Just read:

Clive Cussler - The Chase
Clive Cussler - Plague Ship
Janet Evanovich - Fearless Fourteen

Both authors seem to be suffering from "This book is only slightly different from the last" syndrome.

G.H Hardy - A Mathematician's Apology

An excellent choice, Tranque. A lot of substance to what was debated for the most part though I found it somewhat off - putting when an argument was come about purely for the sake of debate, especially at such a time for both of them. Then again, I guessed that was kind of the point of looking to the Fates.

Oh and Ex, for what to read next, it may be worth looking into some Tolstoy, maybe... something like "Resurrection".

#36300493761 08/31/2008 00:08:49 Re:What Are You Reading?

I got several books going at once, including:

--The Collected Letters of Jane Austen, which are an utter hoot since she's got this wicked but subtle snarky sense of humor

--Rob Thurman's "Madhouse", the third of the Cal Leandros dark urban fantasy series

--Jacqueline Carey's "Kushiel's Avatar", the third of a lengthy but wonderful erotic high fantasy/alternate history series

#36300493771 08/31/2008 02:44:08 Re:What Are You Reading?
The Audacity of Hope by Barack Obama. I've been meaning to, finally bought it at the university bookstore.

Thanks for the recommendation.

After reading the synopsis, it doesn't sound like something I'd read, but at some point I may just embrace the tangent.

Edit:  My next will be one of the following:

  • 'Survivor' - Palahniuk
  • 'Women' - Bukowski
  • 'Hunger' - Hamsun

Since I don't currently have any new books, I'm re-reading this for the twenty-seventh time:

'My Boring-Azz Life'
- Kevin Smith

His lifestyle is so engaging, it's impossible not to be drawn in.

Some of those books are written really well, though my favourite piece of writing has to be the description of how Tyranids Consume entire planets in a matter of days. Awesome and Horrifying in Equal measure.

Currently I am reading Legends of Dune: The Butlerian Jihad.
#36300495644 09/06/2008 10:42:34 Re:What Are You Reading?
