Whatcha Readin'?
 
I like to keep two (or more) books going at the same time. I just started reading this novel, apparently the "definitive novel about American politics," according to the Times:



And to begin studying for the LSAT I'm reading this very dry but slightly interesting book:

I'm currently re-reading all of George Carlin's books chronologically.
I just started the other day, so I'm still on Brain Droppings.

I'm not reading much at the moment. I'm officially still in Die Unendliche Geschichte (The Neverending Story), great book, but it needs time, which I don't feel I have. I say feel, because I do have time for Pokémon and other stupid stuff.
Need to finish my MSc thesis.

A week ago I wondered if I ever finished The War of the Worlds or not. It certainly didn't leave much of an impression (other than being incredibly boring). *grabs the book and reads the ending*
Ah, I remember now. Yeah I did finish it.

I have a large list of books I want to read in the summer time. Bryson's book is a pleasure to read, though.

Just started reading this. I'm very interested in the psychology aspects of this. So far it's just been a little background.

I also got a couple more psychology books at this used book store. 3 books for about $6, good deal.

Rereading through American Psycho. Have not had a chance to pick anything up new, and no idea what I should get.


Suggestions?

CoT can be a little heavy. Make it through it, the next book (Knife of Dreams) really picks up again.

Just began
