I'm rereading Cursed Child, i think a year or so after i first read it. Looking forward to reading it again after having seen it on stage last year.
I also make wand profiles for Harry Potter characters, those without an official wand, so looking back for any characters with enough information to come up with a profile.
And it's almost Harry's birthday!

Demon Road by Derek Landy as a rec from a friend. Likeable teenage protagonist, demons and other supernatural stuff. Definitely recommend it to others.

Krista, are you reading to your newborn or do you just enjoy classic children's stories?


Reading to newborn.

I do not like green eggs and ham
I do not like them here or there
I do not like them anywhere
I do not like them Sam I Am.


I imagine your newborn wouldn't understand any of the books I'm about to mention below, although it would be hilarious if you tried, but I guess the books with mostly visual images is a good way of introducing young children to reading. ^_^

As for the books I have read, here's the most recent in the past month or so:

A Streetcar Named Desire by Tennessee Williams
Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell
Net Force by Tom Clancy
Dreams From My Father by Barack Obama
Return to Canafis by T.S Church
Brave New World by Aldous Huxley
The Science of Discworld by Terry Pratchett, Ian Stewart and Jack Cohen
Elder Scrolls: Lord of Souls by Greg Keyes

There's also other great books I have read in the past too worth reading, which I'll mention below:

The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck
Under The Dome by Stephen King
Moby Dick by Herman Melville
A Game of Thrones by George R.R Martin
The Hobbit by J.R.R Tolkien
Gone With The Wind by Margaret Mitchell
Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson
Lord of the Flies by William Golding
To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee
Dante Inferno by Dante Aligheiri
Red Mars by Kim Stanley Robinson
The Godfather by Mario Puza

I'm sure there are plenty of other fantastic novels out there that I've yet to discover and read, but I've got plenty of reading ahead of me at any rate! :)

Speaking of novels, I'm surprised nobody here has mentioned the Runescape Books written by T.S Church yet. (Asides from myself in my previous post ;) )

Figured it would be interesting to discuss that on this thread here, since a lot of the current lore in RS3 ties into the books as well as some characters that came originally from it. ^_^

can you confirm or deny whether the runescape books are in fact canon?

Well done if you can read a Stephen King book without skipping pages.
