Chainfire, by Terry Goodkind. My review so far: Better than the last two, but still worse than the first few.

Skinny Dip -Carl Hiaasan-starts out an ok romp but quickly disintegrates into the fantastical. Good idea gone bad.

My favorite is "Skin Tight" My current read is "Enemies, Foreign and Domestic" by Matthew Bracken. I'm already pissed off, and I'm within 30 pages of the beginning.

Just finished 'Ludmilla's Broken English' by DBC Pierre. Fantastic book, would recommend to anyone.
Just started 'Love and Other Near Death Experiences' and so far it's as funny as I imagined it would be |

Not reading so much as looking at Flight volumes one, two, and three. They're really beautiful.

The Assassins' Gate, by George Packer. A disturbing look at the leadup to the Iraq war. Recommended to me by my dad and brother.

Rereading Terry Pratchett's Jingo. Am also reading a book called Melodies by some German guy whose name I've temporarily forgotten. It's about an alchemist in renaissance Italy and how, while trying to create the elixir of life and all that, he discovers something cool with music.
After that, I have Titan by Ben Bova waiting. |
