I just finished Faulkner's "Go down Moses" and am about 1/2 way though "Fountainhead" for about the 4th time.

On the technical side I'm still skimming through Poynter's volumes 1 & 2.

Jone's Embodying Forgiveness

It pointed me to two other books I need to read. I can't remember them now. But one was about the holoucast, I think it was called "The Sunflower"?

I'm half way through The Gold Coast by Nelson DeMille. So far it's very good.

Smoking is a combination test for intelligence and resistance to marketing/peer pressure. All smokers have failed at least one of these.

"Fluke" or "I know why the winged whale sings" by Christopher Moore.

Very interesting conceptually, and the guy is a freakin' hilarious writer. I'm planning on picking up all his books when I find them.

I usually spend a couple of leisure hours a day with H.W Smyth or Frederic Wheelock.

Start with Lamb. That is the funniest book I have ever read.

Because of another thread like this, I ordered Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts. Many people highly recommended it. It came in the mail today.
From the looks of it, I wouldn't have picked it up at the book store or the library. I hope it's as good as everyone said. It's 936 pages long...

I recently read "Stiff" by Mary Roach. It explores the curious lives of cadavers. Very interesting. this thread reminds me of a line from THE RANCH. Compliments of Mike Rome..."This ain't no book club, we're all gonna die!"
