Reading ftw! I just Android's Dream, by John Scalzi. He wrote the Old Man's War series which I liked, so I bought this. It's pretty good.

What I've read recently: (I read mainly non-fiction)
Born in the USA: How a Broken Maternity System Must Be Fixed to Put Women and Children First- Marsden Wagner, MD
10/10 Anyone who thinks they'll ever want children in America should read this!
Sex in the Bible- J. Harold Ellens
8/10 Really interesting stuff. Turns out sex is not forbidden in the Bible after all! This was a fun read for me, since I dont' take it very seriously since I'm not Christian.
9/10 I guess...just informative stuff that I am obligated to know.
5/10 because the dialogue and premise kind of suck in a really tacky/cliche way. But I enjoyed it because it was such an easy read and the book is filled to the brim with lovely illustrations like the cover. And it has given me a taste of Hindu religious icons and their sexuality.
Liberty for Women: Freedom and Feminism in the 21st Century by Wendy McElroy.
Haven't read it yet.

My greatest acquisition of the last 12 months:
Susperia, you may find this interesting:
Quite a bit discusses feminism and its destruction in the current day in relation to the rise of raunch culture and misogyny.
Also of interest, which I have, and is related in some ways:

I've hardly had time to read anything other than what's required for school. I just read about the publishing of a new Tolkien novel, however, so I'm excited to read that after this semester is over. Lately I've read:
Nightwood by Djuna Barnes, a highly eccentric tale in the early 20th century modernist vein (clearly, since this is for a 20th Century Fiction class...) about a Jew that wishes he wasn't a Jew and how everybody is in some form an outcast.
Maurice by E. M. Forster, a rather evocative novel about the complexities of living with and discovering homosexuality in a repressed time. This work was published long after it was written due to the fact that it would have been rejected at the time.
To The Lighthouse by Virginia Woolf, I honestly wasn't able to absorb with one because I put it off too long before I had to read it, so I read it in a day's time and must have missed the underlying current of the novel. I'm not a fan of Woolf anyway.
Selections from The Complete Works of Plato, namely The Republic, Laches, Meno, and a few others. I don't think I have to introduce this one...
Selections from A New Aristotle Reader, namely the Nicomachean Ethics and the Physics. Again, this should be sufficiently obvious...
Governance and Politics of China by Tony Saich, a very interesting look into the recent history of a country that is becoming increasingly important, from the ancient past the Mao Zedong's CCP rule through Hu Jintao.
Korea's Place in the Sun by Bruce Cumings, reads in a bit of a biased manner, nearly vitriolic against the US, but another extremely informative novel about a very important part of the world in recent times.
I think that's all that's worth mentioning from the last month's worth of reading...

perfect example of a trollpost that will inevitably elicit dozens of indignant responses from dumbasses that feel they need to prove their intelligence (HEY! I READ!!!) when theyd be better off just ignoring that shit
