Ha, there's more manga listed here than there are books.
"La Religieuse" by Diderot (ooh là là, en français)
"Snow Country" by Yasunari Kawabata
Both school assignments. Couldn't stop reading either of them... which may mean that I've been book-starved for the past good while. Probably been absorbing too much visual media.
"The Moral Animal" by Robert Wright. Evolutionary psychology fascinates me.
We're about to start "Les Liasons Dangereuses." How sick is that! Anybody seen "Dangerous Liaisons" with Michelle Pfeiffer?
Exactly.

Much of what I have read lately are either school books (which, with few exceptions, I have picked up with extreme distaste) or pleasure reading relating in some way to the stories I write  . Here is a small list: Metapatterns Gaia Atlas of world peoples the Cosmic Serpent Chaos and Harmony Also, since I've recently taken to geology with a strong passion, I've been reading the publications of a elect group of professors at my school. Peace  . |

Time is a an odd comodity for people; it's wasted, killed, and there always seems to be too much of it on your hands, yet there are those who have the nerve to complain when it finally runs out.

The full rulebook for Magic: the Gathering. It's 144 pages. I'm trying to get back into tournament play again, and I need to know the new Type II legal rules and interpretations.
War.

A Guide to Programming in Java - by Beth Brown The same class also uses the following online "book"... Introduction to Computer Science using Java - by Bradley Kjell http://chortle.ccsu.edu/java5/cs151java.htmlI'm probably half way through the text book and about a third of the way through the web "book". It's the main reason why I've had so little time to post... |

So now I'm through all four Ender books (Ender's Game is one of my favorite books, its excellent storytelling, the second one is pretty good, and the other ones I read to satisfy my need for MOAR, they're alright but not great)
Also, 5 books in Baroque Cycle, incredible series.
Now I'm reading Pullmans Dark Materials, and after that the Ender's Shadow books, then I think another Honor or two and then System of the World, the last books of Baroque Cycle.
All of these are highly recommended for anyone with sci-fi, or alternately, historical sci-fi fiction inklings.

I started reading the first book in the Wheel of Time series, but haven't gotten very far yet.
