ZRight nowI'm ready The Murder She wrote books, which are based on the TV series. I got a new one yesterday. I just finished reading " A slaying in Savannah". I was reading another one, but i'm going to put it aside for the one I just got.

I'm now reading 'Fooled by Randomness' the book which Taleb wrote BEFORE 'The Black Swan'.

I think Callista would really enjoy the picture on the cover :wink:

The Furies Fernanda Eberstadt..It's kind of upsetting.
The Slaughterhouse Five by.. eh.. Something Vonnegut.. God only knows how many times I've read it before. No, I do know. 8 or 9.
The Suitors by.. ugh gosh I can't remember. It's based on The Oddysey. The author is a writer for The LA Weekly. Which I don't read. That's all I remember about him. Great book though.
about 12 others. I'm a little scatterbrained at the moment.
