Wish I'd made a more worthy first post here, but pictures under 1MB do work (around 800k for this one, but failed at 1.2MB before resizing.

So anyway, what's everyone favorite book? Current read?

My favorite books probably have to be sci-fi novels, specifically Michael Crichton stuff like Andromeda Strain and Jurassic Park I read as a kid and so now the nostalgia keeps them safely ensconced in the top positions.

I recently read Ministry for the Future, which I liked. It left me feeling odd about the future. Not exactly hopeful but ready for whatever comes. Right now I'm reading 'Rage Becomes Her' and random Discworld stuff when I need something lighter.
