What are you reading?

It is good! I've shamefully never got round to reading any additional Huxley which now I think about it seems like a huge oversight.

I've just started Gender Trouble by Judith Butler. It's pretty heavy going, the kind of book where I have to read sentences multiple times to get the full meaning. But interesting!

I started The Stand (the uncut version) earlier in the summer.
While I read a few other books, I put it down for a bit, but I just now picked it back up.
I have about 200 pages left, and I have to say, this has already become one of my favorite books of all time.
This is the first Stephen King book I've ever read, and I've gotta say, I want to check out more of his stuff after this.

I read that a few years ago. It's a pretty long read, but it does hold your interest and doesn't get too complicated to enjoy.
Haven't read any King since, or before, but the Stand was definitely a nice long read. Keep with it, dude!

Yeah, I've enjoyed the length.
I feel like it makes the world seem so much more real.
I definitely don't plan to stop, it has thoroughly sucked me in.

I is reading this:

Oliver Sacks is mah man. If I ever had a role model/inspiration in my teen years it would be him.

Kim Stanley Robinson's Mars Trilogy.

I'm halfway through the second (Green Mars). It's a really well researched "future history" of the colonisation of Mars. There's generally a lot of philosophical musing punctuated by very occasional moments of action. It's rather thought provoking though.

I finished reading Wool last week and now I'm listening to Shift (during my commute). If you're into post-apocalyptic sci-fi, check out Hugh Howey's work.

Yeah, really interesting books. Not the most interesting in a literary or character sense but I love the thought that has gone into the development of a world over such a long timescale.

Reading the local phone book. Loads of characters but I'm finding the plot a little thin.

Actually reading "Where did our love go". It's a biography about Motown music scene in the 60s but more about Gordy Berry the labels founder. He is also Redfoos dad. Good read.

[HorseyBoy]

Just started reading this. Really good so far. It's a riff on the Billy the Kid story, filmed by Brando in 1961 as "One-Eyed Jacks".

[snipelfritz]

I found the autobiography of Herman "Ze German" Rarebell, drummer for The Scorpions, at work for some light ironic reading entertainment in between calls.

[Twangasaurus]

Started Ship of Fools last night.
