    Just finished Angels & Demons by Dan Brown. Possibly the best mystery/thriller I've ever read... not just for the story alone, which is awesome, but for the pacing and plot twists. Just when you think you have it figured out, something new emerges and keeps you guessing. I caught a couple of the suprises before they came, but even then it was a satisfying "AHA! I knew it!" kind of read.

    I re-read 'The Climb' and 'Into Thin Air' this weekend.

    I just bought 'Touching the Void', continuing the theme.

    Listening to an audiobook of The Hobbit. Pretty good.
    Also reading The Fellowship of the Ring in bed before sleep.
    Also reading the first book of the Robert Jordan Wheel of Time stuff. Never read them before. They're not bad.
    Finally, also reading Midnight's Children by Salman Rushdie and a small book of short stories by Paul Bowles called A Thousand Camels in the Courtyard. It comes from a Muslim aphorism "A pipe of kif before breakfast gives a man the strength of a thousand camels in the courtyard."

    I like to read a lot of books at a time. The Hobbit and the Fellowship I've read before and am just brushing up on them again, so it's not as confusing as it may seem.
