    Reading these two right now.

    Tend to gravitate toward history and instructional books.

    Finished "The Nature of Things" by Lucretius as translated by A.E. Stallings. There were definitely a few times I felt the book could be better appreciated if I had been under the influence of something stronger than bourbon. Maybe some mushrooms.

    Starting "Letters from a Stoic" by Seneca as translated by Robin Campbell.

    Currently reading Geek Love by Katherine Dunn.

    Last week was John Grisham's Boys From Biloxi. Not his best IMO. It was a little long winded compared to his other books I've read.

    I also read The Road by Cormac McCarthy beginng of January and hands down the most depressing book I've read

    I read so many Books every week for the most it does not hurt to read .

    Today I am reading Jasper Fforde The Fourth Bear fits in with Douglas Adams or Maybe Terry Pratchet

    Pure escape from the everyday World which is pretty much the reason I read.

    Picked this up on a whim for a couple bucks at a used book store while on a road trip. Turned out to be pretty engaging; finished it in just a few sittings.
