Tell everyone what you're reading and, if you so choose, give us a synopsis, your opinion, etc.
------
I'm currently reading Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë. Although several of the characters are quite horrid, I've been almost unable to put it down. It's addictive! Then again, I (inexplicably) have quite a penchant for 19th century literature.

Since my last post I've read North and South by Elizabeth Gaskell, The Invisible Man by H. G. Wells, and Crooked Little Vein by Warren Ellis, and I'm now reading The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King by J. R. R. Tolkien.
Aren't there any other readers in this group? blaugh

I'm reading Great Expectations by Charles Dickons O.o
Yeah, my teacher saw me reading it and she's all like "O.O ARE YOU READING THAT FOR FUN?!?!?" And I'm just like "O.o yeeeeeaaaahhh..."
Apparently that book is like supposed to be way above mah grade level and i'm a really smart person >w< (P.s. I'm a lot younger than you think I am 0.o)
I think it's a uber good book and I really liek the wasy Charles Dickons writes and stuffs >w<

Currently reading Dante's inferno. The guy who did the translation for this is great, and he's written notes for every canto.

'Gone With the Wind' by Margarent Mitchell. I like how the book goes into detail about the lives and the hardship of the southerns during the Civil War and the Reconstruction of the South, something that always been skipped over during history class. Don't like the angel/devil thing with the slaves that stayed and the ones that left, though. And I don't know if I like Scarlett or to slap her silly. Maybe both.
