What Good Books Have You Been Reading Lately?

I've been reading a few books: A Midsummer Night's Dream, Cat on A Hot Tin Roof, Daisy Miller, Queer Images, Nickel and Dimed and a book on the artist Jean-Michel Basquiat called Basquiat.

I'm finding Daisy Miller both nice to read, but also slow to read at the same time. I was reading A Midsummer Night's Dream in preparation for a play I was going to see with my bf, but we didn't end up seeing it. I still have to get around to finishing the last act of Cat On A Hot Tin Roof, but I want to do within one or two sittings.

I decided to buy Nickel and Dimed because I'm interested in how people get by on low incomes. I'm reading the book on Basquiat because he's one of my favorite artists.

thatgirl, good to hear that Y and Preacher are good. I'll have to get around to reading them at some point. I'm trying to catch up on the Thunderbolts and I want to read The Black Lantern saga that DC had going.

"How to Be Single" by Liz Tuccillo

For fans of Sex and the City. The author is a writer who worked on the show.
 
I just started the Scott's "Nicholas Flamel Series." So far so good. Tried to begin Christopher Rice's new one, "The Moonlit Earth," but it hasn't hooked me so far.

Graphic novel-wise, I finished "Preacher" and "Sandman," and I'm caught up in the "Fables" series. Also, I just read "Identity Crisis," and it blew me away. Currently, I'm working on "Crisis on Infinite Earths."
 
Pandy, good to know. I thought I was going crazy for a moment there. :lol:

Oledad, Identity Crisis was good. I also enjoyed Squadron Supreme. It's sort of a Marvel take on DC characters. It's pretty good. Also, read Watchmen if you haven't already.
 
The History of the Medieval World, from the Conversion of Condtantine to the First Cruade - Susan Wise Bauer. It's interesting to see a global approach to this time.

The Master and his Emissary, the Divided Brain and the Making of the Western World - Iain McGilchrsit.

Medium Raw, a Bloody Valentine to the World of Food and the People who Cook - Anthony Bourdain

very recommendable
 
Currently reading Chaos of the Senses by Ahlam Mostaghenami for my dissertation. For pleasure, I'm re-reading a couple of Agatha Chrsities: The Regatta Mystery and Other Stories and Ten Little N*****s. (Yes, the original title of And Then There Were None was none too PC, and yes, I'm reading an old edition with the original title. I'm curious to see if they whitewashed the story in any other way other than cleaning up the title.)
 
I'd be interested to know that as well LilBit. I enjoyed that book a lot.
 
Well, ravie-poo, that's disappointing. Here I was all excited, thinking that Dolly Bantry was reading naughty books under the covers... ;~)
 
The Ordeal of Gilbert Pinfold, Evelyn Waugh

and

some old school fantasy:

The Moon Pool, A. Merrit

The Worm Ouroboros, Eric Rucker Eddison
 
I just finished The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. I was told it was the next Harry Potter.

Not even close.

Not even the same universe. But Okay.
 
Oh how I wish I had a good book to read. Right now I'm just finishing up the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire by John Gibbons. It's more than 1,100 pages and not an easy read. But since I'm a history nut, it's listerally a rite of passage. I'm looking forward to reading Churchill's biography soon.
