Read any good books lately?

[Smaug]

I never really read much until late 8th grade year when I moved to vegas. I bought a copy of the hobbit and just loved tolkiens writing so much that I bought LOTR and read all of that. Then the silmarillion. I don't know what it is about fantasy but it just holds me, unlike nonfiction. After reading other obscure tolkien works like farmer giles of ham and such I looked elsewhere to newer writings. I found Forgotten Realms and have since read about 10 books from there all by bob salvatore. Now I'm just finishing up Redwall by Brian Jacques. I never thought I would get into books but that changed about a year and 3 months ago and I hope I never go back. Just wondering if you guys have had any similar experiences.
