Grupper50 Book Challenge, Banned Books, Children's Fiction, College Students, King's Dear Constant Readers, Readers Under 30, What Are You Reading Now?, What do you recommend?

Om mig I've loved reading ever since I was old enough to know the alphabet, and am currently pursuing a degree in English with an emphasis on creative writing at Lake Forest College. I never used to enjoy what most people call "the classics," thanks to my high school's obsessive focus on "active reading," although I am starting to appreciate classic literature more and more in college, thanks to my Ancient & Medieval Lit course. However, I still strongly prefer popular fiction over a dense classic - hence the large number of Stephen King novels in my library.

Besides all that, I'm a sophomore in college, and if I'm not reading, I'm probably listening to music, watching a scary movie or three, watching a Cubs game, or playing pool with my friends when school's in session.

Om mit bibliotek I love popular fiction, especially horror novels and thrillers, although I am trying to expand my literary preferences.

(answer to the conversation we were having about Insomnia)

Have you read all Stephen King's books?
I feel bad Insomnia was the first book by him I tried to read. It kind of gave him a bad impression about his writing (that all of his books are endless and pointless).
I'm probably wrong since he's such a sucessful writer.
Any good recomendations for a second shot?
I didn't think Cell dragged any. There are those spots that are breaks between storms, but I thought the mystery of how The Pulse worked and who would do such a thing, not to mention how the phoners were changing... what would come next... kepts the slower-paced spots still forward-working. I got my copy from BookMooch, and now I've read it, and it's such a page turner the spine's still not cracked. I've never had a book like that.

Anyway, here's my review if you want to read it. http://thekoolaidmom.wordpress.com/2008/...
Something Wickend This Way Comes is one of my favorite books. I've read it two or three times, and the last time was with my fifteen-year-old. It was her favorite book until we read To Kill a Mockingbird, which has now been replaced by The Outsiders as her favorite. Have you got to the part where the witch is in the hot air balloon looking for them? That scared the pants off me!

BTW, I'm 97 pages into Lisey's Story by Stephen King. It's different, in a way, from his usual stuff, but it is still very King. It's a love story, of sorts... which I think is a first for him (unless you count Misery, a love story of an entirely different nature.) It's got the mystery, and the monster, of his normal work... it's captivating and sweet, in a King-ish way. I like it a lot, so far.
Okay... But most of the books we read for school I didn't actually read. Is that a problem? haha. And I put a different Harry Potter than you, probably. And probably a different Sisterhood. I didn't feel like finding each individual one. maybe I will later.
Is it funny that the only book we share is Crime and Punishment? Or is that just scary?
Well, Mike calls me Snord, if that's better.
