    is it not totally narcissistic of me to have 3 posts so far?

    okay, so because i'm just a tad of the short attention span class,
    i am currently reading as follows:

    Who wrote the Bible, richard friedman

    Narnia (perhaps as i subsitute for the bible...)

    Crisis of Conscience

    A Million Little Pieces

    A Moveable Feast (again).

    >>Who wrote the Bible, richard friedman

    I want to read that one, but haven't scragged a copy yet.

    I'm reading Moby Dick (never read it before, it's quite good), The Power of Now, Five Patients (old one by Michael Crichton), and Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency (Douglas Adams).

    Like you, it depends on where I am. And who I am at the moment.
