    The Ultimates is a great series of comic books (just got back to reading comics after a ten year break... comics grew up! :eek: )

    Currently reading Thud by Pratchett (two thumbs up, deffo among his usual standard, still only halfway through it tho')

    I am reading "Chess Bitch, Women in the ultimate Intellectual Sport." by author Jennifer Shahade. I give it 4 stars out of five, and five stars if you are a serious chess enthusiast wanting to learn about womens competitive chess in the world. The author is a woman chess grandmaster writing about women chess grandmasters. It is an interesting read.

    The Power of NOW by Ekharte Tolle, it is an amazing self-help book, it is recommended by Oprah and more than million copies of it were sold in the last 6 years. And it was translated to 30 languages!

    It is the real deal! I bought it from Virgin Megastore but you can buy it from amazon too.

    Don't steal this book (quote). I felt like quoting him for my novel since it's an ebook and easier than shoplifting at the bookstore, but I've already gotten in enough trouble with my self-promotion.

    I am reading Nuclear War Survival Skills by Cresson H. Kearny and Vultures in Eagles Clothing by Lynne Meredith. They were a bit hard to find but are quite interesting tho a bit science fiction like.

    My Life: The Presidential Years by Bill Clinton. It's interesting and gives me a lot more insight into the happenings during his administration. But it is a book by a politician..
