a horror anthology with various stories and all...

I just finished this. It's probably my favorite book ever.

Currently I'm reading:
Blue Mars (Kim Stanley Robinson)
Freakonomics (Steven Levitt and Stephen Dubner)
Blitzkreig (Len Deighton)
The Case for Mars (Robert Zubrin)

Each book occupies a different room in my house

Vacuum Diagrams(Stephen Baxter)
Rendezvous With Rama(Arthur C. Clarke)
A Game of Thrones(George R. R. Martin)
Manta's Gift(Timothy Zahn)

These are definitely some of the best books I've had the chance to read.

Let me guess which!



Bathroom



Bedroom



Toilet


The War Room

I'm not really reading a book right now. How unusual. Nothing's really grabbing me.

In Korean Wilds And Villages by Swedish zoologist Sten Bergman, originally printed in 1938. Details his exploration of Korean traditions, religion, wildlife, flora and just about everything else related to the pennisula, plus lots of interesting stuff from Japan, China and the Soviet union. My edition is from the 50's, detailing in the fore- and afterword how Korea has changed since the devestating wars. Very interesting book.

Sounds really interesting

I'm reading Principles of Biochemistry, great book

I am currently reading Shadows Bend, a fictional account of H.P. Lovecraft and Robert E. Howard setting on a quest after learning that the Cthulhu mythos are TRUE!! !!

Think I'll get a couple of other books out, easy to read novels.

I'm currently reading "The white witch of the south seas" by Dennis Wheatly and I'm waiting to read "All creatures great and small 1 - if only they could talk" by James Herriot.
I've just finished reading "Jennie" by Douglas Preston, the book is funny at beginning but extremely depressing and tragic near the end. Although it gets of to a slow start on the first few pages it quickly picks up and I read it constantly all day and hardly put my kindle down. I wasn't too keen on the character Pam Prentiss, she was very dislikeable. But I really like Sandy, but of course the main protagonist herself Jennie is definitely the best character in the book.

The Korea book does sound interesting.
It would be an interesting project for a modern author to revisist to check out out how things have changed again- from the fifties to now ( after the already dramatic changes from 1938 to then). The trouble is that half of Korea is off limits to reporters.

Im reading a new big thick bio of Albert Einstein (forget the author's name) partially to see if I would judge him to be an aspie or not.
Im still in his early years. He definetly was a bit of a space cadet. He did tend to forget to take his luggage after staying at friends houses.

Yeah, that'd be a problem. Especially as the book mostly takes place in the the, at the time, largely undocumented northern half of Korea.

I've just finished reading "Me Cheeta, an autobiography" by James Lever. Awesome book it is, funny and witty but I didn't know the names of a lot of the old actors and actresses that were mentioned.
