I'm currently reading children's stories in German...because I suck at composing a sentence that doesn't make me sound/read like a two year old and children's books are an easy way to become more familiar with proper structure and conjugation.

Vor einem großen Walde wohnte ein armer Holzhacker mit seiner Frau und seinen zwei Kindern; das Bübchen hieß Hänsel und das Mädchen Gretel.

I'm more into e-books than normal books lately.

Reading: The Church of Satan by Michael A. Aquino, some satanic magazines in pdf form and The history of the Devil by Paul Carus. The last real book I read was No Angel by Jay Dobyns.

I'm currently re-reading The Three Musketeers. If anyone hasn't read it, it's a great book. I haven't met anyone who's read it and didn't wish they could be D'Artagnan.

I'm also trying to finish Might Is Right, when I have the time. I'm not crazy about some of the ani-semitic statements, but looking past them, I think it's an interesting read.

Having put Atlas Shrugged down halfway through a while back (I love her writing style but damn it cab get just so repetitive) I felt the urge to pick it back up again but found that I must have it stored in another state. So I went to the library and, on high recommendation from Draculesti, picked up the Fountainhead. Lets hope I get through this one.

I am slowly making my way back into Edmund Husserl.

I am reading two books at the moment - a book by Paul Ricoeur on Husserl's work, which came out through Northwestern University some time ago. I am also reading The Cambridge Companion to Husserl, which is a series of essays by different writers.

I want to really nail these introdcutions down and then move back into Cartesian Meditations and the Ideas by Husserl himself.

I read these works years ago, but had a limted understanding of them to be honest.

I very much like the idea of a rigorous science of consciousness which acts as a sort of first foundation upon which the sciences and other domains of knowledge are based. I have to admit that at times I am Cartesian minded.

I hope to present some posts on my reading which I hope will interesting.

I just got finished reading "To Kill A Mockingbird" and "A Separate Peace". They were school summer reading assignments. To Kill A Mockingbird was okay, the symbolism was nice. A Separate Peace, to be honest, was in my opinion a tedious, horrible read.

Books I want to Read:
Five Classics (Five ancient Chinese books used by Confucianism)
Qur'an (Islam's holy book)
Tao Te Ching/Dao De Jing (Chinese classic text for Taoism/Daoism)
Vedas (oldest Hindu scriptures)

If you cannot tell, I'm interested in studying religioins. My world religions class should help me learn about other religions this school year.

I'm currently reading:

Goddess of the Market: Ayn Rand and the American Right, a new Rand biography by Jennifer Burns. I've never read a biography of her before, so I'm enjoying this quite a lot.

I'm reading this on the heels of Rand's The Virtue of Selfishness.

I just went back reading parts of Göran Häggs Mussolini biography called En studie i makt (a study of power). The story fascinates me how someone who made all the rights could suddenly do all wrongs and how he ended murdered and only as a puppet for Hitler. He had it all and lost it all.

I also currently listen to Herman Hesses Siddharta. I havent gotten very far yet but I do enjoy it.

Finished the Fountainhead. Loved it.

I've started Steven Pinker's The Blank Slate: The Modern Denial of Human Nature.
Gathering some much more informed ideas about the brain to replace my inaccurate ones.

I am a little over halfway reading a science fiction novel called " Dune " by Frank Herbert. It has been around for awhile and a friend of mine recommended that I read it. I am soon to buy the other books that are in companion to it such as Children of Dune and Heretics of Dune. I might even make a thing of reading the entire Dune series, and other works related to Dune by Kevin J. Anderson and Frank Herberts son, Brian Herbert.

I find it a great science fiction novel to that of the likes of The Lord of the Rings and Star Wars. I know LOTR is not sci fi, but the stories are just as complex with language, culture and folklore within the stories themselves.
