What I'm reading

It's been ages since I've done a What I'm Reading post!

Igraine the Brave
by Cornelia Funke
Fantasy

Really really fun. It's been on my to-read list for a while. I haven't even finished it, but I can already tell you that I'd recommend it. :)

I've been listening to it while making my mom's Christmas present.



Shogun
by James Clavell
Historical fiction

I'm still not ready to put this on the list of books I haven't finished! Currently I'm waiting for my turn to get it from Library2Go so that I can finish listening to it. I hope to finish it, or at least come close, this winter break.



Catcher in the Rye
by J.D. Salinger
Fiction

I'm only on page 37 or so, but I can already tell that this is going to be an interesting book.
