At the moment im 1/2 way through Memoirs of a Geisha .....

Im loving it,,,,i just got through reading Emperess Orchid too,,,think i must have an oriental fetish right now......

What you reading now and what kinda books do u tend to go for ????

I am presently reading, World Mythology, Third Edition, and, Generations, History of America's Future 1584 to 2069.

I tend to read mainly history or related fields. When doing lighter reading I like mysteries.

I also try to read what my grandchildren are reading so I can discuss the books with them. That is how I got totally hooked on Harry Potter.

Memoirs of a Geisha is teachin me the art of Flirting,,,,,,,so,dont be suprised if i seem a little full on.... ;)

The 48 laws of Power. A very interesting and thought provoking read.

Here's a link to the laws themselves, the book provides indepth examples of adherence or transgression of each law using historical examples and the resulting outcome of such.

Very Sorry 007.....

But that book sounds soooo boring to me....:D

I like a little Smut and excitment in my read....

I recently picked up Crime and Punishment by Dostoyevsky.

I enjoy reading food and travel writing. Stuff like "The Soul Of A Chef", "Kitchen Confidential", "Blue Highways", "On The Road", the Theroux books, the Bryson books. I also read interior design/decoration books to get more inspirations, but I wouldn't really call it reading. I read philosophy books, but usually I am only interested in those that compare/summarize/criticise philosophers and ideas, rather than books that concentrate solely on one philosopher's ideas or books that are the actual works of a particular philosopher. I read film criticism and history.

Don't we have a book section on the forum already?

I just finished two - The Beatles and 100 People Who Are Ruining America

Killing Ground--the Civil War and the Changing American Landscape.

It's about how many historical sites are being turned into parking lots and shopping centers.

fiction is what I like...any kind really ;)

I can't read fiction any more ...unless it is a classic.
