I'm reading the same things I was reading two weeks ago during the last "what are you reading?" thread (Naked, by David Sedaris, and Peter Walsh's It's All Too Much, for those listeners just joining us.) Pretty sad, huh?

I'm always reading a few books at once. Right now, it's Blowing My Cover: My Life as a CIA Spy, Naked in Death, and Opportunity 08: Independent Ideas for America's Next President.

Oooh! I finished It's All Too Much a couple of weeks ago! I love that book!

Now I'm reading Your Money or Your Life (I'm almost finished) and Truffles by the Sea (fiction).

The Great Gatsby. The 'old sport' hasn't lost a step since high school.

I'm reading "History of Japan". Can't remember the author though. Also reading one of Diana Gabaldon's books, they're my bedtime reading..

I read that a couple of years back. Fun book.

Over the weekend I finished "Prisoner of Trebekistan" by Bob Harris. Another fun read. I just started "Bringing Down the House"...don't remember the author. About the group of former MIT students who used their big brains to win a whole lot of money playing blackjack in Las Vegas.

I'm reading (and re-reading) some computer certification books on Linux+. :-( A few weeks ago, I read Flags of Our Fathers. I'm not usually much of a fan of "war" book, but this one was pretty good.

Lynnae - how are you enjoying Your Money or Your Life? I read it a little while back, and thought it was a very inspiring book...I like reading money books, but too many of them keeping re-treading the same ground ("put money in your 401K" "Compound interest is great" "Credit card debt is bad"). I thought that one stood out as being a lot more interesting...
