absolutely INCREDIBLE book. Got it for Christmas and already almost done reading it. Will make you blink, believe me. ESPECIALLY if you are scientifically minded, it'll appeal to you.

Next by Creighton is great. Grisham's The Innocent Man was amazing. I picked it up thinking it was a novel but it is a true story. Brother Odd by Koontz was good too and Cross by Patterson was awesome.

I've been waiting for some Koontz novels lately, but I guess I just have to buy them myself.

No books this year.
:(

I got the next installment in the Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan.

Ronnie O'Sulivans autobiography.

I got the chris moyles book

I got all 3 David LaChapelle Photo books :)

I got some book for internet protocols.

I've been reading a lot of consumer books, tapping into the mind of today's consumer as well as some good branding and management books.

For leisure, I've started A Wedding in December. Not far enough in it to give a good opinion.

Got 4 books...'was really happy since I was all out of stuff to read ! :)
Don't know if they're good yet, most probably though... I could give you the titles, but they're all in french so...

If you want an interesting read though, try Life of Pi - I personnaly loved it, very different and orignial !! :)

Good book

i got a book called great canadian landscapes. some cool photos in it.

Since you asked, right now I'm reading this book which is really amazing. Before that I finished this one right after reading this book, which changed the way I see many things.

Blue Like Jazz should be read be every person who wants to claim to be a Christian. It's fantastic.

I'll check it out, thanks for the heads up :)

My brother is an editor for a national science magazine. As such, he gets a LOT of books for free. And since he mistakeningly thinks we are even 1/10 as smart as he, he sends them to us. It's become a joke as to who gets the oddest book.

Personally, I just finished reading the Alchemist and am now reading Reagan: A life in letters.
