Going slowly in bundles of three books. After all are done reading I move to the next three. Keeping non-fiction and fiction balanced as much as I can. Adding one japanese book at a time.
Cal Newport, How to Be a High School Superstar
Haruki Murakami, What I Talk About When I Talk About Running
Twyla Tharp, The Creative Habit
----------
I'd love to add it to my list!

The High King of Montival by S.M. Stirling
The 7th book in the awesome "Change/Emberverse" series.

I'm just finishing up the book I'm reading - and I should start this one tomorrow. Maybe we should start a MR book club.

I tried that in our other forum, but it didn't gain much traction.
I'm currently trying to figure out what to read next......

That's on my Kindle purchase list. It looks good.....let me/us know what you think.....
"Death to the BCS"
anyone who cares or is passionate about college football should read it-
You will be shocked how much the people who run a bowl game make off of one game on one day with amateur athletes who's teams can loose millions on the game

Got a couple on the go.
1) The Etymologicon by Mark Forsyth; a thoroughly hilarious and interesting read, I would recommend this to EVERYONE.
2) Imperialism is the highest stage of Capitalism by Lenin; one of his texts while he was in exile in Switzerland, i'm not a communist, but was recommended this as a good and informative description of the development of early 20th century monopoly in Banking and Commodities. Probably not one for the strong willed (ie. those who will immediately discount it for its author) however very interesting and quite short.
3) A Country is Not A Company by Paul Krugman; picked this up for £1 and read a few pages on the bus home from school yesterday, very interesting and perceptive like all of Krugman's writing, however is incredibly short and has large text. Useful for those wanting to understand why America has a failing economic policy (and why many people suggest a solution that wont be successful).
