Lightbulb OT: What are you reading?

Pagan or not pagan related?

I have been REALLY enjoying the "Mistborn" series by Brandon Sanderson! It's actually keeeping me away from some other things I wanted to read!

I just finished "Understanding the Thoth Tarot" by Lon Milo Duquette and really enjoyed the tone and explanations.

I've been trying to get around to finishing my Arcana Mundi as well as Comparative Mythology by Jaan Puhvel, which I've had on the backburner for a while.

Anyone else have some good recommendations for something thought provoking? (Or at least entertaining?)

Don't laugh, but I'm finishing up the Percy Jackson series. Meh, I like young fantasy for some reason, lol!

I'm also reading The Witch's God: Lord of the Dance, by Janet and Stewart Ferrar. Very interesting insights into how the God is seen, and has been seen and understood, throughout history. I thought it might help me understand and identify more.

Er, anyone else like Harry Potter? Or maybe Drizzt Do'Urden?

Duckchick, I love Harry Potter!

I just finished the most recent Wheel of Time book (what is it, #12? 13? LOL) by Brandon Sanderson and Robert Jordan (RIP). I was pleasantly stunned by how good it was, cause the last 2-3 books in the series were dull and drag-gy.

OOO!! Anne McAffery Rocks!!

Xirene, I've heard Wheel of Time is awesome. I think I've read book one, and that's it. And that was a loooooong time ago, lol! Last book I read was Salvatore's The Ghost King, which made me very sad at the end, but finished up a great series of books. Orc King is my favorite, still, lol!

You know, I'd do anything to have an excuse to visit Hogwarts again! A fresh visit! Hopefully soon I can visit the theme park!

Aahh, The Mists of Avalon! A truly deep and feminine book!

Just picked up Shadow over Baker Street, a Sherlock Holmes meets Cthulu type book by various authors. I know it sounds cheesy, but it was authorized by the Conan Doyle estate, and the first story is good so far. Prolly cause it was written by Neil Gaimen.

Shadow over Baker Street -- I read this a while ago and really enjoyed it! But I forgot what the name was so I haven't been able to get a copy. Thanks! haha.

You guys have the best taste in books.

I'm moving onto the Odd Thomas series by Dean Koontz. Or a series my friend lent me by Jane Lindskold.

I just recently picked up "The Goddess is in the Details" by Deborah Blake, so far I like it, and it makes me think.
