    Anarchy, State and Utopia. A challenging, but insightful read.

    Currently reading The Tuscan Child by Rhys Bowen. I really loved In Farleigh Field so of course I had to try out her new novel. While I am enjoying the mystery and the characters, I also can't help but hate this novel for making me crave Italian food whenever I open it up.

    Yeah, that would be a problem for me, too, since Italian food is my favorite.

    I'm currently reading Eleanor Oliphant in Complete Fine for a book club at my work. It's an interesting read, but so far I feel that it isn't quite worth the hype around it.

    I loved In Farleigh Field too, especially as I got it for £3 haha I'd appreciate a head up on what you think of The Tuscan Child!

    Also recently finished Stephen King's "On Writing" which I'd recommend to anyone who likes -- or wants -- to write.

    I read that about ten years ago.
    Also read Wood's Americanization of Benjamin Franklin a few years before that.

    Currently I'm working my way through

    Dracula by Bram Stoker

    Read Dracula over 20 years ago. I thought it was great, Major, and worthy of it's legendary status.

    Two new books to read: Transfer of Power (1999), the first Mitch Rapp book by Vince Flynn...



    ... and, on my Kindle and in honor of its 200th anniversary, Frankenstein and the Critics - it includes Mary Shelley's original 1818 unexpurgated story, as well as contemporary reviews both positive and negative.

    Been a while since I last read that (though it was in a pocket-size paperback back in the day . . . )
