The Spook's Destiny - I love the series
Spooks: I Am Grimalkin
Still reading Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy
Dean Koontz's Frankenstein

Yep those are the ones I read.
Next Five reads might be:Pillars of the Earth
The Poisonwood Bible
Little, Big
The Gunslinger (Dark Tower 1)
Dreams Underfoot
Might also check out The Hunger Games to see what the fuss is about - i'd never heard of it til the film came out.
I'm definately liking the sound of it, I'm going to see if I can pick up a copy on the next library trip.

I'm trying not to buy too many at the moment.... although I'm not doing very well ha ha! But i made the mistake with Twilight of buying the book to see what everyone was talking about and I didn't like it. so... will only vote with my purse once i've read the first one.
My next five booksMonster Hunter International (reading)
Wolf's Hour
Deep Fathom
The Star Rover
Boy's Life
I think...

Hunger games was very good King's dark tower is one of my favs read the first three books years ago the fourth could not get In to when it came out had a friend give me the series reread them couldn't put them down. Hated the end but getting there was fun good luck 8 big King books
Here's what I currently have out from the library (or from my own shelves)A Bitter Veil
Say Her Name: A Novel (audio book)
The Girl Who Married a Lion: and Other Tales from Africa
Othello
The Talented Mr. Ripley
Never Change
The Drop (audio)
Those should keep me busy for a week or so ...
Great Expectations with another group.Also a Nicholas Sparks novel, 'cause I need a really good cry. And, if A Discovery of Witches isn't chosen for our May read, then I might just read it myself because I'm really excited about it. I know that's not five, but that's as far ahead as I can think at the moment.
Hi All,Heaps of great suggestions from everyone. I've added quite a few to my ever growing list of books to read.
My next 5 are;
1. Manfield Park - currently reading
2. The Lady in the Rivers - Phillipa Gregory - currently reading as well.
3. My next new book - The Elegance of a Hedgehog
4. When God was a Rabbit
5. Catching fire
Fingers crossed I can keep to that...
I have so many books in my to-read-list that I don't know which one read next. But I think I'm going to finish the Fifty Shades Triology and Hunger Games Trilogy.

I only started reading it because it was a bestseller and thought I should give it a try.
The next books I plan on reading are:
The City of Fallen Angels
Uglies
One Day
Along Came a Spider

So far I like him but when the story start to get darker maybe I won't like him anymore.

Just got home from work and was thinking about this thread. What am I reading next? Walked to the bookshelf to find the next book, and guess what I stumbled upon? Next, by Michael Crighton. I'm taking it as a sign...
My next five books are:1) Phillipa Gregory - the lady of the rivers (currently reading)
2)kazuo Ishiguro - never let me go
3)the white woman on the green bicycle - monique rofley
4) Malorie Blackman - Knife Edge
5) The Hunger Games (because the movie was so good and I hear the books are even better)
Never Let me go is on the 1001 books to read before I die list...you should make your own personal list :)
Is it at all creepy? My dad watched the film and I saw about 10 mins of it and it seemed a bit weird and depressing.
I would definatly not describe it as "creepy". It isnt that style of book, it is presented in a stark, almost sad sort of way and some parts were very moving. It depends on what you would call "wierd". It's bacically a story written in memories of a girl who was a clone and lived to give away her vital organs, and it's sort of about how she pieced together the facts about what was happening. I definatley think you should give it a read!
I think that A Tale of Two Cities will have to wait for a later time.....I have so many new books that I'm anxious to read. That's the only amendment I'm making to my next reads. I'm not yet sure what book will be read in it's place though.
Hi all! I think my next five books will be:
1. The Scarlet Lion by Elizabeth Chadwick
2. Clockwork Angel (Infernal Devices) by Cassandra Clare
3. Wolfskin by Juliet Marillier
4. Fever (Chemical Garden Trilogy) by Lauren DeStefano
5. The Dark Mirror by Juliet Marillier
I wanna read Fever so bad! I loved Wither!
Wither was so good! Loved it! I'm excited to read Fever and find out what happens! As for A Clockwork Angel, I'll admit I was drawn to it based on the cover :). But, I have heard good things!
Got to be (because they have been sitting on the shelf too long):"Reamde" by Neal Stephenson
"Snuff" by Terry Pratchett
"Things We Didn't See Coming" by Steven Amsterdam
"Rome" by Robert Hughes
"Human Croquet" by Kate Atkinson
Well, I only planned THREE books ahead, and have already violated the schedule. I completely skipped the Nicholas Sparks book, jumped right in to a Deborah Harkness novel, and have checked out a Stephen King novel from the library which was screaming at me that it needed to be put next in line...
