Lost in the Stacks

I read widely and compulsively and my fancies are ever changing. My love of reading, however, is no mere fancy. 

Currently reading

The Stress of Her Regard
Tim Powers
Progress: 480/960 minutes
The Age of Wonder: How the Romantic Generation Discovered the Beauty and Terror of Science - Richard Holmes Really one of the best books that I read all year. Inspiring. Holmes, in his conclusion, hits the nail on its head - science is best taught and scientific understanding would be brought to the general public in a much more facile manner, through instruction in its history.

Someone mentioned this in a previous review, but whoever MADE this book deserves an A+. They rarely make even pricey hardcovers this well anymore and this book, aside from being a transcendant reading experience was a pleasure to read from.
