I just finished The Secret (well...I finished it over a month ago), Ember From The Sun by Mark Canter (wonderful book), Swan Song by Robert R. McCammon (one of my favorite books), and now I'm reading Others by James Herbert... so far it's pretty good.

I've been reading The Orphans of Chaos by John C. Wright and I'm really enjoying it. So much so that I've gone out and bought the next book in the series in hardcover, and ordered a copy of the third and final book. Lots of good reading ahead judging by how much I like this first book already.

I am reading the book "Energy Psychology." Very enlightening...combining metaphysical and psychological techniques for mental/physical/emotional/spiritual healing.

Beyond the Breath: Extraordinary Mindfulness Through Whole-Body Vipassana Meditation. I've just started it, but so far it's pretty interesting, and I can't wait to try it out.

i LOVE khaled hosseini. "kite runner" was brilliant! now i just started "a 1000 splendid suns" and immediately fell into it as well. i never read anything about afghanistan before and it`s interesting to read about the time before "everything" started.

Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West by Gregory Maguire. Actually very cool ideas, and written very poetically. Very different from the musical :p .

The Stand. One of my absolute favorites. And I prefer the uncut version to the full one. I may have to reread it soon.

I just bought Blaze. It's King's new one, published under the name Richard Bachman.
