      I've begun reading another book on the side: "Europe since 1980" by Ivan T. Berend. Good so far. Shows what a history nerd I am, I guess.

        I am also reading this book. It is a good read.
        But I think it has more pages of footnotes than any book I have ever read.

                        • Just about to start Gil Scott Heron's 'The Vulture' which I purchased secondhand yesterday in the Salvation Army charity shop, along with a Goldfrapp promo single.

                          Coincidentally, about a quarter of an hour earlier I had just purchased Gil Scott Heron's 'Moving Target' on c.d. , as a replacement for my worn-out vinyl copy...

                              • Just finished Germinal by Zola. Pretty rough stuff, but a great book!

                                I'm reading a A Game of Thrones by George R.R. Martin. So far, I really don't see what's all the fuss about. Pretty generic fantasy, IMO.
