Just Finished The Solitary Self. It is the third book in a trilogy of biographies on Jean Jacques Rousseau. I just started reading Blinded by the Right by David Brock. Looks to be interesting

Just finished The Emperor's Gift. I love the Gray Knights, so have been anxiously waiting for this book since I heard about it in December. Best BL book I've read. I almost cried when I finished because, no matter how many time I reread it, I will never again have the wonder of reading it for the first time.

Snagged the first Gotrek and Felix Omibus on a whim, read through the books years ago, but still an interesting read.

The entire series is on my wishlist.

Recently finished Natural History by Justina Robson, and now I've started reading Black Wings of Cthulhu, a collection of Lovecraftian horror stories.

I finally finished Daughter of the Empire last week.  Reading the sequel, Servant of the Empire.  I'm up to the part where she's started having sex with him.  This can only end badly.

A Flock Of Swirling Crows And Other Proletarian Writings by Kuroshima Denji. Sweet Jesus, but those stories are depressing.

1Q84 - first time reading a Japanese novel - very interesting and strange so far...

Reamde by Neal Stephenson was very good - probably his most accessible to date....
I want to be unique.....just like everybody else

Took me forever, but I finished reading Fabric Of The Cosmos by Brian Greene.

It was pretty good, some of the analogies weird childish though. I reccomend it if you want a basic overview of quantum physics and what it entails, but the later chapters about multiple dimensions are a bit too scifi for my taste.

Now I shall delve into Evolution: The first 4 billion years. Since I dont know enough about it
