    Well I remember there used to be a thread about books a long while back, I can't locate it and search function didn't reveal any other threads nor did the first three pages of the lounge. So guys....

    1) What are you currently reading?
    2) What are your favorite books?
    3) Who are your favorite authors?
    4) Favorite genre?
    5) Release you are looking forward to?

    Personally I will take a good book over a movie any day. I just finished "The End Of Eternity" by Isaac Asimov and have to say it was a great book. I'm a sci-fi reader mostly. My favorite authors are Frank Herbert, Isaac Asimov, Michael Crichton, Richard Matheson, and Koji Suzuki just to name a few. My favorite book series would be the Dune series by Frank Herbert, favorite book of the series is "God Emperor Of Dune". I also loved the Enders Game series even though the author Orson Scott Card is a grade A tool.

    Anyway I know some of you out there HAVE to read, so fire away.

    Besides reading H Potter to my kid, I haven't read a book for myself in 9 years. Pathetic, but hoping to get back to reading next year
