Trying Painless by Derek Ciccone, an Amazon freebie. Slow to get into and the plot jumps about a bit, but starting to get interesting...

Stopped reading Ringworld after 35 pages. It wasn't doing a thing for me. Larry Niven accurately described future products. Most uncanny. Subcutaneous birth control implants?!

Now reading Emissaries From the Dead by Adam-Troy Castro as recommended here on MR.

Not doing well in my start-finish ratio.

Earlier today I started At Home by Bill Bryson (Overdrive download) - interesting so far.

Me too. Was going to read it but couldn't resist [I]Hidden Realities[/I] by Brian Green. But plan to start it after it after I finish The Sentry which, so far, is a very god read

i'm currently reading Palm Sunday by Kurt Vonnegut. I also plan to finish Mother Night this weekend, as those are the books i borrowed from the university library for my leisure reading

unfortunately, i had to set the book aside so i could do my homework
