David Lee Roth "Crazy From the Heat". He's crazy alright. Still can't put it down!

a bit of a different genre...

I am reading the Anita Blake series by Laurel K. Hamilton. The series is about a zombie raising, vampire killing, necromancer and her life protecting St. Louis from monsters. The series is around 14 books and is a very humorus, exciting book that will keep you awake during boring classes. I highly recommend this book and so do reviewers who said it was "An R rated Buffy the Vampire Slayer".

Wow, I write book reports too often.
It's a wonderful thing to be spoiled in the way of food.

I'm re-reading Cryptonomicon. It's a tale set in WWII and the late 1990s with the events interweaving in the different families lives. Plus you learn a whole bunch about cryptography along the way. One of my favorite books.

Cookbook-wise, I have a stack from the library on Korean, Veitnamese and Indonesian food.

I was given a copy of Infidel by Ayaan Hirsi Ali. She was born in Somalia, sought asylum in the Netherlands, and eventually became a member of the Dutch Parliament. According to the book jacket, her goal is to balance western Democratic ideals with Islamic ideals. I've been told it's a quick read but lately I've not been much in the mood for reading. :(

Still, the book looks very interesting and worth reading.

I haven't read this book, but saw the movie, and it's one of my favorites.

On the other hand, I read the book Congo and it's one of my 2 favorite novels. Later the movie came out and it wasn't that great, so I heard, so I didn't see it. I didn't want to tarnish the book experience.

My other favorite book is Shibumi, by Trevanian.
