i just finished two. a puffickly fantastic story :D and running with scissors

Just finished up Dan Brown's book "Deception Point" and then started "A long way gone, memoirs of a boy soldier".

Well, again..I'm reading about 3 different books. I just finished a book on Norse mythology and started a book on Egyptian mythology. I've been trying to read Eldest, the second book in the Eragon series. Eragon was decent, way over-hyped in my opinion. Eldest is pretty bad so far. Heart-Shaped-Box by Joe Hill (Stephen King's son) was great. Neil Gaiman's Fragile Things is a great collection of short stories, one of which is nominated for a Hugo Award. Michael Crichton's new one, Next, is OK if you like Crichton, but like alot of his recent books, it's full of plot holes and hardly any character development. Company by Max Barry is a good read and so is Barry's Jennifer Government.

Finally got to the end of "First Men on the Moon" by H.G.Wells. It was a good read but seemed to take me 4 times as long to read as books normally do.

Next up is... Well "Hitch-Hikers Guide to the Galaxy" is on my list, but it depends on whther I can get my hands on it before I'm distracted by something else glittery...

Hitch-Hikers was fun.

KG200 is heavy, but interesting.

Been reading some Kim Harrison (Dead Witch...). I like her better than Laurel Hamilton.

Also have James Patterson queued up - Pop Goes the Weasel.

Just read the cheese story a few weeks ago. Have started "Atlas Shrugged" by Ayn Rand. That should keep me busy until the final Harry Potter book comes out....... and well beyond I'm sure.

Self Matters By Dr. Phillip C. McGraw

I'm in the middle of Umberto Eco's Foucault's Pendulum.

Since I last posted in this thread I've read the final Harry Potter book and am nearly thru with Atlas Shrugged. Just started reading, "Weird Hauntings: True Tales of Ghostly Places" by Joanne Austin.

19 minutes, jodi picoult. it's about a highschool shooting, really forces one to wonder if they will ever truly know their own children.

Been reading a fair amount of Kim Harrison. I like her better than Laurel Hamilton. Same type of deal..vampires and a female private eye type.

the long emergency, kunstler.
not long in yet but so far it seems to me the only purposes of the book are a teeny bit of fear mongering, lots of suburban-american bashing, and the fervent hope of the author's that when the dark ages finally arrive, we'll all call it "the long emergency" thus making him the best phrase-coiner ever..

The Economic Development of Western Civilisation by Shepard B. Clough. :p

I'm reading Cadillac Beach by Tim Dprsey right now.
