I've just finished Outliers: The Story of Success by Malcolm Gladwell which was every bit as interesting - though not quite as good as - The Tipping Point.
After that, I've decided to go for some more non-fiction and yesterday I started John Kenneth Galbraith's The Great Crash 1929. I don't know the Wall St Crash in as much depth as I would like, I really know far too little about economics and I hope this book will remedy those two things.

The Godfather. Fantastic.
Oh, did I mention I'm awesome?
Just finished 'The Road' by Cormac McCarthy. Great great book.
I finished "Shadow Warrior", by David Everett.
Currently: Kinky Fiedman - Armadillo and the old lace.
Fiction reveals truths that reality obscures.
Oh my! Are you still sane?
I thought the movie were the weirdest thing ever, and i've heard the book is even worse
I'm currently reading "Rouge Clone". Its the second in the series, and i loved the first. After that i'm going for another Philip K Dick Novel.
My best reads are "Hero!" & "The gilded chain" by Dave Duncan. And "Old Man's War"
:mog:
Make sure you read Mario Puzo's other books while you're at it! I really liked Fool's Die, for some reason xD My dad said it was just a soft core porno, but idk
I need some bubble gum reading, so I order 1-7 of the Sookie Stackhouse books that True Blood is based on for only $30 dollars on Amazon. Woo-hoo!
Asimov is a freaking genius.
I'm re-reading Tiger! Tiger! by Alfred Bester for about the billionth time. Possibly one of the best sci-fi books in existence.
I also jump into The Art of War by Sun Tzu every now and then. Although it's basically a military manual, I think the philosophy behind a lot of the extracts is just useful for dealing with people, and it makes for a very thought-provoking read. As well as this, I also read some of the shorts from Wisdom of the Idiots by Idries Shah.

I’m currently reading Homer’s Odyssey, but since I’ve read it once before, I’m putting a twist on things by reading it in reverse (page at a time not by word, that would be too confusing). I’m using Dr. Seuss’s Sleep Book to refresh my mind and keep me going every however many pages or so (it’s kind of like morphine).
Moved on from The Great Crash and have moved on to re-reading Catch-22 which is every bit as wonderful as I remember it being. Only about a hundred pages in at the minute, about to start the chapter Major Major Major Major

Currently reading "Death with Interruptions" by José Saramago
Why didn't I try that when I was the overly ambitious 12-year-old, looking to impress her teachers? >_> God, I hated reading that book. The awkward sentences were hard for me to slog through. It took me about 6 weeks to read that monstrosity, I think.
I am now reading The Bean Trees by Barbara Kingsolver. Finally, last summer reading book!
