Im currently not reading a book. I am currently thumbing through wikipedia. I start on one topic and before I notice I have read several other topics all because of the inner links and I find that I have learned much within a few hours or so.

I'm going to begin "The Big Sky" by A.B. Guthrie Jr. I've been reading a lot of westerns lately since I decided to read the original book of True Grit.

BUMP!

On Monsters: An Unnatural History of Our Worst Fears

This is a pretty damn good before-bed read. I got it off a Monster Talk interview, which was entertaining in itself, but the book is so much more in-depth.

Just finished reading George Martin's second Tale of Ice and Fire book, A Clash of Kings, which I'd recommend to any fantasy fans, this series is filling my Wheel of Time shaped hole whilst waiting for the final book!

I'm finally starting to read Dawkins' The Greatest Show on Earth now, after having it sat on my bedside table for months.

I am currently reading 2030 by Albert Brooks. It is pretty good so far, we'll see where it goes.

I am reading Tim's Keller's The Reason for God, I have found it unimpressive, although it is not laughable like other apologetic works say by Ray Comfort.
