I'm currently enjoying Maphead by Ken Jennings.

I saw the guy in an interview, he's hilarious. Is his book funny?

I'm currently reading Guns, Germs and Steel by Jared Diamond.

Yes, his book was very good; I enjoyed it. You may also remember the author from his appearances on Jeopardy he was on for a record 74 appearances. I'm currently reading a book about counterfeiting.

Cool, I'll look into it.

Take a look at his reddit interview, it's really good too: http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/fwpzj/iama_74time_jeopardy_champion_ken_jennings_i_will/

I'm reading "The long tail", by Chris Anderson.
It's quite interesting, but my expectation was better..

The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins.

Born to Run by Christoper McDougall. I can't recommend it highly enough.

"Free: The Future of a Radical Price" by Chris Anderson. It's about how free is used in business models, how it affects the economy, about people who simply give away things for free (and how it affects the economy), and to some extent- how you could use the idea of free in a business model to make money yourself.

I wish I had access to better libraries though, as it stinks when there are books you would love to read but your library doesn't have them.

After burning through several Star Wars books and Lord of the Rings, I started reading Democracy in America by Tocqueville. I haven't read really far into it but I can already tell it's going to be a dense but enjoyable read.

So, how did you like A Storm of Swords? Best in the series, isn't it? :)

I am reading the "Song of Ice & Fire" series, as well as the "Temeraire" series, and the "Boneshaker" steampunk series.

Definitely the best I've read so far, although by the end I was scratching my head wondering if there were going to be anyone left to finish the series!

Jason Goodwin's Lords of the Horizons, his very readable history of the Ottoman Empire.  Just read it after having read his Evil Eye and Janissary Tree novels in the same setting.  Great stuff!
