Title says it all.

Here's my must read list:

Name of the Wind and the sequel The Wise Man's Fear by Patrick Rothfuss

Failure is not an Option- Gene Krantz

Apollo by Catherine Bly and Charles Murry

The Farseer books by Robin Hobb

NASA Apollo Series: Stages to Saturn, A technological history of the Apollo/Saturn Vehicles by Roger E Bilstein

The Martian by Andy Weir

[aceassasin]

I'm currently reading two books for my summer reading assingment in AP lang and comp. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and The Color Purple.

[Dodgey]

I'm not reading anything at the moment and hating myself for it. But if I ever do get a copy defeintly the 2001 Space Odssey series.

[FishInferno]

ATM I am reding Rocket Men and Speaker for the Dead(sequel to Enders Game).

Here is my must read list:

The Case for Mars

Lost Moon

Lord of the Rings

Failure is Not an option.

I would have to say my all-time favorite book is Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins. My favorite space-related book is probably either Apollo: The epic journey to the moon or Mission to Mars(Buzz aldrin)

Ps. If you are into space(which I assume you are I u play ksp), then may I suggest Skywalking by Tom Jones. He was a shuttle astronaut and he writes bout his experiences of his 4 shuttle flights. I would also recommend Too Far From Home(I forget the author). It's about the three astronauts who were on the ISS at the time of Columbia's disintegration.

I started Revelation Space by Alastair Reynolds today. I have serious doubts about finishing it, it's pretty bad.

Recently re-read The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Over the summer, I'm meaning to read The Handmaid's Tale for A-level English, but that depends on whether A) I actually find the time to, with all these video games and if I'm still going to be doing English next school year.

Also, I should probably get more Ciaphas Cain books. If you haven't heard of it, it's a series set in Warhammer 40K that's somewhat reminiscent of Blackadder. If you haven't heard of THAT, then there is no hope for you.

I have as much time for reading as for gaming - but gaming usually wins apart from longer trips by train, but then I tend to watch some TV series on my netbook instead most of the time. My time is not even enough to play all the games I want/ed to play, KSP being one big reason here.

Biggest reason: I have to work.

So do you have some titles to post?

[impwarhamer]

staarted reading 'a song of ice and fire' (a game of thrones for the TV people) 2 months back, so ya I guess they'll keep me busy for the next 10 years

[QuesoExplosivo]

I just started Rapture of the Nerds (by Cory Doctorow).

[Herr Doktor Strangemember]

I'm re-reading the Dresden Files in preparation for the newest book Skin Game.

Working, Playing games, running, working out. Still have time to read.

[Rainbowtrout]

I'm currently reading Blood of Asaheim. It's a book about 40K, and the Space Wolves. Though, I should read some Douglas Adams books.

[KerbMav]

Some suggestions then:

Song of Ice and Fire - definitely!

The curious incident of the dog in the night-time - narrated from the point of view of an autistic teenager, something different

Working, Playing games, running, working out. Still have time to read.

Then you are not gaming enough!

The last sentence of my post was not meant pretentious, rather annoyed at the fact of not simply being filthy rich.

And you are touching another touchy topic - before I up on the reading I should rather start running and working out too ...

[The Destroyer]

Console wars, just finished it. Amazing book! I wonder what SEGA would've done if Sega of Japan had complied with SOA... they could've had silicon valleys chip that went into nintendos project reality, or work with sony! Darn it.

[Crashy_McSplodey]

Currently reading 'The Battle of Corrin: Machine Crusade' from the Dune prequel trilogy., by Frank Herbert and Kevin J Anderson

Next on the list is 'The Causal Angel' by Hannu Rajaniemi.
