I started reading Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton a few days ago. Pretty excellent so far :)

I finished reading Jurassic Park. Excellent read. I liked that Ian Malcolm talked about everything awesome a lot more in comparison to the film version where they had to cut a lot of his dialogue out. The novel has quite a few differences in it when compared to the movie adaption. There are scenes in the 2nd movie which were actually in the book. Also, Alan Grant likes kids, but in the movie he does not like kids... is that not a bit strange?

I have been reading The Return of the King by J.R.R. Tolkien for a little while now. I think it's probably the thickest book in the series.

challenge accepted right? ;D

I've been reading Hawke's Green Beret Survival Manual. Freaking epic book. Basically how to survive in the most hardcore of places.

Fan of Bear Grylls playa? I used to watch his show when it was first airing, but I kinda lost touch with it o.o;

I recently read Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell. I really liked it. It's nice to know where the 2 + 2 = 5 thing came from that has been replicated in movies and other media. I now know where Picard's four lights scene from Star Trek took inspiration from! Not to mention the whole Big Brother thing.

I'm currently reading The War of The Worlds by H.G. Wells. Though I am eager to get stuck into the Game of Thrones series soon. I think the books will be a lot more enjoyable than the TV series.
