The Passage by Justin Cronin has become pretty interesting. I am around 60% done, which is about 500 or so pages. Just focusing on that for now.

Was also reading Your Money Or Your Life: 9 Steps to Transforming Your Relationship with Money and Achieving Financial Independence by Vicki Robin, but it's on pause for till I finish The Passage.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

Finished The Stars, Like Dust by Isaac Asimov yesterday. The book is from 1951 and it feels like it - which I love.

I haven't read that one. According to wikipedia, Asimov called it his worst novel, what do you think?

It was fine! I don't think it has any truly unique ideas, and doesn't really make me think philosophically. It's a passable Atomic Age adventure.
