I read a few books at a time. Right now I am reading a novel, American Wife, by Curtis Sittenfeld; Our Dumb World: Atlas of the Planet Earth by the editors at The Onion, and Welcome to Jesusland: Shocking Tales of Depravity, Sex, and Sin Uncovered by God's Favorite Church, Landover Baptist by the folks at the Landover Baptist site. I am also reading Quantum Enigma: Physics Encounters Consciousness by Bruce Rosenblum and Fred Kuttner, and I'm working up the courage to read The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins. The last two are available in our bookstore.

What's everyone else reading? Any recommendations?

I got to thinking about Carl Sagan the other day so I'm re-reading "Demon Haunted World."

I just finished Yendi by Steven Brust. I've read it a couple of dozen times and I still find new stuff in it by the author. There was a Monty Python and the Holy Grail reference in it that I just realized. I have an Agatha Christie novel that I'm going to read next. I've gotten hook on her books lately.

I'm currently reading complicity by Iain Banks and just finished the third policeman by Flann O'brien. I didn't care for the third policeman, it wasn't my cup of tea, it was absurd surrealist fiction. Mercifully, it was a quick read, but i feel that those hours are lost forever. Complicity is much better.

Speaking of tea – I recently finished Three Cups of Tea. It is a worthy read. And speaking of Afghanistan (no – not a non-sequiter – Three Cups of Tea features Afghanistan,) I also just finished reading A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini. Good books.

I'm currently reading the series The Ledgend Of Drizzt by R.A. Salvatore. They are by far the best fantasy books I have ever read. I have also recently finished The Reader which is good at first, but then becomes horrible, I would not recomend that book. However, try Richard Bachman's (Stephen Kings pseudonym) Blaze, that is by far my faviorite book.

I am currently reading Benjamin Franklin: an American life by Walter Isaacson, The Dark Tower VI – Song of Susannah by Stephen King and Off the Rails: Aboard the Crazy Train in the Blizzard of Ozz by Rudy Sarzo.

And I just ordered Angels & Demons by Dan Brown and Spook: Science Tackles the Afterlife by Mary Roach, (based on Mindy Kinnaman’s recommendation). They should both be here any day now…

I changed my mind. I'm reading Small Favors by Jim Butcher. It's a Dresden File book.

The Angel of Darkness, from Caleb Carr.

I'm a sucker for historical detective fiction.

I am currently reading The Vampire Huntress Legend Series by L. A. Banks. 12 books in total I am on book 7 The Forsaken.

All Damali Richards ever wanted to do was create music and bring it to the people. Now she is a spoken word artist and the top act for Warriors of Light Records. But come nightfall, she hunts vampires and demons – predators that people tend to dismiss as myth or fantasy. Damali and her Guardian team cannot afford such delusions, especially now, when a group of rouge vampires has been killing the artists of Warriors of Light and their rival, Blood Music.

When strange attacks errupt within the club drug-trafficking network and draw the attention of the police, Damali realizes these killings are a bit out of the ordinary, even for vampires. Instead of neat puncture marks in the neck showing where the blood has been drained from the body, these corpses are mutilated beyond recognition, indicating a blood lust and thirst for destruction that surpasses any Damali has encountered before. Soon she discovers that behind these brutal murders is the most powerful vampire Damali has ever met – a seductive beast who is coming for her next…

Kinda reminds me of the Sonya Blue series.

Right now I'm reading Death on the Nile by Agatha Christie. It's pretty good so far.

I read that many years ago. I used to love Agatha Christie. Haven't read any in years.

I'm reading Spook, Science Tackles the Afterlife and In the Woods by Tana French.

Right now I'm reading…

Everyday Life in Medieval England

Not bad if you're interested in the time period

An Underground Education : The Unauthorized and Outrageous Supplement to Everything You Thought You Knew About Art, Sex, Business, Crime, Science, Medicine, and Other Fields…. by Richard Zachs

Has a few disturbing stories in it (and not in a good way), so I'd proceed with caution if your squeamish.

I write books. I take pictures.

Michelle, I read that the Underground Education book several years ago. Scratch that … I read about a third of the book and didn't finish. LOL

It was … um … interesting, and I do want to finish it.
