I haven't really started a new book. I am kinda swinging back and forth between reading Horns by Joe Hill and A Clash of Kings by George R R Martin. Both books I have already read partly, but I just haven't ever gotten all the way through yet. Not for lack of interest...I just get caught up in other things and then read a shorter book or comic in between.

On my tumblr I ask for book recommendations, and they come sporadically, haven't gotten one in a while. I got this one today,

Read: the perks of being a wallflower Any of the discworld novels by sir terry pratchett His dark materials

I have read The Perks of Being a Wallflower a few times. I read it first during high school and most recently right before seeing the movie. I have also read other diary-type books along the same line. Two that come right to mind are Go Ask Alice and It Happened to Nancy: By an Anonymous Teenager. I was really into these types of books as a kid/teenager. 

I have also read His Dark Materials. I have always been into kids fantasy and stuff, and so this was right up my alley, plus all the drama surrounding the Golden Compass when it come out in theaters really made me want to read it. I really enjoyed it.

I haven't read the Discworld novels at all, haven't even really heard much about them, but I am definitely interested in checking them out! I am sure I would like it, I read Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman, and I really loved it...but Neil Gaiman is my favorite.

I am so looking forward to making time to read...just have to make it happen. Maybe instead of reading a book in a day or two and staying up really late, I can just give myself an hour a day to read. It will take longer, but I am more likely to stick to something like that.
