Booklist

I go through periods of no books for months, then I actually read for a while. Reading phase currently. Last few months:

1 Castle of Crossed Destinies, Italo Calvino
2 Fooled by Randomness, Nassim Taleb
3 Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Jo Rowling
4 The Social Climber's Guide to High School, Robyn Schneider
5 Still Life with Woodpecker, Tom Robbins
6 Another Roadside Attraction, Tom Robbins (there ya go bro!)
7 Going Postal, Terry Pratchett

1 - eh. indulgent etude.
2 - annoying but turns very good in the last 3rd
3 - see elsewhere
4 - cotton candy
5 - light, funky
6 - meatier version of 5, adjusts life attitude (a la Zen...)
7 - Very funny, love Pratchett's humor, good you don't have to have read his others
