    The title says it all.

    Even now, in our days of E-Readers and cellphones and PDFs, there's something about a physical, dead-tree book that's in your hands and flipping the pages as you progress while kicking back with your feet up and sipping a cold beer.

    Here's the titles I'm working through currently (noted ASIN/ISBN numbers included)

    CAM00037_zpscfips9h7_2715362018340418677836ca09b92d518d1e5000.jpg

    The Knowledge: How to rebuild our world from scratch
    ASIN: B00N4EJC58
    "Imagine 'Zombieland' told by Neil deGrasse Tyson'..." is on the back cover. 'Nuff said

    Henley'd Formulas: For Home And Workshop
    ISBN-10: 0517293072
    A literal dictionary of how to use base compounds to resin your teeth, set ink, or seal a steel pipe joint. Boy Scout preparedness meets Wikipedia

    Oh Joy, Sex Toy
    ISBN-10: 0982343787
    Brilliantly written and informative webcomic given to reviewing sex toys and personal sexual education as a whole, as it should be if information were actually what was important. Erika Moen does a splendid job making this approachable and fun

    Michael Symon's 5 in 5
    ISBN-10: 0770434320
    Cookbook based on the idea that a scant few fresh ingredients and a little bit of time can give you a pretty darn good and varied menu for daily eating that's pretty healthy


    What are y'all reading at the moment?

    I very much enjoyed it. The character development is very well done. There are several "aha" moments throughout the book which I really enjoy, and overall the story line is fascinating. Just my opinion though
