Just finished Furious Cool: Richard Pryor and the World That Made Him by David Henry and Joe Henry. I gave this one five stars for the raw and emotional portrait it drew of the comedian. I came away liking him less as a person but understanding some of the forces that nurtured both his genius and his inner demons.
Now it's time for The Age of Innocence by Edith Wharton, this month's Mobileread Book Club selection. It promises to be a tale of high society, low morals, and raging hormones from this ever popular author.
