No, I will probably re-read Process and Reality by Whitehead. I am getting to an age where I like to re-read some books that had a real impact upon me during my college days.:tu

My usual weirdness in the reading department is:

Children of the Mist
FIPS Pub 46 - Data Encryption Standard
Bluetooth Core Specification Version 4.0

The first one has the best plot.

For me, The Stand & the Dark Tower series are probably the pinnacle of his work. He fell out of favor with me as an author in the 90's, though--too many words, too much "woe is me the poor tortured writer" bleck. And I never could get into much of his most recent stuff.

But I have to say, Under the Dome is right up there at the top of his best writing. Great mixture of horror, terror, dark comedy, a real human interest story. Very engaging from start to finish.

I just finished Under the Dome a few weeks back... it was a great book and highly recommended.

now I'm just finishing up "sex tips for pandas" a book by a pair of british podcasters, it's fairly amusing if you are into that sort of thing.

Not sure if this will benefit anyone but since Border's Book Store is closing some locations, their eReader (KoBo) is on sale for $70. It's very basic but that's all I needed. If you plan on reading at night just pick up a book light there at 30% off :D

Currently reading Fragile Things by Neil Gaiman. Just a collection of his short stories. Have really enjoyed all of his books so far. Would recommend anything by Stephen King or Robert McCammon. Also enjoyed Stieg Larssons trilogy Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and Sergei Lukyanenko's Nightwatch series.
