Ive been reading a wonderful book... The man who walked through time. By Colin Fletcher... its about the first man to ever walk the length of the Grand Canyon. Im going through a non-fiction phase with emphasis on naturalists...Bernd Heinrich is another favorite... A Year in the Maine Woods was an INCREDIBLE read..he's the Thoreau of our time..but with more of a scientific mind...

Enders Game by Orson Scott Card
I'm always reading more than one book at a time, but this has my primary focus right now. I am bonded to sf and fantasy, particularly heroic paradoxes and anything that draws upon, regenerates or creates new myths that survive in dystopia. I like to see the underdog win against a dehumanizing force in the present and in the future.
This is a trailer someone made of what a filmed version of the book could look like.

Just finished Cruel Sacrafice by Aphrodite Jones..........she is one of the best crime writers ever each time I get one of her books I cant put it down her best ever by far is All S/he Wanted it is the true story of the murder of Brendan Tena from the movie Boys Dont Cry....the movie is great but so far from the book. The book is better hands down.

I am a true crime addict and also love Aphrodite Jones' books! I've read both books you mentioned below. Cruel Sacrifice was so intense! The characters from it were on a two part Dr. Phil interview this year. Amanda was still gay and looked butch. Hey, check out this one by Aphrodite. It's so good!

Just finished Kevin Hearne's Iron Druid series. They were good.
Also finished The Evil Within by Heather Graham. Now am starting Bleak History by John Shirley and Not Flesh Nor Feathers by Cherie Priest. May also read Slaughterhouse Five again to support banned book week.

I'm reading The Eighty-Dollar Champion by Elizabeth Letts. Would recommend it for any animal lover especially horse lovers.
Just got rereading Eleanor Of Aquitaine by Allison Weir. My favorite historical author

I am currently listening to a CD set called "The Spirit of Healing" by Lewis Mehl-Madrona. He is a psychiatrist who has also studied Native American healing practices for close to 40 years. I quite like it. It took me a bit to get past his voice, I am glad I did because he has some very interesting things to say. Listening to how he expresses his ideas has led me to alter the lectures I do for the Religious Studies program at the University here.
I just bought "78 Degrees of Wisdom" by Rachel Pollack, a book on tarot. I am thinking about creating and teaching a class on Numerology, Symbolism and the Tarot. For further research I am also reading "The Haindl Tarot, the Major Arcana" again by Rachel Pollack and "The Complete Book of Numerology" by David Phillips. I am looking for more esoteric teachings for numerology. It has a deep and intriguing history. I spent much of August steeped in Pythagorean Theorem which inspired my idea to create a workshop. Ramble off
