got a few funny looks on the subway while reading this today
Dead in the Water by Stuart Woods
I'm currently bookless.... I have many to read, but I haven't started a new one yet.
Finished 'lipstick Jihad' (liked it for nostalgic reasons).
Now embarking on The Long Walk.
Is Lipstick Jihad by that comedian? I can't remember her name... going to look it up.
which comedian? the one now talking on Air America Radio?
I was thinking of Shazia Mirza. I dunno if she's on Air America, but she was interviewed on NPR.
oops! I didn't see your nope post.
Joys of surfing (more like molass surfing) using a 15-pound laptop and a 28.8K modem.
Have you read the time traveller's wife?
I don' think I read that book.
Reading 'Breaking Robert's Rules - tools for advanced multiparty negotiation'. A real page-turner, fascinating stuff. Yeah...Yawn..
oooh, sounds great!
I still haven't started a new book. Maybe my binge reading has let up....?
Dag: Is the Robert rules the same robert with the 'calling the previous question' and all that jazz? this is not a voluntary choice is it?
LK: do you read multiple books simultaneously? And then are they all the same genre, or like a soft-romance, a gutwrenching nonfiction to offset?
I sometimes read multiple books, I never read romance novels. They are fiction or sci-fi. Lately I've been trying to plow through the series of unfortunate events by lemony snicket.
sorry, internal translation error: soft-romance was meant to read fiction-novel.
I was asking because sometimes I try this, but my brain somehow combines the stories if they are both in the same groupings.
Apropos sci-fi, have you read hyperion?
I'm on Richard Gross's "Key studies in Psychology" and am liable to be so for the foreseeable future.
It's utterly absorbing but slow going!
Christine Feehan's dark series theres 15 of them im on the last one..
I'm reading David Halberstam's The Fifties. All I have to say is, the more things change, the more they remain the same.
I just finished Price of Honour
author- Jan Goodwin
it is an excellent book- non-fiction. it's about the muslim world and culture and its treatment of women. it is a bit old (1994) but still insightful.
Onto Dennis Lehanes "Sacred"
After that I have "Legendary Connecticut Traditional Tales from the Nutmeg State". I've been waiting to sit and concentrate on it. I found it interesting that before I opened it up I thought about what legends and lores I grew up hearing about, and when I looked through the index they were in there. Fun and educational I suppose.
