    Crazy Love by Francis Chan. It's a good look int trying to comprehend God's crazy love for us and why we should be as crazy. It's wierd because I'm not usually into non-fiction novles.

    The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya by Nagaru Tanigawa. I said I was reading this before but I already finished it a week ago. The story is just so amazing that it has to be checked out a second time! Not only does this story have a message (in some wierd way) but the story is interesting and is the only Christmas themed story that actually talks about the real meaning of Christmas (which is ironic since this is the Suzumiya series).

    Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austin. Yet another attempt in reading this book. I'm two chapters in and all I get is the mom is trying to get her daughters married and pregnant by whatever man she sees. And this is a classic?! (don't kill me Misty!).

    Because of a deal I made with a girl, I'm reading Eclipse in exchange for her watching Howl's Moving Castle. Only two pages in and I don't like it, but I made a promise and I'm sticking to it. Any tips on entertaining myself whilst reading it? :lolface:

    Forgotten God by Francis Chan - I really liked his previous book, Crazy Love, and found it rather inspirational.

    Maximum Ride: The Angel Experiment by James Patterson - I've tried reading this book twice before, but there were so many distractions that I just couldn't finish it. Maybe since it's break, I can try to finish this book.

    Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by J.K. Rowling - I've decided to read through the Harry Potter seires before the final movie comes to the States in the summer. I've at least given myself some time to spread it out.

    Manga:
    The Manga Bible by Siku - One of my favorite new Christmas presents. The art is great and I love how it tells the many stories from the Bible.

    Did you finish it? c: It's wonderful, right?

    Right now I'm reading Adverbs by Daniel Handler. I'm not sure if I like it quite yet, his writing style bugs me a little, but I'm going to keep trying.

    PS, I Love You - Cecelia Ahern

    I'm only in a few pages but awh, I can tell -since I was told to read the book then watch the film, since the book is better apparently - that it's gunna be sad, it may even make me cry. I havn't really cried at a book since Marley and Me ;;

    Currently reading

    Ragtime by E.L. Doctorow: It covers American society during the early 1900's and offers a scope of what trials everyone was going through at the time (the formation of Unions, the rise of the Proletariat rebels, Old Money vs New Money, prejudice against immigrants, etc.) Personally, I really adore it :B

    A Prayer for the Dying by Stewart O'Nan: A book written completely in the second person point of view. It's basically a Job-esque story, but it revolves around the disease diptheria and the struggles of the local constable/preacher/undertaker, Jacob, to stop it.

    A Clockwork Orange.

    The slang in it is a paint to try to understand.

    I'm a few pages in to the first book of The Hunger Games, really like it so far. Granted I don't have that much time to read now, but I'm trying. xD

    As for manga, I'm catching up with Rin-ne.

    The Hunger games are amazing, I plan on rereading them after I've finished my book.

    I'm now reading Simon Pegg's autobiography: Nerd do well. (He's an english actor) I'm a few chapters in and it's really funny and I'm enjoying it, I've never really cared much for autobiographies but I got this one and I find it really interesting. He also put in between the chapters a fantasy story of him having to write the book xD.

    I wish I had more time to read as well but exams have stolen most of my time. I'm also currently reading Bleach manga.

    the dead on the gone by Susan Beth Pfeffer. Haven't been really reading it but every time I get the chance it's a real page turner. I liked life as we knew it so I just had to check out the second and third books.

    Le Morte d'Arthur, or one of the many versions of the Arthurian legend or the story of King Arthur haha. Pretty good thus far I'm about midway through, only downside is that the book is in old English so it's a ***** to read.
