Three books at the moment:
- "The age of turbulence" by Alan Greenspan. Sort of memoirs combined with political statments propagating for a more libertarian world. Interesting.
- "Rapid development" by Steve McConnel - an old (1996) but still valuable book about software development. Really recommend this for the project managers out there.
- a book about owning a forest.

Just finished "Invisible Monsters" by Chuck Palahnuik. He's probably my favorite author and the fourth book I've read by him. Enjoyed it, but not quite as much as "Survivor" or "Fight Club."

Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, Breaking Dawn. Read them all now.
Wow, I admit, it is not the greatest literature in history, but I am addicted, to the characters as much as the written text. Now i am reading the unpublished Midnight Sun, it is Twilight in Edward's perspective from Stephanie Meyer's website just to get my fix. I've also started to read Twilight again from the start, second reading actually makes a lot more sense, the characters seems a lot more thought out than i realised, their thoughts, actions and sentences have reasons to them where I passed it off as storytelling on the first read through.
I also watched Twilight the film again too, it made a lot more sense after reading the books, made the film 10 times better.
