Ready, Set, Read!
Well, Nobody inspired me to write this post. She posted a list of all the books she read last year. So I figured it might be interesting to see what is on people's reading lists for next year (so far, anyway.)
Here's mine:
Rebels on the Back Lot, by Sharon Waxman
Truman, by David McCullough
The Ancestor's Tale, by Richard Dawkins
Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norbert, by Susanna Clarke
It's So Much Work to be Your Friend, by Richard Lavoie
Always Running, by Luis J. Rodriguez
Bullets Over Hollywood, by John McCarty
The Hero With a Thousand Faces, Joseph Campbell
The Myth of the Eternal Return, by Mircea Eliade
Collapse, by Jared Diamond
Travel in the Ancient World, by Lionel Casson
The Geography Behind History, by W. Gordon East
Empires of the Plain, by Lesley Adkins
The Fabric of the Cosmos, by Brian Greene
I'm sure I won't finish all of these, but they'll be attempted. I sometimes go a little ADD with books, so you never know how fickle I'll get. But even looking at it now, it looks a fascinating list... in fact, makes me want to dive in to all of them right now.
Good reading. Make sure you post your lists in the comments.
