one of the cool places i was introduced to by a friend was shelfari. it is a community for book lovers who post the books they've read, want, or are currently reading. to the right now, you will be able to see what books i currently read.
yes, there are a number of them. how do i read so much? well, i watch little to none in the way of television (especially now that my Bears are out and the Cubs haven't started--though Lost is set to return). second, i do try to read two hours every day, keeping an active journal. i believe an active mind is a young mind and one way i stay active is to read. one day i was looking at Hitchens book, God is Not Great, and my son asked, "why would you want to read that?" Perhaps one of my greatest spiritual disciplines is to learn from those with whom i disagree.
so, i do little else but read when i'm not doing stuff with my family (yes, okay, you're right, i've got no life!). i usually arise by 5:30am and get in at least a solid hour. however, i still have a ways to go on my doctoral work so that encourages me to read as well.
anways, just wanted to update you on my booklist. i went with the books i am currently reading.
peace,
