I'm a non-fiction junkie. Recently finished The Weather Makers by Tim Flannery. Asked for The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins for Christmas. Reading The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster in the meantime.

What are you reading?

I just finished The God Delusion. It was well-written, but Dawkins is preaching to the converted with me.

Most of my reading these days comes in the form of audio books on my way to work. Right now I'm "reading" 1776 by David McCullough. I recently finished "reading" The Plot Against America by Philip Roth and The Taking by Dean Koontz.

Currently reading Night Draw Near by Anthony Shadid. It's about the war and occupation from the Iraqi viewpoint. It's really illuminating.

There and Back Again by Pat Murphy. Just finished The Sorrows of Empire by Chalmers Jonnson. Both recommended.

I usually don't like non-fiction, and generally hate biographies....but, I'm currently reading "A Rage to Live", a biography of Richard and Isabel Burton....what a life that man lived.
