Just finished "God Bless You, Dr. Kevorkian" by Vonnegut.
Short but wonderful. I highly suggest it.

I'm about 50 pages into Breakfast of Champions now.

I always meant to read David Brin's Uplift series, so I am.

Just finished "Wolves of the Calla" by Stephen King. One of the best Dark Tower/Gunslinger books so far.

I'm now reading Ringworld Engineers. The first book gripped me. The idea of building a ring around the sun 93 million miles in radius and have the ring itself 1 million miles wide is amazing. Will we as a species ever accomplish an engineering achievement on that scale? I hope so.

I CAN'T WAIT FOR HARRY POTTER! I WILL FINISH IT IN 1 DAY! not go to work, see friends, leave my room. Hopefully I can hold my bladder until I'm done and my sister can deliver food to my room. I'm not currently reading it, but it is MUCH anticipated.

Well, you didn't let Harry Potter engulf your literary childhood, like I did. And I don't regret it.
