I just finished the graphic novel "Maus" by art speigleman, which was a fantastically haunting story which I imagine was quite difficult for Mr. Speigleman to write. I also recently read "The Great Gatsby." It took me far too long to actually read that book, but now that I have, I love it

Dark Tower. Almost done. Thinking about The Wind Through The Keyhole next to finish the series. I have a ton of other things I want to get into though.

In the Garden of Beast by Erik Larson. I love Devil In The White City. This is decent so far, but kinda dry. Hope it picks up.

I'm currently reading Beyond Tantra: Healing Through Taoist Sacred Sex. This seems like a really basic set and setting and couples communication book. So far (about halfway through) I haven't encountered much in the way of actual meditative practice. Hopefully there will be some deeper information further in the book.

Just finished - "By Order of The President" by W.E.B. Griffin. It's the first book in a series called "The Presidential Agent."
If any of you are Griffin fans, readers of his older series; Brotherhood of War, The Corps, Badge of Honor - then his newer series' where his son is doing more of the writing are disappointments,

Now reading "First Team" by Larry Bond. It's OK.

"The Swerve, How the World Became Modern" by Stephen Greenblatt
Describes the "discovery" in the 1500s of ancient pagan roman and greek texts - and specifically the rational humanist philosophy - and how those texts and that philosophy influenced the renaissance.

Anyone on here use the GoodReads app? If so, we should be friends and then we can read the reviews of the books we read.
