    The official "What book are you reading?" thread....

    I'm not sure this will be successful....but we'll see how it goes.

    I'm juggling 3 books right now.

    Moby Dick
    Black Like Me
    How the Other Side Lives

    For conversation's sake:

    Favorite book: Women by Charles Bukowski
    Least favorite book: Ape and Essence by Aldous Huxley

    I just finished Henry James' The Turn of the Screw, I think I may pick up Malcolm Gladwell's The Tipping Point next.

          Let's try to keep this to people who have actually completed a real book. No magazines, newspapers, forums or internet articles please.

                    Revisiting "Catcher in the Rye".

                    Every day I wake up we drink a lot of coffee and watch the CNN
                    Every day I wake up to a bowl of clover honey and let the locusts fly in.
                    Lobsterbacks attack the town again
                    Wrap all my things in aluminum
                    Beams of darkness streak across the sky
                    Pink rays from the ancient satellite
                    Every time I look out my window same three dogs looking back at me.
                    Every time I open my windows cranes fly in to terrorize me.

                        God that's a rough read. Best of luck to you. His transcripted speech to the public was hard enough.

                          Interesting thread. We'll see how long it takes to turn into a typical R3V pissing match.

                          The Tipping Point is an excellent book, if a bit dry at times.

                          I haven't been reading nearly as much since I stopped flying every week and my daughter was born. I try to alternate fiction with non, but it depends on what is released.
