Last book you read?

-Taming of The Shrew
-Othello

Taming of The Shrew was a fun little read. It was refreshing to finally read one of Shakespeare's comedies.

Othello was fun as well, but I'm disappointed that Iago failed in his revenge. Othello's noble nature is also very much an informed ability. He's a gullible fool as soon as he leaves Venice.

Earlier today I finished another book: Timeline, by Michael Crichton. Though I have always been a fan of his, I haven't read several of his books, and after his death I felt I should read the rest. Recently reading Pirate Latitudes just enforced that, so I felt I'd read through another of his I hadn't ever read before. I'm glad I did, it was a fun take on time travel and an interesting mix of his hard science and historical fiction. It's not realistic, sure, but he even admitted that in the Acknowledgments section at the end of the book.

Please don't ever watch the movie version. All his books are better then the movie versions but I really hated Timeline with Paul Walker.

As I wait for the next book in Song of fire and Ice
I'm working on some intellegent readings like

X-Rated Blood Suckers
Starship Troopers
and
World War Z

I have a back log of books I need to finish, most of the stuff I read isn't very conversation worthy with the parents of my girlfriend or some nut in Starbucks.

[Ack]

And now I've finished Timeline, also by Michael Crichton. I'd attempted to read it in the past but just grew bored. Made it through this time though. Much more interesting than I remembered.

Now I'm reading Final Watch, by Sergei Lukyanenko.

The last book I read of my own volition was A Bridge Too Far, by Cornelius Ryan.
The last book I read for school was Brave New World. One of those books everyone has to read, whether you like it or not.

[Ack]

I actually didn't have to read Brave New World until college, and it was for an elective course on the history of science fiction. I didn't really care for it either.

Seven Days In The Art World. A great first hand look at the workings of the contemporary art scene.
