books :)

Finally summer is here. I've got a load of books I want to read over again for pleasure/understanding. I have a mental list of books but I thought I would share.
  • Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse: must be read again before BD release (Aug 2)
  • His Dark Materials, Lyra's Oxford, Once Upon a Time in the North: must read with help from wikipedia & fansites to understand the meanings and themes
  • Lord of the Rings: I have to read Fellowship for summer reading so I might as well read the series again
  • Chronicles of Narnia: would like to see how Lewis' and Pullman's contrast
  • The Good Earth, Into Thin Air, We Band of Angels: more summer reading
  • The Host: must read just because I run a Twilight fansite. And because I live for sci-fi.
  • A New Dawn (fanbook): I'll write a review and post it on the Bite Me blog as well as this one
  • Mortal Instuments: I think that's what the series is called [EDIT: there called moral not mortal. close enough] .I heard they were worth reading.

That should keep me busy for 2 months. Any other good book I should read?

Moral instruments are very much worth the read! As well as the Host. It's absolutely awesome.

I read some books that weren't Twilight as well (SHOCK! She reads stuff that's not by SM!) Try the key books by Nora Roberts, it gets a little bit "chapter 20 from Eclipse" at one point but it is REALLY REALLY good.
