books Books are my biggest vice. I love to read, I never go anywhere without
a book. I recently limited myself to
two books per trip out of town, to reduce my load, and I finished both books
by the third day of a week-long trip.
When I travel, I usually am on my own for dinner, so I bring a book to
the restaurant. I bring one with me to
work in case I take lunch at an odd hour and there isn't anyone to go with
me. I read an hour or so before going
to sleep every night. Growing up, we lived in Belgium from 1969 to 1974,
age 5 to 10 for me. The television
stations (both of them!) were government owned, and there was no television
until 6 pm. I read instead of watching
television. I have thousands of books in my library at home,
some day I'll catalog them and put them on this site. I read on a lot of different subjects, both
fiction and nonfiction. I probably
read more fiction on my own, and the book club tends to lean towards
nonfiction. what i'm reading now
houston book club There are six of us in the
Houston Book
Club. It was formed in 1989, although none of the founding members are still involved, our most senior member joined in 1991. I joined in 2001.
We select a topic (like Native American fiction), and then each month, one member selects a book that we all read. The selector hosts a dinner and
we discuss the book. See the site for a list of all the books we've read. what i'm reading now for
the book club
my amazon wish list For a
list of books that looked interesting, take a look at my Amazon.com
Wish List. This may not be representative of what I'm reading, since I
usually bookmark a bunch of books and then buy only a few of them. favorite science fiction
books Here's an Amazon list with my picks for Best Contemporary Science Fiction. last twenty books (or so) posted by Drew at 7/22/2008 10:00:00 PM | 0 comments
