Apr. 16th, 2006 04:25 pmFinished Beyond Freedom and Dignity and picked up The Final Days by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, their follow-up to All the President's Men. I'm about 50 pages in and it is so incredibly satisfying, especially after my last two terrible books.
Also of note, Shadow of the Giant, Orson Scott Card's latest in the Shadow series, was finally released in paperback format, so I have added that the The Pile, too. I'm hoping that this is the last of these books as Card generally keeps a series alive when he really should just leave it alone (you couldn't just leave it at Speaker for the Dead, could you Orson?).
In Meat Space news, I'm starting to get psyched for Tuesday. That's the day I have picked for my trial day for biking to work (and back again at night). It's supposed to be sunny with a high of 17 degrees (low of 3 in the morning), which sounds ideal. Hopefully high winds won't be an issue.
