see Lincoln.
 
Just finished Spell of the Highlander by Karen Marie Moning. Still reading Rasputin's Bastards by David Nickle :)
 
Me Before You by Jo Jo Moyes...

Only because I got it free on my e reader...over emotional chick lit shit...but not badly done I suppose...it passed a couple of unchallenging hours and didn't sell out at the end...

I won't be reading any more of her stuff...free or not...
 
Re-read the Hobbit right after seeing the movie this holiday, just to remind myself how it tracked with Jackson's film.

I'm not really a one-book at a time person (I like the variety of skipping around a bit), so at the moment I'm at varying stages of completion through Conrad's Lord Jim, Xenophon's Hellenika, and Theodore Dalrymple's Life at the Bottom. Oh, and a book of John Donne's poetry.
 
Eighth edition of "Two-Stroke Motor Cycles and Autocycles",by the staff of The Motor Cycle,Nov.1941
 
The Insanity File: The Case of Mary Todd Lincoln by: Mark E. Neely Jr. and R. Gerald McMurtry
 
I think I'll hunt down a copy of, The Once and Future King it's been a good decade since I spent anytime with Wart et al
 
Hiroshima by John Hersey. It's one of those rare books that made me cry when I finished it, the only other one to do that has been To Kill A Mockingbird.
 
A book a girlfriend gave me for Christmas.

Some series called Immortals After Dark by Kresley Cole....I think that's the name.

Anyhow, it's not really my kind of genera, but the sex was hot as hell.
