Just got back from a 1 1/2 week vacation (Canadian rockies) and keeping myself out of trouble both at the airport and in the evenings at all the tourist traps I decided to do a lot of reading.

Reread: Straw Dogs by John Gray

Read:

Soul of the Marionette - John Gray
Dune - Frank Herbert

Started: Brazen Vessel by Peter Grey and Alkistis Dimech.

I am reading two different books for very different reasons, haha. I am reading Fundamentals of Information Systems by Stair and Reynolds- damn intelligent by serious dudes- for exam that is incoming. It is my last chance to clear the exam. For fun's sakes i am reading this Gaiman masterpiece - Good Omens, once more before indulging in the show.

I am almost finished reading The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon by Stephen King and am trying once again to get a clear understanding of what Naked Lunch by William S. Burroughs is really about.

The Doom That Came To Sarnath And Other Stories, by H.P. Lovecraft.

An anthology of Lovecraft's lesser known works which I'm not only currently rereading, but which was the very first Lovecraft book I ever owned.

Quackery: A Brief History of the Worst Ways To Cure Everything by Lydia Kang, MD and Nate Pedersen. Informative, shocking (blowing smoke up ones butt was a legit medical practice at one point), and always entertaining. Just started the chapter on bloodletting.

I LOVE this book!! I'll tell anything with a pulse to read it. It's definitely one of my very favorite books!
Since you're enjoying it I also recommend a book called Unmentionables: a Victorian Lady's Guide to Sex, Marriage, and Manners, by Therese O'neill. Equally funny and easy to read.
