    ^The fuck. :lol:

    I tend to inform myself about the movie I'm about to watch, but come on, not knowing there's a book? Wow.

    I haven't seen the film yet, I'm gonna read the trilogy before watching anything.

    I just finished reading Inferno by Dan Brown a while back: 3/5 It was decent but it's the weakest book in the series IMO.

    I just started Cuckoo's Calling by Robert Galbraith (J.K Rowling). It's pretty amazing till now.

    A Song of Ice and Fire - A Feast For Crows - George R. R. Martin.

    Also the The Walking Dead novels are awful. They're contrived and horribly written and uses adjectives after every other word. It's annoying as fuck.

    My favorite from the series. Just behind is "Mockingjay". Great books, though. Can't wait for the movies.

    Finished Catching Fire yesterday before going to sleep. Awesome. Katniss can be really stupid sometimes, though, it's annoying. :lol:

    I'm gonna start with Mockingjay tomorrow, it's a holiday today so I've got to wait till tomorrow for my mom to bring it from the library (she's a librarian).

    Trudi Canavan's Age of the Five. Finished two out of three books. Reading the third one now (Voice of the Gods). It's sooo good! Not as good as one of her other series, though, called The Black Magician! LOVE those books!

    Read Mockinjay ages ago (couldn't post because my post was last). Probably my favorite in the trilogy.

    I also finished The Amazing Story of Adolphus Tips by Michael Morpurgo today.

    I've been reading Book One of The Lord of the Rings (The Fellowship of the Ring, technically) here and there, on the computer.

    WORST CASE by James Patterson and Michael Ledwidge

    So, this is my first book from James Patterson. He's widely known for his Alex Cross series but this book is one of his Michael Bennett crime series. His writing style reminds me of John Grisham. I love the book because it is simply written and doesn't have too much cliche in it. I'm quite excited to read more of his Michael Bennett series.

    TERMINAL by Robin Cook

    Also my first time with this author but completely mesmerized of how he put so much twists in the story. Although, I have to admit they were some "nosebleed" parts esp. with medical terminology but indeed I felt like I was in a joyride reading it.

    Read the booklet that came with A Thousand Suns. Those lyrics are still too damn hard to read...
