My wife just picked up Justin Cronins new book "The Twelve" for me. Really enjoyed "The Passage" so high hopes for this one.

Currently reading The Wire in the Blood by Val McDermid, one of my favorite mystery writers. It seems to me that the best mystery authors for the past 10 years are female and British. Probably just my perception but who knows.

LOL sounds as exciting as "Introducing Windows Server 2012 (RTM Edition)" which is my current assignment. If I see the words "cloud computing" one more time I may hurl the thing right through the window.

Started & finished "Ready,Player One" in about 2 days. Great book. Anyone who played video games or grew up in the 80s would love it.

I'm 10 books deep into the Robert Jordan series Wheel of Time. This is my second time through this series, and last time I stopped at book 10. It is such a long, boring book. Pushing my way through this one so I can get through tot he ending.

You will have a little wait -- the last book is scheduled to be available on January 8, 2013.

I am planning to reread the entire series after I have the final book. I lost count of how many times I have reread the series...
