I bought Steve Jobs for nook. But need to finish a Heinlen book first.

Reading a Jobs book on a Nook, is like drinking Allagash in a bud glass, right?

In case others need an incentive...

Walter Isaacson's 656-page profile of Steve Jobs "is quite possibly the truest biography I've ever read." http://ow.ly/1zih61

Well, nook for iPad. I sold the nook, but have 100 eBooks for nook so i'm sticking with that format for now.

Now reading

Will most likely read Steve Jobs next. And in honor of Job's rebellious spirit, I will go against the norm and buy a physical version of the book.

Currently avoiding.

But my essay is more than a week overdue. And more than five years I've been avoiding dear Edmund by reading only secondary literature. But alas, he has finally caught me in Reykjavik. The fun part tho will be doing a phenomenological analysis of various modes of music listening. Just five pages away...

I've never done a serious test. Most of the time I score between 100-115, depending on how lazy I feel at that moment. But don't feel bad about your IQ, man- many people think that if you don't score high then you're condemned for life. IQ can and will change throughout your life, you weren't born with that number, therefore if you want it higher then just work on it. And don't forget that there's also the EQ- emotional intelligence was recently all the rage among the staff departments.

I am pretty sure he is referring to the book as this is the What are you Reading thread.

Indeed! Otherwise it would have been IQ 68...

D'oh. Less reading, more socializing for me, it seems.

For those reading the Jobs bio, heads up there are several photos after the lengthy end index. I almost missed them.

Dry and boring is never any fun but at least I am compensated for my time! For those who like to poke fun, note the last word in the title is not spelled scum.

When did Frank Miller get so bitter?

That was a good read thanks for the link

Michael crichtons Micro. He passed away a few years ago and I felt as though I lost a dear friend. Read all his stuff as a teenager and kept up with everything he released along the years. I dearly miss his way of writing. Hopefully they can find way to complete a few other manuscripts e left behind incomplete.

I'm having a *hard* time getting through a second reading of Robert Fitzgerald's Odyessy. Despite it seeming to have a higher reputation in academia, There are many instances where I wish it was Allen Mandlebaum's version I was reading.

Wait... When did MC die? How did I miss that? He was always my favorite author growing up.

I'm listening to the new Stephen King novel. Got Orson Scott Card's "Speaker For The Dead" from Audible. I figure I'll go back through the Ender series and catch the ones I missed earlier. Digging the King book after about 5 hours in.

I remember that happened right about the time the nook came out, and Pirate Latitudes was released.

Book 1 of the Culture Series.

The Gods of Mars

never a bad choice, that. I recently read John C Wright's Golden Age series. amazing hard science fiction. i read up until the last 50 pages (it's a rather long trilogy) on my iPad in 4 days, but couldn't bring myself to finish it until last night, in the ER (on my iPhone).

Yup, I enjoyed it. I just finished the 2nd Culture Book: Player of Games and I enjoyed that one even more.

The Golden Age looks interesting, added to my list, thanks!

Recently started Book 1 of the Culture Series myself, it's a good read so far

Finally read the Hunger Games. Certainly an easy book to get immersed in. Guess it's time to see the movie.
