You know, I read just about everything I had on my list. Luckily, there is more. Soon will be D.Gray-Man volume 4 but perhaps not for a while, so for now I might go with The Salmon of Doubt by Douglas Adams.

let me light up the sky, light it up for you
let me tell you why, i would die for you
When you whisper, you must be absolutely as sincere as when you scream. 9 out of every 10 problems in relationships can be solved by talking. So why are we so damn quiet?

Dante's Divine Comedy. Part one: Inferno.
~Where death is I am not, where I am death is not, so we never meet~
I'd rather die terrified
than live forever.
We will all die so gloriously, that having ever lived will seem like folly.

This would surprise some people, but I'm currently reading Twilight. I think it is horribly written, but I'm forcing myself to get through it.

I just finished Thomas Paine's Age of Reason, and now I'm reading Dawkins' The God Delusion. I'm really liking both, and I'm going to read Bertrand Russel's essays after I'm done with Dawkins.
Not around so much now that school's started
"Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by. If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones." Marcus Aurelius

I'm reading The Great Gatsby right now by F. Scott Fitzgerald. It's alright so far.

The Rebel and the Rose. I'm about a third through it, and it's actually pretty good for a PWP.  My girlfriend left in my room as a playful joke last time she was over; a week ago we were chatting about our various book collections and she eluded to keeping a few trashy romance novels tucked away where her mum's not too likely to find them. I am greatly entertained reading it. 
The atoms that make up you and me were born in the hearts of suns many times greater than ours, and in time our atoms will once again reside amongst the stars. Life is but an idle dalliance of the cosmos, frail, and soon forgotten. We have been set adrift in an ocean whose tides we are only beginning to comprehend and with that maturity has come the realization that we are, at least for now, alone. In that loneliness, it falls to us to shine as brightly as the stars from which we came.

I'm reading The Importance of Being Earnest right now, as well as the earlier mentioned Gatsby. I'm a few pages into Crank as well.

I never really finished the other book I was reading (Atlas Shrugged). School takes up too much time, I'll get to it in the winter.
Now I'm reading this for school, which is pretty good and really messed up.

I just finished reading the Outsiders by S.E Hinton i think,and just finished readind The rules of survival by nancy werlin.Currently reading The Odyssey for school,i started reading The great gatsby,and i mid way through a lot of other books i cant even name right now 
Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice. Cut free since March 6th 2013 Purge free since March 8th 2013
