    I finally finished Wicked a few days ago and I have to say it was incredible. I don't know if it was better than the musical or right on point. There was so much story and plot and so many different things going on and I was swept away.

  5. All Quiet on the Western Front... so glad I wasn't forced to read it in high school, there's so much to dissect and pick apart.

    The Sense of an Ending by Julian Barnes. Somewhat disappointed by it.

    My Sister's Keeper, and it's overtaken The Time Traveler's Wife as the saddest book I've ever read. I cried a lot.

    Really good thread. I'm reading 3 books right now. Dark Visions, Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone (For the 8th time), and Dark Triumph. Dark Visions and Dark Triumph are REALLY good so far!!!

    Just finished Little Brother by Cory Doctorow. Was a pretty interesting book, basically about this group of teenage hackers in a near-future San Fransisco, where the government is basically spying on everyone and everything.

    Would recommend, I actually learned some cool things about computer software and the like from reading it. Pretty serious for a Young Adult novel, though.

    I've started reading City Of Bones ( since the movie has comed out) and I sorta wanted to read the book before I watch the movie.
