OK, a bit of catching up to do. I was on square 10 reading The Eye of Jade; rolled a 1 and moved to square 11 and read Where the Broken Heart Still Beats: The Story of Cynthia Ann Parker; then rolled a 4 and moved to square 15 and planned to read The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest. So I am on square 15.

Just finished reading The Eye of Jade and am starting The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest.

I've found very interesting books for the philosophy shelf. There's a whole line of books tying philosophy to popular tv shows/movies like House and Philosophy: Everybody Lies. I'm really tempted to read that one!

Of course, I can go with a few classics like Catch-22 or Crime and Punishment.

Sandy - I hope you like BSoG - this was one of my 5 star reads last year and I wish they taught more about this period of history in school because I was clueless about it before I read this

I was away for a week visiting my kids & grandkids, so I didn't have my normal time in the car doing errands. Thus, not much progress on The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie. (When I try to listen when I'm just relaxing, I inevitably fall asleep and lose my place). Now that I'm back home, the pace of my audio-reading should pick up again.

I did read I, Robot for square 44 (fiction). So when I finish Sweetness, I'll be done.
