I've read Nancy Fridays, collection of men's fantasies called, Men in Love. Which I believe she had compiled and written after the first three. If found it fascinating. The spousal unit read it too, but yet, he didn't want to discuss any of it. What I like is the divine amount of detail the men have in their fantasies.

I just started Prisoners in Paradise by Akmal Shebl, a supernatural mystery in Egypt. I'd never found a book with a trailer ... until now. I am hoping it delivers.

The latest edition of Blue and Gold Illustrated. It's the weekly newspaper that covers Notre Dame football.
Haven't started any new books recently.

i've read too many to list recenly, some research some fiction some non - the new blue media was interesting but dry and a bit "insider". the view from the seventh layer - a collection of short stories - i loved. those are the only two that stand out right now.
still waiting for bonk (too lazy to put it on hold, too cheap to buy it )

Just started rereading The Fellowship Of The Rings. After watch the movies last week I realized it had been almost 20 years since I had read the book and figured it was high time I did again.

I've finally made it to the 6th book in the Wheel of Time. It's taken me a year to get here.

I just started rereading The Servants of Twilight by Dean Koontz. I've read, but it was years ago. I've just barely started it, and already it's sucking me in, lol.

Well, I just bought two books: "The Prosecution of George W. Bush For Murder" by Vincent Bugliosi and "Shadowfires" by Dean Koontz, and I plan on starting them both this weekend.

Antony and Cleopatra: A Novel, by Colleen McCullough. I've read her entire Rome series, which was supposed to end with October Horse, so I was excited to find this new one.
