What book are you currently reading?

Post by tyrolean_skier »

Skibumtress mentioned that she would be reading a book this weekend. I just finished reading "Bloodstream" by Tess Gerritsen - a pretty interesting medical suspense novel based in Maine. I have now started reading "Bio-Strike" one of the books in the Tom Clancy Power Plays series - it is written by Jerome Preisler.

Actually, reading Jack Welch's Winning...good book and an easy read. Just finished reading biography of Ben Franklin. Before that, had a quick read of one of Dave Barry's books and before that, a biography of John Adams. I think before that I read the third in the series of biographies of Lyndon Johnson called Master of the Senate, although I may have read something else in between and can't recall off the top of my head. As you can tell, I hate historical biographies. :wink:

body language by Charlie Badenhop

Your body language creates and informs you of your emotional and physical reactions to the world. The body language spoken in Seishindo draws on the principles of Aikido, Cranio-sacral therapy, Sei Tai, and Seiki Jutsu. Understanding your body language will heighten your intuition, compassion, and empathy and improve your professional and personal relationships.

Me, too. Almost everyone else in my house has read it, so I figure it's about time. Then I'm going to attempt McCullough's 1776. (With a couple of fun trashy novels in between. :wink: )
