I am currently reading a bunch of different books. Dawkins-The God Delusion is the one I have been at for the longest. Second on the list would be Midnight's Children bu Rushdie. Those are books that I keep coming back to but ever seem to finish. I probably complete a novel of some sort every single week. It just depends on where my mood is. Part of what I like about being a nudist is reading outdoors in the summer and letting the sun warm the entire body.
I'm so pleased to see that there is someone else who understands the appeal of reading multiple books at the same time. I have tried to explain to people and the best I can come up with is; " well you don't stop watching TV because you can't see a series all the way through from end to end, you chop and change, and you are able to pick up the story line and the characters when you return to it..."
I often have 4-5 on the go at once, currently (One of mine is also a Dawkins)
The God delusion, A short history of nearly everything, Jack Maggs, The audacity of hope, the best Australian essays 2009 and Avocado..
Over Xmas I also picked up a few new ones either purchased or gifts that I'm keen to get started on, though I think I should finish at least one of these before I start on another new one. ...
Incidentally I also heard this week that one of Dawkins colleagues Christopher Hitchens has been diagnosed with cancer. Through one of the articles I read mention of one of his books intrigued me, so I have ordered it “letters to a young contrarian” – has anyone read it?
Happy reading fellow multitasker.
