To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. I can't believe I went through elementary school without reading this.

That was one of my favorite classics! It is a very compelling story.

The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, by Robert Heinlein.

I love that book. One of my top three of his.

Just finished reading Empire from the Ashes, the omnibus from David Weber for his Mutineer's Moon series. Lovely premise. I wonder how I'd react if thrown in that situation. Not that it's very likely, but fun to daydream about. Also wading through the Incarnations of Immortality again. Been a while since I've read them, and this series by Piers Anthony I like a lot better than his other works.

Scottish Sf, them tartan clad sheep herders are good at it!

I haven't gotten any proper books at the library since I left San Diego. It's a relief to finally have some good books again.

I picked out Mean Genes, Juggernaut and Consciousness Explained.
