Once exams are over (that's Thursday for me) I'm planning on reading A Long Way Gone--Memoirs of a Boy Soldier by Ishmael Beah. It's a newer book, so I'll only have a week to read it from the library which works out well because then I won't have the opportunity to not read Reading Lolita in Tehran for bookclub.

Cat's Cradle. And I'm going to start Reading Lolita in Tehran and possibly my HP re-read. I love not being in school!

I'm still reading Breakfast Of Cahmpions by Kurt Vonnegut and I've also started rereading Persuasion by Jane Austen. Two very different books!

I started Reading Lolita in Tehran today for the book club. I'm about 50 pages in and absolutely loving it, the writing is beautiful.
