I found the Harry Potter series in ebook format online. It's awesome! There's a few typos, but otherwise it's perfect.

I love reading book one again. I haven't had the chance to read them in a long time because when I moved out of my dad's house, I never got them back. I miss my hardcovers. Frown
i have them if you want me to send them to you. they don't have errors iirc

True Strength: My journey from Hercules to mere mortal and how nearly dying saved my life - Kevin Sorbo

Had an aneurism, suffered a stroke, permanent loss of some vision in both eyes. Easy read, inspiring, down to earth.

Let's see, in the last couple of weeks: the entire Mistborn [wikipedia.org] trilogy (I know he *just* released a 4th book but it's only been out like a week) by Brandon Sanderson...

Little Fuzzy [wikipedia.org]by H. Beam Piper (2 days, quick read, cute).

and now I'm on to Slaughterhouse-Five [wikipedia.org] by Kurt Vonnegut (just started yesterday).

woot

I heard really good things about that book, and that he fought through a lot of the after-effects of the stroke while filming Hercules actually.

A Storm of Swords. I think it is book 3 of the series beginning with A Game of Thrones.

I'm surprised that I'm still reading it. Throughout book one I thought the only way I could get through it was because of the show. I wasn't a fan of the way it is written. But now I don't care about how it is written, and I just want to get to the good parts...

Yeah an interviewer was like, "So I'm sure everyone wondered where you disappeared to over the years." Facepalm Sorbo never stopped working.

Finished REAMDE by Neal Stephenson recently. It was very good, but a VERY long book. I guess that's his style though; a very complex plot with an abundance of details, which some consider useless filler.

Now reading The Litigators by John Grisham. Typical Grisham, enjoying it as usual.

Bedtime reading on my Kindle is another book in the Morganville Vampire series. Got to read my fluff stories, and these are great when I'm really tired and not really able to concentrate on anything too serious. laugh out loud

Also have Catching Fire (book 2 of Hunger Games), can't wait to start that and see how it continues.

Finished Slaughterhouse-Five and started Guns, Germs and Steel [amazon.com] which I thought would be semi-boring but it's actually already grabbed my attention. I hope the author can keep it! laugh out loud
