I need a book of literary merit that has been turned into a movie. No Pride and Prejudice, no Eyes Were Watching God... Recommendations? I suggest All Quiet On the Western Front.  BTW- I just finished 1984. Spooky. :unsure: |

If you read Catcher you can watch the movie Finding Forrester (which we're watching in school). At least the movie seems interesting... so far. |

Gah, almost two months and no posts in this thread.  Anyhow, I'm currently reading Stardust by Neil Gaiman. Previously to that I read Neverwhere, also by Neil, which was quite good. And before that, I read A Game of Thrones by George RR Martin - the first in the A Song of Ice and Fire series, and a very good book. Can't wait to order & read the next two in the series. |

I'm half-way though that one; make sure you read the other two books, and the Empire trilogy as well.
Which reminds me, there's a city in Magician called Yilith, but that's probably just coincidence.
Probably.

Yeah, I've got the other two also. (Only paperback versions of them though, whilst Magician is a special-edition hardback.)
Haven't got the Empire trilogy, but I'll probably order it in a months time to fulfil my bookclub commitment thingy.

Bah, no-one else reading anything? Hmm... well, I'm reading a National Geographic book (printed in the 60's!) about the Age of Chivalry, if that counts... I never knew that the ancient Persian god of light was named Mithras (the one thing I've learned in 200 pages). |

Been reading the Demon Wars series by R.A. Salvatore. I was a little skeptical when i got them for christmas, but they are good. typical fantasy with an ungodly ranger and his lover who's the most beautiful person ever..blah you know, but still, i love Salvatore's development

Wow, several months since my last post in here.
Finished the first three in the Riftwar Saga & have got the Riftwar/daughter of empire trilogy but not yet read it, because I'm currently reading ASoiaF book 3.
Not sure what I'll read after that - I've got so many unread books, which is both good and bad. :wacko:
