OT: What are you reading now?

Or perhaps ON topic. Maybe you're reading a text on tattoos, piercings,
etc.?

I hope so, too, but it will have to wait for now. I'm currently reading
James Rollins' Map of Bones to be followed by either Stephen King's
Cell or another Rollins book, Black Order.

What are you reading now?

"Still Life With Crows" by Preston and Child, again.
"Extra Virgin" by Annie Hawes, again.
Waiting for Miss Manners to get here.

life, the Universe and everything else, posted this tasty tidbit :

For fun :
The Da Vinci Code.....
I know...a bit late...
Not a very interesting book.

Before that, all the books by Douglas Adams.

For work :
All kinds of legal stuff that I find very interesting, Supreme Court
rulings, things like that.
Statistics about economy, fiscal matters and Government finance in
general, less interesting, but I need to know.

That's about it, I guess...

I just finished that not too long ago. Read Brown's Angels and Demons
first and then picked up his Deception Point. Enjoyed both of those.

I'll respectfully disagree on that point. But I'm notoriously difficult
to disappoint in that regard.

Wasn't too happy about the ending of Stephen King's Dark Tower, but
even that grew on me.

(hangs head in shame)

Still haven't read any Douglas Adams.

I liked it too, I haven't see the movie though.
I'm about to start The Jesus Papers.
