I am Legend. Surprised this was written in the 50s. Thought it was pretty damn good up until the ending.

I read it about ten years ago myself and thought it was quite good, as has been the case with other Richard Matheson stories I have tackled.

Got the Mask Omnibus vol 1

Finished reading Batman Dark Knights Metal...thought it was really trippy.

Eyeing the authority omnibus, the Batman who laughs, and a few DC titles

Slowly, very slowly going through the Wheel of Time books.

Somehow I have found myself in a place where I read books out loud to my wife. We are currently most of the way through Susanna Clarke's Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell. I find reading out loud to be a slower process than reading to myself and this book is even slower because it is dialogue heavy and the the characters use olde tyme English but we are both loving the story.

Yeah very different from the movie but surprisingly good. The book also had some short stories in them haven't read them yet.

[The Darknight Detective]

It's the closest to Vincent Price's The Last Man on Earth, FWIW.

I've just started reading Bram Stoker's Dracula.

I read that for the first time this past summer.

. . . Currently I'm working my way through

Dracula by Bram Stoker

Very different in some ways from the way I was previously use to how Dracula was portrayed in movies and comic books.

This is the first time I've read it too. It's been years since I've read an "old" book, but this doesn't feel old. It must've been way ahead of it's time. I'm enjoying it.

Rereading A Crown for Cold Silver. I read it a long time ago, but the other two books in the trilogy are now on my shelves, so time to dive back in!

A massacre is a good topic for a book!^

I have been doing so much reading. The last book I picked up was Peter Pan, but I am reading tons more than that at the moment. I hope this thread can focus my energy in the right area.

Recently, i read a book called Going Rogue: An American Life by Governor Sarah Palin. Damn it's so long I think it is a very good book for people who label Governor Palin as unintelligent. She gets the chance to explain and rationalize herself, and I think it is an invaluable resource that she uses quite effectively.

I've just started reading Bram Stoker's Dracula.

I found it a little tough at first.
