    I haven't read a book since 2003.

    I think that when the weather starts sucking again, I'm going to decide between William Gibson's Neuromancer and The Difference Engine. I'll accept any thoughts on either,

    I'm currently reading Runestone by Don Coldsmith and The Mists of Avalon by Marion Zimmer Bradley.

    I just finished The Shack by William P. Young. This is a life-changing book. It is a fictional account of a man's encounter with God in the shack where his young daughter was murdered. It made me see the concept of God in a incredibly new way. I highly recommend this book for anyone who's ever struggled with the idea of God as a vengeful old man up there somewhere just waiting to send us to Hell. TheShackBook.com

    I gave Jim that book and Super System II for our anniversary this year.

    I just finished "Wolverine: Election Day" by Peter David; not exactly highbrow reading, but it was a really fun read. I'm reading "Night Train to Rigel" by Timothy Zahn now.

    I've never seen God like this, but this seems like a good book ... on my wish list for 2009

    I read one or two books a week and have done so my whole life. My idea of Heaven is an endless library and all the time in the world to make my way through it.

    I read my entire elementary school library from start to finish. That's how I knew it was time to go on to junior high.

    Books are a way for me to travel away from all reality, to learn, to engage, to have the company of all kinds of people, to vicariously enjoy things I will never know in my unprinted world... Every time I pick up a book, I sigh.
