What Book Are You Currently Reading 2
Sense and Sensibility
Austen's style is different from the small bit of Bronte (excuse the lack of accent, I don't plan on searching for it at the moment) I've read. At once both easier to read, due to terms used, and more difficult, due to similar names or long meandering phrases.

Pride and Prejudice.
*Sigh*. I know.
Parents are supposed to "protect" their kids, but there's a real distinction between protection and unrealistically keeping children away from reality. - Life_Sucks --- One of my teasers was featured as the Teaser of the Day! :D Sept. 18 2011 :D YAY!

^ Good luck with that one. We're in a similar boat. [I half wanted to sod off the original and just read the one there with the Seamonsters and all, but I'll have to suck it up and read for sake of understanding original sources; it's not all that bad, S&S, it's just, not as fun as Dickens')

I found it to be decent. The time frame it has is pretty short, and I felt it didn't really delve into the "big things" as most other war stories, and ended somewhat strangely, but it did describe things well. It was okay.
*Bram Stoker. I've been putting off reading that, as well as at least twenty or so other classics, simply because of the length. What can I say, I'm not a fan of length.
Now, to both act contrary and stand as fact of that statement, I submit that currently I'm only reading several graphic novels/manga and the complete collection of stories of Winnie-the-Pooh. Besides that, nothing this time.

I love reading long books. The longer it is, the more I want to read it!

That's how I am Even though I gave up on Les Mis after about 100 pages. xD
I'm reading Magician by Michael Scott right now.
Anybody can be Prince Charming one day a year, with the dinner and the flowers and all that. But you know what impresses me? When a guy can be Prince Charming no days a year. - Ryan Howard, The Office

It is included in a series about Vampirates. (I understand it sounds childish, but let me reassure you, it has a great plot)
I am now reading "To Kill a Mockingbird."

I'm on Braingle far too long, I stay on the computer from dusk to dawn. Playing games and chatting with friends, the novelity of it never ends.

Ah, I was recently going to try and listen to an audiobook of that (for want of different media). Unfortunately I only got to the first chapter or so and then was too busy and ran out of time and had to return it. I would like to pick it back up, one day, though. The CD sounded cool too because the narrator actually sounded like a beat poet. :]
