Reads

Once again, I find myself in the middle of a million books.

Moving Millions: How Coyote Capitalism Fuels Global Immigration

Immigration is such a complicated issue and it seems to be such a touchy subject for most people. I feel an urgent need to learn as much as I can about it.


Everything Ravaged, Everything Burned

I finished this just a little bit ago. The amount of tension that Wells Tower manages to put into these short stories is incredible.


Musicophilia: Tales of Music and the Brain

I'm blown away by a lot of these crazy stories of amusia, musical hallucinations and musical seizures.


The Healing of Amerca: A Global Quest for Better, Cheaper, and Fairer Health Care

I started this one forever ago but just never got around to finishing it. I really should.


Collected Fictions

Another one I started a long time ago that I need to finish. Borges was nuts. I think he had Kool-Aid in his brain.


The Rice Room: Growing Up Chinese-American - From Number Two Son To Rock N' Roll

Concerning memoirs, I always find myself thinking "Really, you think your life is interesting enough to write a book about?" After finishing a memoir I usually end up having to eat those words.


Lord of Chaos

I'm wrapping up the final chapters of this one. I hate Egwene, Elayne and Faile.
