I'm re-reading Stephen Baxter's Exultant right now in preparation for next week's release of his Transcendent.
The Bible. Old Testament. Exodus. I really don't have a lot of time to read, so there is really nothing else on my plate rtight now. Maybe after the semester ends. I'll probably get back to re-reading my Roald Dahl collection (both the children's stories and the short stories).
Memoirs of Ulysses S. Grant and selected Letters - Library of America.
I'm a bit of a history buff; and I feel I can learn something useful from historical figures like him. Maybe become a bit wiser too.

Having abandoned all sensible dissertation reading in favour of winging it completely, I can now start reading good books again...yay! I've just started In Praise Of Slow by Carl Honoré. It seems interesting so far, and makes me think about the time we spend on certain things. If I take it seriously, expect a leaving thread from me anytime soon....
Twisted by Jonathan Kellerman

Currently reading Riptide by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child (my favorite authors.) I do believe next up on my list is either Mary Mary by James Patterson or Harry Potter 1 (forgot what its called) because I never got around to reading any of those books.
I took Finnegan's Wake from my campus library last week, read about 4 pages, and gave up. I have been told that it isn't really supposed to be comprehended, and I can see why! I was totally lost by the second sentence.
