Currently I am reading 3 books.

I am Spock, by Leonard Nimoy.
The Elder Gods, by David and Leigh Eddings.
And Angels and Demons, by Dan Brown.

All very good.
Angels and Demons is next on my list. I heard the movie was pretty good.

Haven't seen it yet because I wanted to read the book first, but I hear very good things about it.

That which is dead, may not eternal lie. But with stranger aeons, even Death may die. - H. P. Lovecraft

Chemistry. The central Science, 8th Edition
(I just like to look at the pictures ;D)
To know anything and to know it well, involves a profound sense of all things remaing yet unknown  to you.

I just finished The Man Who Loved Books Too Much: The True Story of a Thief, a Detective, and a World of Literary Obsession by Allison Hoover Bartlett.  It's ** out of 5.  I definitely didn't like it.  It dragged way too much.  I tried starting Manhatten Hunt Club by John Saul but couldn't even get past 3 pages.  So now, I am now reading The Quiet Girl by Peter Hoeg.  We'll see how it goes.  It's a mystery and written by the same author as Smilla's Sense of Snow (which I loved).

 I finished reading Oryx and Crake by Margaret Atwood. Heavily entertaining, If I had to rate it 5 of 5 stars.
I started reading The Year of the Flood also by Margaret Atwood. It takes place in the same universe as "Oryx and Crake", sort of like a sequel.

Re-Reading the Grand Tour by Ben Bova.  I Wish they were all on Kindle (or something I can convert to it) - I really don't like talking books.   ;D
