Your idea of rough is confusing. Unless you can cast some mean spells... |

Just finished Harold Coyle's God's Children. Was pretty good. Liked it better than the last two Coyle books I read. Not as good as Team Yankee though.
Been trying to figure out something else to read.
Honestly I have been putting it off for a while now, but I think I should sit down and bang out Infinite Jest. |

I've been re-reading Ian M Banks' Culture series, currently on The Player Of Games. Top drawer space opera.
Also just started on Post Theory: Reconstructing Film Studies, edited by David Bordwell and Noel Carroll, after our discussion in the Dredd thread recently. |

I miss reading for fun.
Damned sick of Jeremy Bentham.

Jeremy Bentham? Where's the utility in reading that? :p
I've been reading nothing but language courses and linguistics textbooks. The sole exception was this:
It's a great read, specially if you're an atheist and you think there's something amiss with the contemporary criticism of Christianity. It feels like he's talking about a religion that has nothing in common with the travesty espoused by Intelligent Design nutters, which is probably a more accurate representation of what it is to be a Christian than the Tea Party would have you believe.
Makes me want to read "War and Peace", although I'm not sure I have the time to spend reading a book twice the size of the bible :p |

usually have 3 on the go.low brow fiction. non fiction stuff, and then music related reading.
reading Daemon by Suarez. Basically Dan Brown style. Good conceptions, fun if you can accept the rules laid out and probably not the best literature out there.
Just finished Hitchens short one mortality then reread his memoir. Would recommend this but I suppose it would be more interesting if you have followed his life and other novels and essays. Kinda reading in this section Chomsky's Hegemony or Survival but I forget i 'm reading it and i should finish the others first.
And music related, Prokofiev, from Russia to the West
and bill maher's list book when I go to the ladies room. |

Guns, Germs, and Steel by Jared Diamond.
i've been meaning to read this for years and decided to read it now that's its so easy to buy and read on my smartphone. i'm also thinking about rereading Genghis Khan and the making of the Modern World , but i don't have sufficient time. :(
i'm also reading social intelligence by daniel goleman when i momentarily lose interest in the others. |
