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.

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:

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.

How do you read a book in two days? -eek-

It's possible. Blew through Ray Garton's "Live Girls" in an 8 hour shift at work once.

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.

When I went on sick call once in AIT I read "Congo" in one day. It was a great read.

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.
