I finished Fellowship of the Ring last night. The funniest line was "So _____ and _____ continued on the final leg of the journey"

...there's still two books to go...is this really the "final leg"...?

Reading The Tipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell.

Really really interesting book about how epidemics start (both disease and social related).

The complete life's little instruction book. Just a page or two a day of this
storm of swords. Not that far yet but i have a good feeling about it. It seems to get right into all the action of clash of kings

"You Must Be New Around Here" by Dick Pitman. An intriguing first-hand account of a British journalist's experiences living in the embattled African nation of Rhodesia at the end of the Bush War in the late 1970s.

I've gotten into audio books. Been making good use of my 1 hour a day of commute to/from work.

I've already listened to Ender's Shadow (takes place at the same time as Ender's Game but from the point of view of a different character). I"m now working on Shadow of the Hegemon which takes place right after Ender's Shadow.

"Lone Survivors: How we came to be the only humans on earth" by Chris Stringer an anthropologist/paleontologist from England's Natural History museum. The latest developments in the study of human evolution. Written for the layman it seems pretty good so far though I'm only about 1/4 through.

For Whom the Bell Tolls - Ernest Hemingway. It's the first book of his that I've ever read, and even though I'm only a hundred pages in I'm falling in love with it. Definitely going to read more of his stuff after this one is finished.

The Diamond Age by Neil Stephenson. It's a beast but a fairly well written one. Not as good as Cryptonomicon or Snow Crash, but pretty decent.
