Just picked up IRAs, 401(k)s & Other Retirement Plans .. Strategies for Taking Your Money Out... by NOLO

AWhole New Life by Reynolds Price about his illness
Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House
Radical Homemakers mentioned here. I may not finish this one. It's a little more polemical a tone than I care for.

I just finished Small Fry by Steve Jobs’s daughter. It was a coming of age story about a girl who just happened to have a famous, rich father. The guy didn't make her life easy. She lived with him only off and on in her teen years.

A tiny tome (actually a commencement speech) called This is Water. Definitely food for thought.

David Foster Wallace. My son gave me that book as a gift. One of my favorites.

I don't think we have a lot of horror fans here, but I just read one of the best horror novels ever, "The Ruins" by Scott Smith. It was published in 2006 and was apparently also made into a movie; I'm not sure how I missed it. He did such a great job setting up the background to the story that I was sufficiently horrified before anything even happened. Now that's some good horror writing!

I like Horror if it is well done.

I think I read a couple recommended by you, The Chalkman was one of them, another one was The Boy Who Drew Monsters.

And I hate to admit this, but I have never read a David Foster Wallace book. I can’t believe I’m saying that I aloud, it is embarrassing.
