Someone recommended I read "A Canticle for Leibowitz" by Walter M. Miller Jr. I had been working on it about 3 months and I just remembered I had it.
Has anyone here read it?

I just re-read Ender's Game along with my 12 year-old. It holds up very well I just hope the movie is decent.

Just started reading Dust by Hugh Howey, it's the conclusion to the Silo Saga. The first 2 parts were Wool and the Shift Series, it's been a great read all they way thru. Definitely worth reading.
-
I can only read picture books. Anything past that is too difficult for me.

I just finished Shada by Douglas Adams. A Doctor Who story based on an unfurled episode also written by DA.
It was like coming home as I always enjoyed the Hitchhiker series.

I have just started reading Windows Server 2012 Unleashed and I have definitely been hooked on it for the past two weeks now.
I cannot wait until I get into Chapter 16: Migration from AD 2008 to 2012. Especially the compatibility Testing. :drool
Now please don't let out any spoilers, and ruin any fun I will be having. :cheers:

Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell. Not only is it great, but the guys who did Sherlock for BBC are turning it into a mini-series that will air in 2014, so you better get the book in now before they spoil it for you.

The Walking Dead TPB vol 18

The only reading I do is in J-RPG's. ;D
no, i'm kidding: I'm reading through Masters of Doom, the story of John Carmack and John Romero's success.
I've been on a non-fiction buzz this year.

I just finished The Cuckoo's Calling by Robert Galbraith (J.K. Rowling). Absolutely fantastic book.

Yeah, I enjoyed it, but even at the time, some of it felt really forced. PBJ had a great breakdown of the book a while back.
