I imagine that many of us have the new
Harry Potter book on their list, even if they don't have a copy reserved or pre-purchased yet.
As for me, picking up a DVD of "The War of the Worlds" is giving me the desire to give Wells another go (I've never made it through any of his books). And while I'm at it, I going to try some Jules Verne.
Currently, I'm reading 3001: The Final Odyssey, a not-for-sale readers' proof edition that I won at a charity book raffle. (There are some other books in that pile waiting to be read. I just finished a 50th anniversary Peanuts collection.)
On the nonfiction front: I finished Mark Levin's book, Men in Black and I'' probably head for the library soon to reserve a few other conservative books.
What are you looking forward to? Discuss.

I read The Kite Runner and it was excellent. Not too political IMHO. I am now reading The Devil in the White City--true story that reads like fiction.

Took the Kite Runner and Middlesex to the beach house last week. Very engaging.

I just bought that myself. It's in the pile to read.
I'm reading "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" in anticipation of the movie coming out in December.

I was thinking of picking up Zell Millers new book "A deficit of decency". What is it about exactly?
His first book (a national party no more) actually convinced me to stop voting Democrat. It just summed up all of the problems I had with "The Party" and its direction.

I am reading nothing but Free Republic this summer. I just completed my first year of nursing school (last day today!!), and it seemed like I had my nose in a book 24/7. Everyone have a great summer. I'm off to Florida tonight for a week.
