Whacha readin'?

I'm reading a biography of John Paul Jones.

My favorite part so far is when the American fleet (consisting of two armed merchantmen, two brigs and a sloop) first sets sail to do battle with the world's most powerful navy...and promptly gets stuck in the ice.

I just finished reading The Unbearable Lightness of being in Aberystwyth.

I've recently read most of Dan Browns books. I had the Da Vinci Code for while but only just read it a couple weeks ago. Definatly over-rated. Hyped up too much I guess. It isn't bad but I guess I was expecting something more. I actually think I liked Digital Fortress and Deception Point better. Although I had Deception Point figured out just because he used the same formula for it as for Da Vinci and Digital Fortress.

I liked the Da Vinci code a lot since it was the first fiction book I read in awhile. After becomming convinced that the end of the world was going to come during my lifetime, reading any sort of fiction no matter how overrated was fun for a change

edit: Read The Rule of Four right after. It's kind of like the Da Vinci Code, but somewhat better imo. Less action though.

i'm now waiting for a copy of A Scanner Darkly by Philip K. Dick (the trailer or the upcoming movie gave the idea, i thought i'd try reading the book first...)

WHS. Except the book is Godel, Escher, Bach, and I think it's probably the 6th or 7th time...

[Ramo]

"The Power Broker" by Robert Caro (the same dude who wrote "Master of the Senate," etc.), the biography of Robert Moses, who was the man behind the curtain for decades in 20th Century NYC.

"Vineland" by Thomas Pynchon, about hippies living in the Reagan-era with his typical absurdist humor.

"Galois Theory" by Ian Stewart (for school)

And several other books (I have a really short attention span), but those are the primary ones...
