I am currently reading two books on assignment from school (I don't really have time to read any optional stuff). "There Eyes Were Watching God" by Zora Neale Hurston "Averno" (a book of poetry) by Louise Glueck and "Ghosts" by John Banville. I just finished a bunch of Edith Wharton short stories, "The Country Without a Post Office" by Agha Shahid Ali and "Frankenstein."

Just finished "The Worst Hard Time" by Timothy Egan - a fascinating history (United States) of the phenomenal environmental disaster known as The Dust Bowl. http://www.amazon.com/Worst-Hard-Time-Survived-American/dp/061834697X

 

Guns, Germs and Steel is a tremendous book. I think it should be read before Collapse. Both are must reads, IMO.

 

Next on my list is "The End of the Line".

Can someone explain to my how I can hide the website the website and post like Offense's first post? Or point me to a post that explains this?

"Blue Dahlia" by Nora Roberts

-I am a huge fan of romance novels and Nora Roberts is my favorite romance author. I also like LaVyrle Spencer but she's retired now and nothing new comes out from her.

 

"Skinny Bitch" by Rory Freedman and Kim Barnouin

-It's my second time through it and I really love their bluntness and honesty. They don't mince words but tell it like it is and I respect that.
