    Me either.

    Now for a serious addition to this thread. Drum roll, please.

    I've been reading Slave Ship from the Bounty Hunter Wars series. It's okay, a bit repetative though. I only read it when I'm extremely bored (ie at work). So far there's been a pretty cool gun fight, and a nice space chase, but thats about all that I've really enjoyed.

    I've just read way too many books on Federico Fellini. Next is a stack of poems on the Demeter/Persephone myth. The after that is The Riders by Tim Winon. All of this has to be done by Thursday eek!

    EU QUESTION: I've only read Book 1 out of the entire X-Wing series. Would you recommend that I do not read Book 9 now?

    How were the Fellini books, Jenna? Any ones in particular that you reccoment. He's one of my favourite film makers. I'm a big fan.

    I just finished THE RIDERS. Didn't like it much at all.

    Lucky?
    No, just patient. I bought the book when it first came out (yes, I am that old) and waited over the years until the authors both came out to Australia.

    One of my prized possessions and sits happily next to my Signed copies of the Zahn trilogy :)

    Every so often I re-read the books in my collection. I'm going through the X-Wing books again (IN ORDER if you please, Ki).

    Got sniggered at by schoolgirls this morning because I was reading a SW book on the train (maybe they think I'm too old for it), but I'm used to being persecuted for my beliefs :)

    It mostly depends on whether or not you want to know which pilots die. Some of the books are in series (1-4, for rogue squad, 5-7 for wraith squad) 8 takes place after thrawn campaign, and 9 takes place of Jedi Academy campaign. So you can choose, Adumar (9) only has four pilots in it anyway.
    But i've got em all so i don't really mind
