Oz ,'Him'
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."
I've listened to both Fry and Dale, and I'd say Gris nailed it. There are a few Dale voices that grate on me, but they are more distinctive.
I'd recommend The Golden Compass for a good audiobook listen it has a cast rather than a single reader, which is great.
I mostly liked Dale, but his Hermione and Luna voices just didn't work for me at all. I really liked his voices for everybody else, though, and he was great at describing action.
I have found Pratchett makes for excellent audiobook reading. I'm currently most of the way through Small Gods.
I just finished Soulless. I think some people here have enjoyed it as well.
I liked Soulless, it did take me a bit to get into it but now I can't to read the next one/.
I've also mainlined Kim Harrison's Hollows series. Really enjoying that.
Loved, loved, LOVED Soulless. And my copy of Changeless is on its way!
I ordered both yesterday.
Oh, I turned a friend on to Diana Wynne Jones books. She needed something light and absorbing. (She's feeling down.) So I discovered that a new Diana Wynne Jones book is coming out on the 10th.
Stayed up last night to finish The Hunger Games. Reserved the second volume this morning. Thankful that I am only hold #4 because I don't think I can wait that long to read it.
I started Bad Monkeys on the walk back from the library, and I was already intrigued. And then I read some more at home and I seriously wanted to just keep reading until I was done. I stopped myself, though. But, damn, I haven't encountered a true "page-turner" like this in a while.

When I read them, that's basically what I did; when I realized I was getting close to the end, I ran to the computer and reserved the second one.
I'm horrible at delaying gratification, especially when it comes to books, which is killing me, because I ordered the 4th Skulduggery Pleasant book from Amazon UK, since it's being released there this Thursday and there is no US release date yet. But since I know it's being release Thursday, the waiting for transatlantic shipping is going to KILL ME.
