Right now I am reading:

Into Temptation by Penny Vincenzi (Final book in her Spoils of Time trilogy) - pure escapism!

High Noon: The Inside Story of Scott McNealy and the Rise of Sun Microsystems, and

The Power of Now - How Winning Companies sense and Respond to Change Using Real-Time Technology


So what are YOU reading?????

Might be hard to find.... I'll look around for it here too...

Here's the info:
http://us.imdb.com/Title?0078341

Edit: HOLY COW! half.com has it for 38 dollars (that's the cheapest!). Guess it depends on how much you reeeeeally want to see it.

Check the video store. They may have it.

I just borrowed these 3 books from the library today. Two fiction and one non-fiction.

A Means to Evil by John Trenhaile

Hand in Glove by Robert Goddard

And lastly, The Complete Idiot`s Guide to Chosing, Training, and Raising a Dog by Sarah Hodgeson
(No, I am not planning on getting another dog! I got this book because it looks like a fun read, and, although I have owned and trained a number of dogs in my time, I reckon I am still not to old or set in my ways to learn something new. Especially where getting Bob to behave is concerned!:D)

I also got the lastest issues of Your Dog and Your Cat magazines.....yikes, I don`t know where to start!
:D :D

I am currently reading Distant Shores by Kristin Hannah. This is the second book I have read by this author. I love these book threads because they give me ideas of some good books that I might not hear about otherwise.

I just finished "Naked Empire" by Terry Goodkind...don't get wierd about the title, it's a perfectly harmless fantasy book.

Currently I'm re-reading Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. :)

I'm reading "Ashes to Ashes," by Tami Hoag. I pretty much just "judged the book by it's cover" when choosing it at the store... I was in a hurry. It's ok. It'd be better if every other word wasn't a curse word.

I just finished "The Golden Compass" by Phillip Pullman for school, and I'm now reading comic books, because I think I will explode if I have to read anything else serious. Specifically, I just bought "It's a Dog's Life Snoopy" by Charles Schulz and I'm re-re-re-re-re-reading " Seven Years of Highly Defective People" by Scott Adams.

The Hidden Life Of Humans *I think..* It's about a lady and a dog who both have trust issues..well maybe not really the dog..its a weird book however..the story is told by both the lady and the dog..
