Stone of Tears, by Terry Goodkind.

 

Actually, it's not on my nightstand, but rather in my bag that I take to work every night along with Family Guy volumes 1 and 2 DVD box sets, and Star Trek Armada II.

 

Entertainment for while I'm at work. :thumbs:

The Holy Bible.

Actually,I have bad eyesight and my glasses are broken (waiting for new ones),so I recently purchased the New testament on CD so I can listen to it . :(

I have boxes and boxes and boxes full of books in my closets,garage,attic,etc....I'm a book junkie.Have been since I was 4-or-5 years old.My mother started me reading very early-on,and I inherited her love of the printed word.

I'm currently working on "None Dare Call It Conspiracy" by Gary Allen.

 

I'm thinking the next thing I read will be a little less heavy on the brain!

I'm almost done with Stone of Tears. Only 8 books in the series after that. :lol:

 

Then I'm going to read the Jason Bourne trilogy (The Bourne Identity, The Bourn Supremacy, and The Bourne Ultimatum). Then I'm going to read through Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles (and I'll have to throw in New Tales of the Vampire). And maybe after that I'll go through Tom Clancy's mainstream novels (The Hunt for Red October, The Sum of All Fears, etc... none of the series) again.

Sarah by Marek Halter

This is a fast read and I very much enjoyed it. Based on the character in the old testiment, I read this book last night in 2 hours. Kind of haunting me throughout the day, thinking of the core lessons from it.
