When I finish this, I get to join the group of people waiting until roughly 2011 for book five, 2020 for book six, and 2039 for book seven. |

Just read:
Persecution and the Art of Writing - Leo Strauss Poems and Plays of Robert Browning (not the whole thing--those plays wore on me) Reading: Guide for the Perplexed - Maimonides Natural Right and History - Leo Strauss From Sea to Sea - Rudyard Kipling |
|

Just started:

Right now I'm reading something like eight books, but the one I started yesterday (and will possibly finish today), is Nelson Polsby's <i>How Congress Evolves: Social Bases of Institutional Change</i>, which is this fascinating account of the development of the House of Representatives from 1947-present.

Unfinished:
Through The Storm - Lynn Spears (halfway) The Education of a Bodybuilder - Arnold Schwarzenegger (Over halfway) Night - Elie Wiesel (20-30 pages away from the end) Currently reading: http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...SH20_OU01_.jpg This is the sequel to The Chosen, which I read some time back (and loved). I started Wednesday and read some at night while on a trip and I'm on page 90-something, which is huge for me to read so much in so short a time. Today it's busy at work so I'm looking to maybe finish it on Sunday/Monday/Tuesday at work (it's 368 pages long). It's an AWESOME book, and deals with Judaism and therapy, two of my favorite subjects. Just getting to the therapy part. |

The Road- I finished No Country For Old Men (excellent btw), and picked this up to read before the movie came out (though I suppose I have more time to do that now). I'm abot 50 pages in and loving it. Magnificently bleak and haunting, and nothing has even happened yet.

Right now, "The Korsun Pocket: The Encirclement and Breakout of a German Army in the East, 1944". Also the last of the Rigante books by Gemmell, "Stormrider" and the "Full Metal Panic" manga. |
About halfway through this, & it's probably going to end up being my favorite book of the year.
