That's on my list next. Haven't been reading a ton lately because my sleep schedule is terrible.

Reading Company by Max Barry now. I'd read all of his books other than this one. So far so good. Machine Man is still my favourite of his, though.

About halfway through 1Q84 right now and I'm really liking it. This is the first Murakami I've read and I'll definitely be checking out more in the future.

Next on my list is the most recent George R.R. Martin book (I forget what it's called). This series is the first fantasy I've gotten into in a long time, I wouldn't call it great but it's certainly entertaining.

I was going to read Ham on Rye but the Kindle apparently doesn't like .pdfs much. Or at least not the way that one was formatted.
So I found Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas at a bookstore for supercheap and I'm really liking it.

Starting A Song of Ice and Fire series. Never read fantasy books before but I'm loving the tv show. I'm going to hold off on the show until I finish the second book to catch up to the show.

Still on the first chapter of Plato's 'The Republic'. Great read though.
