It's been a while, and I'm curious. Post what you're currently reading, or have recently finished.

The Amphora Project by William Kotzwinkle
Fast Food Nation by Eric Schlosser
Sein Language by Jerry Seinfeld

The last two are things I'm reading while at work. Fast Food Nation is just on my breaks though. Recently finished A Short History of Nearly Everything by Bill Bryson. Guns, Germs, and Steel is still on the backburner and way, way overdue at the library.
