Currently I've begun reading Lord Byron selected poems. Very nice works, just extremely long winded.

I'd like to be able to read some older texts.

I'd love to be able to find some books on the fabled Avalon.

I'm currently reading Frankenstein by Mary Shelley.

I'm kind of new to these kinds of big books really. But I think I can do it. ^^

And I also want to read my second choice. A book written by Edgar Allan Poe(with a Swedish title).

Onder vreemde vlag(transl. Under a foreign flag), by Rende van de Kamp.

The author describes his time serving in the Royal Netherlands Army, Mayor Haddad`s militia in Lebanon, The French Foreign Legion, and the Croatian Army. He also describes his aid in the attempted coup in Suriname(small former Dutch colony in South America)

Its by no means a PC book, but it sure is quite the story. The guy has been under 24/7 Intelligence service surveillance for many years, and many people over here were not really happy with this book. I like it though. Smiley

I'm finishing Dracula. This book has kept me engrossed from since I picked it up. In fact I am pretty picky with what I read. I am going to be starting Speaks the Nightbird.

I usually read many books at a time.. right now I'm reading The Egyptian Book of the Dead, and an Encyclopedia on Ancient Egypt..

But my main read right now is "Wicca: The Old Religion in the New Millennium", by Vivianne Crowley.

I usually have a few books going at the same time too  Wink

Right now I'm reading Dark Angels by Karleen Koen and Your Aura and Your Chakras by Karla McLaren.

Dark Angels is awesome so far, I'm only on Chapter 6.
"A delicious and dark adventure set within the magnificent sweep of the seventeenth-century courts of Charles II of England and Louis XIV of France. Koen's excellent resarch and fully drawn characters bring to life the lavish wealth and glamour, the scheming, and the deeply human emotions of a fascinating era"
