What are you reading?


General Discussions ( Anything Goes )

Hi Gaabi. I just read, back to back, "Beautiful Boy" by David Sheff and "Tweak" by David's son, Nic Sheff. Both books are about methamphetamine addiction, from the perspectives of father and son. Also, recently, "Gitanjali" by Rabindranath Tagore and "Musicophilia" by Oliver Sacks. Before that, "A Walk in the Woods" by Bill Bryson, "The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest" by Stieg Larsson, and three books by Jon Ronson: "Them", "The Men Who Stare at Goats", and "The Psychopath Test: A Journey Through the Madness Industry".

I'm just starting on "Nonviolence: The History of a Dangerous Idea" by Mark Kurlansky with "Noon: A Novel" by Aatish Taseer in queue.

John,Do you have a bicycle? If so, you might enjoy the "Velo-Way" there in Austin. Take Mopac Expwy. to LaCrosse.
