What are you reading: We're a bunch of fat, brainwashed Americans Edition

I'm reading Fast Food Nation right now. I've wanted to read this book for the longest time. It's pretty good so far.

Nothing.

Ah contraire! I am underweight, therefore your argument has been rendered irrelevant.

On topic: Raising the Titanic by Clive Cussler.

Still reading all the same stuff (Mahabharata, Upanishads, Hindu Myths), I also started Brave New World by Aldous Huxley.

Goebbels by Ralf Georg Reuth

Crime and Punishment by Dostoevsky

Right now I'm reading the Dark Elf Trilogy, by R.A. Salvatore.

Before this I read The Door to December by Dean Koontz, and after this I'm probably going to read Selections from Medieval Philosophers I/II.

New Moon (second Twilight book) I'm dead serious. I like it so far since Edward is sooo dreamy. ;)

And Sin Tetas No Hay Paraiso (Without breasts, there is no paradise).

The Bourne Supremacy by Ludlum. I also just started my spiffy new edition of The Iliad - hardcover boxed set with The Odyssey, beautiful volumes, I'm very pleased with them. But they were pricy at $47. I went with the new **** translation. It was a toss up between Lattimore, Fitzgerald, and ****, but Lattimore was only available in paperback and I figured I could read Fitzgerald later in life. I decided to start with a beautiful translation that sacrifices some accuracy for readability. I'm also in the middle of The New Lifetime Reading Plan by Clifton Fadiman and John S. Major. I cannot recommend this book enough. Perfect for anyone who is passionate about books or wants an overview of the history of world literature and it's authors.

EDIT: What the heck Gamespot? Apparently Robert F-a-g-l-e-s is a swear word.

precalculus i hate this book :cry:

Hitman: My Real Life In The Cartoon of Wrestling I read a lot of pro wrestling autobiographies, but this one's easily the most...interesting. It's not made by WWE, so the author can say whatever he wants about the company, and trust me, that's a lot of stuff. He was screwed in his last match of the company, and his youngest brother was killed by making an entrance from the ceiling. Great book, but I haven't picked it up in weeks.Razor-Lazor

Still Perfect: The Untold Story of the 1972 Miami Dolphins

I love my Dolphins :P

the dark room. Its pretty good. Love WWII books.

you know what is ridiculous? the other day i tried downloading moon (the sci fi thriller) and all i could find in the search engine was NEW MOON TRAILER.

FML.

The Invisible Man by HG.wells:o smokingsbad

I just finished Speaker for the Dead recently (sequal to Ender's Game). Right now I am debating about reading Xenocide (3rd book in the Ender series) or 1984. Still not sure which I will read next.

Last Man Standing - David Baldacci

I finished reading The Whole Truth (I think that came out last year?) just a couple of weeks ago. Loved the whole conspiracy angle and writing so much I had to go to the library to find more of his work. This one here feels a bit like Tom Clancy, but compared to Rainbow Six, I think I prefer Baldacci's style and storytelling. Especially in The Whole Truth. Last Man Standing keeps getting better, and I'm only on page 121 :P

I just picked up On bullsh*t today.

Duma Key by Stephen King. I've been reading it on and off for a while because the first half of the book was pretty boring, (classic King) but its starting to get really freaky so I'll probably finish it in the next couple of days. I still have The Stand lying around too, so I'll probably try to read that before school starts back up.
