The Prince of the Marshes

by Rory Stewart

Finished Today.
I guess even the people who made some right decisions couldn't get things to work out in Iraq. Not in 1-2 years, anyway.

The Little Prince

by Antoine de Saint Exupéry

Not sure what to say about this one yet.

Valencia

by Michelle Tea

Really interesting to see inside this world, but man, so many drugs. Too many - I wish I could find out what happens to the characters 25 years later, like at the end of A Scanner Darkly.

The Amber Spyglass

by Philip Pullman

Some interesting ideas and interesting images, but man, obvious religious evangelism is cheesy and lame, even when it's for my religion.

The Long Walk Home - Paul Franklin's Journey from Afghanistan >>> A Soldier's Story

by Liane Faulder

Finished today.
So, in case the fact that there are three titles didn't tip you off, this isn't very professionally written. But, it's about a good guy, and his story is interesting, if unfinished.
Oh, and the guy the book is about handed me my copy right after he signed it for me. I didn't even intend to buy the book (I had never heard of it) until I saw him there.

Dream Angus

by Alexander McCall Smith

Finished today.
It was weird to read Alexander McCall Smith writing something that wasn't light-hearted comedy, but it was good.

The Subtle Knife

by Philip Pullman

Finished today.
These books aren't really books. They're each like 1/3 of a book. They're still good, though.
