I'm currently reading an excellent "new" approach to slimming and staying slim. I put "new" in quotes because I guess nothing's really new in the diet world. However, Tres Hatch's approach is fresh and new to me. And she does a wonderful job in her book, Miracle Pill: 10 Truths to Healthy, Thin, & Sexy. She also has an amazing story to tell.

I just finished Towers of Midnight (Wheel of Time newest release)! I have the first few WoT books on my E65 and debating whether to start from scratch again :P

I'm continuing in my noir mode - reading James M. Cain's "Double Indemnity" - quite different from the movie in many aspects. As I read I can hear Fred MacMurray's deadpan voice doing the voice-overs.

I'm waiting impatiently for John Levitt's Play Dead to be released on the 25th. It's the last book in his Dog Days series of Urban Fantasy novels.

I'm *really* impatiently waiting for that one. I had high hopes I'd get an ARC, but I didn't. *Quite* bummed about it, but will attack as soon as it's out!

Do you mean "last" or "latest"?? I hope it's latest...

Waiting for this one, too! So far I've only read the first one.

just finished The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown.

I just finished reading The Five Gospels: What Did Jesus Really Say? The Search for the Authentic Words of Jesus by Robert W. Funk, Roy W. Hoover, and The Jesus Seminar, which I would have completed over a year ago had it been an e-book instead of an over-sized 576 page paperback. Such formats may smell better, but they're heavy, tiresome to hold for long reading sessions, and can't compete with the convenience of an ereader. And while the color-coded text makes it not quite a good fit for B&W readers, this is one that would do well on color readers such as the NookColor or the iPad.

I've just finished LOTR The Fellowship of the Ring, and now I'm reading The Two Towers.

This will be my 3rd time reading the trilogy and it's absolutely just as fantastic as it was the first time

So many books I'd like to re-read, but I also want to read new books too!

To quote Bilbo, "Time! Time!"

(Riddles in the Dark, 'he wanted to shout out: “Give me more time! Give me time!” But all that came out with a sudden squeal was: )

Sadly, he announced "last" on his blog a while back. He's working on a YA at the moment. He has said he is considering another Lou/Mason book. Hopefully if he decides to write one the publisher will be behind him!!!

I think we (perhaps not you and I) have had this discussion before in the "What's the last ebook you bought" thread. "Last" does not also have to mean "final" or "ultimate".

Oh, well if he said that then it does sound like "last" == "final"
