I just finished "what lips my lips have kissed" which is an autobiography of my favorite poet, Edna St. Vincent Millay.

Me too (though not "again."). Am currently almost exactly halfway through the trilogy but more than halfway through if you count the hobbit. Which puts me in the middle of the two towers.

Aww, come on, Dunc... only halfway through? ;)

I'm reading Brave New World... and Case for Christ (Lee Strobel). I'm not sure who Brave New World is by, however.

On the third LOTR book in the trilogy, three down (yes, I can do math, the hobbit too though) and the silmarrillion next if I can manage...

You have my respect if you can make it through the Silmarillion. Good book, but I think Tolkien wrote it like a history book, unlike the style he wrote LotR and the Hobbit in. :D
