Here are the 11 books that I’m currently reading:

One religious book:
1) TaNaKh: The Holy Scriptures (JPS 1985)

Two course syllabuses from The Teaching Company:
1) "The Old Testament", Amy-Jill Levine, Ph.D., E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter professor, Vanderbilt University Divinity School/Graduate department of Religion
2) "The New Testament", Bart D. Ehrman, Ph.D., University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill)

Four books by comedians/humorists/satirists (I like to alternate the heavy with the light):
1) I Am the New Black by Tracy Morgan with Antony Bozza
2) Me of Little Faith by Lewis Black
3) American on Purpose by Craig Ferguson
4) A Tramp Abroad by Mark Twain

One previously banned book, which I bought to commemorate “Banned Books Week”:
1) Lady Chatterley’s Lover by D.H. Lawrence

Three Philosophical Works:
1) The Essays by Francis Bacon
2) The Portable Nietzsche (a re-read). A collection of works by Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche.
3) The Ethics HYPERLINKED by Baruch Spinoza (another re-read). I did the hyperlinks myself -- over a thousand of them -- and uploaded the book to MobileRead today. If you like Spinoza, the link is https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...372#post636372

Usually I try to keep a couple of non-fiction science books in rotation, but I'm trying to cut my currently reading list to under 10.
