I'm winding my way through Asimov in my sf library. Lots of old paperbacks. Asimov is a good read.

They need to make another movie in the I Robot series.


What are you reading?

Cell by Stephen King. Last book of his that I read was The Dome which has been turned into a TV mini series. I found the ending of that book disappointing and ridiculous. We'll see how 'Cell' turns out.

I always enjoyed Asimov.

Inferno by Dan Brown. At least this one is more accurate than the last when he had the Washington Metro system totally wrong.(Also four other books but 3 of those are on Computer and Network Security and the last is Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance by Robert Pirsig for the 4th time)

I did not like the ending of The Dome either. I just reread Wind Through The Keyhole, another Roland the gunslinger story. I just finished The Last of the Mohicans for about the 20th time...lol.

Just finished re-reading The Passage by Justin Cronin. Haven't enjoyed Stephen King's books since The Stand. My beach read is Kill Alex Cross and the next book on my at home agenda is The Corrections by Jonathan Franzen.

^^ I got really tired of the Alex Cross books, and have crossed him off my list (pun intended). I'm reading Suspect by Robert Crais and so far so good. It's about a German Shepherd military dog and having lost our G.S. in January it feels good to read about another.

Yep, I'm pretty weary of them too but just wanted something simple and easy to read when I'm at the beach. I save the heavier stuff for at home reading. My next beach read will be Defending Jacob.

Data Governance - How to Design, Deploy, and Sustain an Effective Data Governance Program by John Ladley.

It's every bit as engrossing as it sounds.
