What Are You Reading Right Now?

Maybe I read it atthe wrongtime in my life - tooo much going on th pay attention, but I will most probably not do it again
 
Donald Rumsfeld's "Known and Unknown."
Very good book, written in a straight-forward way.
 
War and Peace isn't the first classic I would read, and in either case it is useful to have a list of characters and their connection to one another.

If Russian Literature is your interest, you're better off starting with something like Notes from Underground or Crime and Punishment.

I'm reading the new Malcolm X biography which has stirred up a great deal of controversy because the author claims that Alex Haley's Autobiography of Malcolm X was revisionist history. The biographer also has the benefit of having all the FBI files on Malcolm X which he obtained under the Freedom of Information Act. Haley's biography predates the passage of FOIA.
 
Crimes Against Liberty: An Indictment of President Barack Obama by David Limbaugh

I'm re-reading the Foundation series by Asimov. I just felt a need to go old-school. I just finished "Foundation" and last night I started "Foundation and Empire".

Don't forget to read the stories linking The Caves of Steel to the Empire. His last two novels on Hari Seldon were also interesting enough, though it was clear he was well past his prime by then.
 
Sky Burial by Xinran Xue, quite a good book about Tibet, China, Buddhism and the dietary habits of sacred vultures.
 
I just finished Biohazard by Ken Alibek. Now I'm flipping between James Bamford's The Shadow Factory, and Michio Kaku's Physics of the Future.
 
Fatal Revanant by Stephen Donaldson and Understanding Business. Surprisingly the business textbook is fairly good reading.
 
Re reading Turner Diaries waiting on a few books to come in from different libraries.
 
How To Make a Serial Killer by Christopher Berr-Dee and Steven Morris

just finished Mentored by the King...my dream golfing foursome would have Palmer, Trevino, Watson, and Zoeller. Id just drive the beer cart in awe...
 
Starless Night, R. A. Salvatore.
 
Red Tape and White Knuckles. (One woman's motorcycle adventure through Africa) Lois Pryce.

What is the serial killer one about? Sounds good.
 
Keegan's The First World War
 
Anne Bishop, The Shadow Queen. I blame my roommate/landlady.
 
Hot Six by Janet Evanovich

Stephanie Plum novel, pretty much reading them all again

I've read it before but wanted to read them again. Need 3 more for the whole set out in paperback so far.
 
Anansi Boys by Neil Gaiman.

I'm enjoying it a lot but having just finished American Gods by the same author it feels a little samey.

Have you read Neverwhere, yet? I'd recomend that and Good Omens (By Gaiman and Pratchett) if you haven't read them yet.
 
Just finished The Infernal Machine by Mathew Carr, picking up Ivan's War by Catharine Merridale
