So I recently finished the 6th Harry Potter book and am anticipating the release of the 7th. I am also looking forward to the release of the next movie, which is hopefully going to be great.
I just started reading the first Clan of the Cave Bear book, and so far it is pretty good. I saw the movie a long time ago, and can already agree with Katy that the book is much better.
I also want to read the Golden Compass books before the movie is released... in December I think. That is a book that Katy highly recommends if anyone is interested.
There are just too many books that I need to read... why is there not enough time to read some more Michael Crichton books, Kurt Vonnegut books, Dan Brown, Gregory Maguire (or any at all), and many more. Is it weird that I really want to read "A Brief History of Time" by Stephen Hawking and Origin of the Species by Darwin? Why do I want to read these as well as a few other odd books? simply beacuse they had such an important impact.
Its hard enough to keep up with current events and not to mention law school readings without trying to read all these books. So hopefully I will get a few out of the way this summer.
Good luck to all you with similar reading desires! (this seems to be a fairly common affliction)

Speaking of books I am about half way through 4, and 3/4 through another. One is particularly awesome I think you'd find it amusing, it's called, Kitchen Confidential. Add that to your list. :) I have purchased a few books, just because of the influence they have... I think it's important really. In terms of keeping up with news... well being with a social news blogger helps me, but I also get a nifty weekly e-mail update from the Economist. Also my new flashy iphone makes checking the news super fast and cool, and I can do it inbetween other things. It's awesome. I'm apple's B!T$#.
