A cumlative list

It has been way too long since I have updated this so here is a quick partial list of what I have been reading.
Without Reservations - Alice Steinbach
Son of a Witch - Gregory Maguire
Timeline - Michael Crichton
Capolan - Nick Bantock
When We Were Saints - Han Nolan
The Courtesan - Susan Carroll
Mountains Beyond Mountains - Tracy Kidder
At the Mercy of the River - Peter Stark
Mirror Mirror - Gregory Maguire
Shantaram - Gregory David Roberts
Memoirs of a Geisha - Arthur Golden
The Constant Princess - Philippa Gregory
and I am currently reading
River Town - Peter Hessler
And while you might find it hard to believe I would highly recommend almost all of these books. The Courtesan and the two Maguire books were okay, but the rest of the books have become some of my favorites. If you can only read one of the above books read Mountains Beyond Mountains (thanks Krister for introducing me to this). I am going to try to keep this more updated, but of course that can take away from good reading time. As Daniel J. Boorstein said: "A wonderful thing about a book, in contrast to a computer screen, is that you can take it to bed with you."
