Tokyo, a smoldering memorial to the unknown, an unknown which at this very moment still prevails and could at any time lash out with its terrible destruction anywhere else in the world.

I thought Godzilla Returns was a really fun little bit of light reading, so I'm now reading the sequel, Godzilla 2000, concurrently with The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes.

After finishing Godzilla 2000 and The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes - and enjoying them both very much, Memoirs being the only piece of literature that's ever made me shed a tear - I read All Quiet on the Western Front, and have now moved onto F. Scott Fitzgerald's Tender is the Night.

Love The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus so much. Although I think the book drags a little after the battle between the Awgwas' army and the Immortals.

^Because one can't simply go to sleep on Christmas Eve night I ended up reading all of The Life and Adventures (after reading only the first few chapters earlier in the month) 'till about a quarter 'till 2. I didn't mind the lack of conflict after the big battle with the evil beasts because I really loved the various explanations Baum gives of how Claus ended up acquiring so many rituals and traditions around himself.

I like the explanations as well, but it drags the book a little too much. I wish some of it had been explained before the battle. That way you have the huge battle, then the decision about the mantle of immortality.
