Inlander:
Continuing with a theme of dogs I'm just about done reading Started Early, Took My Dog by Kate Atkinson. It's absolutely fantastic, a real exemplar of the "Crime fiction as a means to examine society in general" style of literature (and infinitely better in that regard than, say, anything with the name Stieg Larsson on it), and beautifully written with characters so strongly and clearly defined that even when they exhibit extreme behaviour it's absolutely believable.

Got the urge to read it again after I found my copies of the Atlas and The People of Pern and perused them again.

That sounds fun. I have maybe half the series in paperback. I might buy the rest as e-books, as I've run out of space, between Pern novels, Xanth novels, and various old sci-fi and fantasy paperbacks.

There's something called The Book Thing in Baltimore where you can go get free books, and they always have an awesome selection in those genres.

Fiction - Dune: Messiah. It's been 4 years since I read Dune, I really should have reread it before this. It's good, but damn it's hard to remember crap.

Non-Fiction - Plato's Republic. I always try to have a nonfiction on the go at the same time, it's usually philosophy or something. I've been "reading" Republic for nearly a month now but damn.
