Extrem Laut Und Unglaublich Nah/Extremely loud and incredibly close by Jonathan Safran Foer
I still don't know what to say or do about this book. *is confused*

Iron Man Noir by Scott Snyder
Heh, my crush on Marvel fandom continues and I actually start buying comics. Oh dear. (Still need to get my hands on Civil War, though.)

Evil? by Timothy Carter
Short and entertaining!

Emil und die Detektive / Emil und die drei Zwillinge by Erich Kästner
<3

Zero at the Bone (Zero at the Bone, #1) by Jane Seville
I totally read this because the author is the same as the one who wrote the famous Brokeback Mountain fic Human Interest, but Zero at the Bone was a bit of a let-down. Huh.

Zwei an einem Tag/One Day by David Nicholls
I hate romance novels with a passion but this one was actually good, maybe because it didn't feel like romance at all.

You do that! No way around those as Steve/Tony shipper. ;D

So you got into Avengers fandom via the movies? I was so thrilled to see hordes of Marvel fen at the 3-Sätze-Challenge, until I remembered - 'wait, movies! they must have been converted by those!' But I'm not complaining! The movies are great and their characterisation very true to the comics in my opinion.

Heh, Steve/Tony is one of the main reasons why I want to read Civil War. ;)

And yes, I got into Marvel via the movies (RDJ as Tony Stark, how could I not? <3), but I knew there was a huge fanbase for Steve/Tony in the comics so maybe it was a vice versa thing of me falling in love with a ship that technically doesn't exist yet in the movies, which led to me falling for the Avengers, which makes me want to get into the comics now.
