    The Robots of Dawn by Asimov.

    I'm about to start Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln by Doris Kearns Goodwin.

    Yeah, I read that book recently. I just felt really sad that I understood most of the references the dorky main character made.

    I just finished "The Partner" by John Grisham.

    I really geeked out when he mentioned the Velvet Underground during the part about songs titled Here She Comes.

    also, read 25th hour, the book that the movie was based off of. the movie was surprisingly accurate to the book. really good book.

    Finished Crooked Little Vein last night, and I must say I found it endlessly entertaining.
