Faux Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde in my school. I love how the whole world spoiled the story and made it common knowledge to know the entire mystery of it.

SanFranciscoGiants Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 I just finished The Once and Future King, by T.H. White in four days before school started. I'm now reading 1984, by George Orwell, which is an extremely easy read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently Reading: The Secret Adversary by Agatha Christie. I wanna read The Once and Future King, too, for ages! I have to remember to search for it at the library.

It didn't have the charm that Animal Farm did for me. I think the style of writing ties in with the theme quite well. It would be difficult for a book as cold as 1984 to have the charm of Animal Farm, since Animal Farm is purposefully close to a children's tale stylistically. La lune ne garde aucune rancune.

Trust me, no detail is tedious until you've read The Once and Future King, talk about excessive. I've already read Animal Farm, it was clever, but not my type of book.

urbestfreind Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 I'm currently reading "Java 2: A Beginner's Guide" by Herbert Schildt. "HTML and XHTML" by Patrick Casey I don't know if those two count, but I am reading them constantly, and I've carried the Java book to school with me for about a week, to read during downtime....Not exactly as fun as reading the Sword of Truth series, but it's a bit more useful IMO. For school I'm reading "Game Creation for Teens" by Jason Darby. It's for my Game Design class at the Vo-Tech. Well, reading and doing, since its basically a tutorial for The Games Factory 2, but it goes through quite a few terms and things that you need to know for designing games. [hide=Funny Quotes]So you sucker punched a kid in the back of the head? Good job.What scares me is that you're like 10 years old.-.- im not that freaking youngYou were a couple years ago.It's not racist if its true.Hmm... I wonder how one goes about throwing someone out a window in a mystic fashion :-k The mental image for that is freaking awesome.[/hide]- I dont need to "get a life."

Tim_Finch Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 I have about a chapter left to read in The Bellmaker, 7th book (chronologically) in the Redwall series. It'll be a while before I finish the series, 13 books left to read (didn't read the 4th and 6th book), with a new book being published each year. The series should at least last me through my senior year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
