I noticed I put that in what the blog is about. I tend to read a few books at once... I have a train book, usually a soft cover, as I don't like to carry a heavy book while commuting. Then, I have a by the bed book, that one a tome, a big thick monstrous hardcover. Then there might be another book floating around the house, as well. Also, one is usually brainy (or at least non-fiction), something with action and then, I dunno, whatever catches my fancy.
So, on my plate right now:
Daemons Are Forever, which is the second in a series by Simon Green. Nice, take you away Science Fiction... he tends to be in that Douglas Adams, non-serious yest VERY serious kind of science fiction, Oh you British, ever so much more witty then your American Cousins. C'mon, the main character is Edwin Drood, the title is a play on James Bond and there are puns through the whole book. Plus jokes and references most likely shooting over my head.
The second book is Chomsky on Anarchism. It has all the excitement of an Osmond's concert. It does have the intellectual stimulation I often desire. Plus, it is good before bed as sometimes it gets REALLY dry. I do like his ideas, I like a lot of what he says BUT he lacks the humor found in the Illuminatus! Trilogy (My FAVORITE book ever).
Thats REALLY it for tonight!
