I love books - lots and lots of books!

and I love hearing about what books other people are reading...

Carl Jung - the psychologist noticed and heavily documented two broad categories of human beings: Extroverts (those who feel revived and fueled by spending time with other people) and Introverts (those who need to be alone with their own thoughts to recharge their batteries.) I am definitely of the latter type and reading is one of my favorite solo, rejuvenating activities.

I've gotten more and more comfortable over the years having a stack of books going - depending on my mood - I have a choice - and that means more reading (rejuvenating) time. Here's my current stack - and I am enjoying every one of them. And now that I look at the photo - I see I left a few books out of the stack. Journeys though Inner Space by Hue Walker (local Albuquerquean FullDome Artist) - thought provoking poetry and paintings and The Beginner's Guide to Quantum Psychology by Stephen Wolinsky which I've just barely started to dabble in.

I've spent most of the hours of the last couple of days - couchant (lying down on the couch) - reading "Seven Types of Ambiguity" by Elliot Perlman. It's been AGES since I've managed to burrow into a book I love like this for hours on end with no guilt, occasional snacks, the swamp cooler purring away - it feels so darn good!

I try to read every night and for 2 or 3 hours during my weekly Friday jaunt to Cafe Giuseppe but sometimes my reading time is cut woefully short by the tiredness of the day. In the evening, I wake up with me glasses on and the light burning and begrudgingly, groggily admit my reading for the night is done. Still - I manage to get through alot of great books every year and I'm always looking to expand my horizons.

I love hearing what books other people are reading...

So if you are reading something you are really enjoying these days, let me know and I'll add it to the potential reading list!
