Right now I'm reading Bill Bryson's bio of Shakespeare. Found it at the library, as I did the next book, Duke: The Life and Image of John Wayne, by Ronald Davis.

In school we're reading "Macbeth" which I have to say is way better then "Romeo and Juliet", the only other shakespeare I've read.

I´m reading, "The Last Testament Of Lucky Luciano". I like to read books about the mafia - if they´re good! And this one is!

I'm reading Edward Larson's A Magnificent Catastrophe: The Tumultuous Election of 1800, America's First Presidental Campaign.
Larson explains how the Founding Fathers/authors of the Constitution originally meant for the Electoral College to operate -- and how it's been bastardized by the creation of political parties and partisan politics.
You can thank Jefferson and Hamilton for the latter.

My friend just gave me "The Inferno" by Danta Alighieri. It's supposed to be one of the great works of literature ever written and I can't wait to sit down and read it.

I just finished reading the first Canto (which I'm to assume is a chapter) and it's quite interesting. My friend said he didn't believe in an afterlife until after he read this book.
