After watching the movie, I picked up the first few novels and I thought they were fantastic and hilarious. Reminds me of the old Dr. Slump mangas from Akira Toriyama. I burnt through them pretty fast though, so hopefully I'll be able to pick up Volume 4 at some point.

Just finished reading the Watchmen comic novel, that was some mindfuck to say the least.

Recently started over the Wheel of Time series again, as I stopped reading it for a while once I got to the 10th book, and figured it didn't do it much justice to just start again without really knowing what's going on. 

Just finished the 2nd book (The Great Hunt), and have gotten a decent start on the 3rd book (The Dragon Reborn) in the last couple of days.  Something about the balance between everything in this series just makes me absolutely adore it.  The magic is absolutely fascinating, the relationships are marvelous (although I think they do get much better later on in the series), and other than the occasional wishing the series wasn't quite so long, I really do think its a masterpiece.

I sincerely hope that the 12th, 13th, and 14th books (which are written/to be written by Brandon Sanderson due to Robert Jordan's death), aren't too significant of a change in the series, as it really would be a let down to have the end of the series be so much different.

After I finish up on the currently written portion of this series, I'm intending on reading:

A Song of Ice and Fire

The Saga of Recluce

Harry Potter 1-7 (re-reading 1-6, have not yet read #7)

Along with a lot of others, but I seem to go on spurs where I will read 25-50 pages per day (such as now) and then times where I will go a couple months without reading...I'm hoping I can keep on my current pace because I have soooooo many books I want to read :)

The Wheel of Time started off great, but damn, it got so boring and it started to drag and then when I realised  I had like 12 more books to read in the series, I put it down and walked away.

A still need to read A Song of Ice and Fire and you should probably read the 7th Harry Potter book, especially when your probably the only one in the book reading world who hasn't yet.

Most people don't know what their favourite authors look like, so I'm just gonna post the hottest authors I know of.

J.K. Rowling: Despite her age, I would do such weird and glorious things to her and I can only pray that one day she gets a weird fetish that involves sleeping with young Lebanese guys with an Australian accent.

Joe Abercrombie: A new up and coming fiction writing superstar, his as handsome as Brad Pitt and has the mind of Eoin Colfer. His hot, he can write and he sets afire the loins of men and women.

Tasha Alexander: Dude, do you like history and shit? Then Tasha can hit you up! Tasha is the critically acclaimed author of 'A Poisoned Season' and 'And only to decieve' and she's also a pretty blonde. 

Jane Goldman: A prominent screen writer and author, Jane has written the cult hit 'Dreamworld' and also wrote the 'X-Files Book of the Unexplained'. Her red hair, open mind, large breasts and random dips into bisexuality make her a feisty lady and I'll just mention her breast again because they deserved to be mentioned.

Patrick Rothfuss: 'The Name of the Wind' conquered the fantasy novel world and this man was at the forefront of the march. Patrick is a fucking viking, his biceps bulge, his beard is unkempt and his eyes could seek out the deepest and darkest traits of your soul. You praise him, you give him sex, you give him food and hopefully you'll leave your encounter with both your arms still attatched to your shoulders.

Yea, with #7, I kinda figured as much, but similar to Wheel of Time, I want to re-read everything because it wouldn't do it justice to just pick it up and start reading it.

As for the Wheel of Time, I do think it slowly starts to get a little more boring each book.  But to compensate for that, the relationships, imo, get a little better each book, and some of the battles later on in the series are just plain amazing.  I also really think you should try reading it again, because once you get further into the series, despite a boring part here and there, there is always like 5 main plots and like 20 subplots going on that you want to know so badly how they will finish.

In regards to A Song of Ice and Fire...I've gotten like 50 pages in a couple times, but haven't tried very hard at all.  From what I've heard though, everybody says it blows The Wheel of Time away...although I am still just very addicted to the magic in The Wheel of Time.

The latest book I read I was...

Fabulous book. As charming as the movie.

Things I've learned from it:

- Americans are racist, whether they're from the South or fron the North (but the ones from the South are especially racist);

- Land is the most important thing ever;

- What appearently starts out like rape, can actually turn out to be the best sex ever;

- Black women can predict the hair colous of your future husband;

- The best couples are made up of people who are similar to eachother.

Been re-reading Raymond Feist lately. Alas, my copy of Magician is hundreds of miles north of here, in the hands of one of my friends!

I also have to finish my Eddings and Janny Wurts collection soon.
