Harry Potter is lame.

Right now I'm reading Persuasion by Austen. I don't know why I chose it.

Just finished Kafka on the Shore by Haruki Murakami. I'm not completely sure what I think of it, its good in that its one of the books that requires another read cos of the mounds of metaphors and symbolism embedded in the story. I definitely like the writing style though (even though its translated from Jap)
