Ask HN: What are you reading right now?

I also enjoyed Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card

I really loved Blindsight.

I'm a huge Pratchett fan. I especially like the Watch novels, but every one of them has its merits.

I thoroughly enjoyed the Foundation Series about a year ago and since then have been reading many of the books found in Asimov's Foundation Universe

Also check out Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality too.

Man's Search for Meaning - Viktor E. Frankl. This one was very good.

It really is a fantastic book, and its not nearly as confusing as most people think when read twice.

I think Franklin Covey's 7 Habits is much better in this regard

"Accelerando" is his best novel by far, IMO. Check it out if you haven't already.

Just want to second ASHNE by Bryson.

Currently reading A Short History of Nearly Everything by Bill Bryson. So far, it's a really charming history of science (and well, everything else), starting from the Big Bang. Bryson has never let me down before.

what I'm going to read very shortly will be Moby-Dick for the third time; my daughter just read it in her high school English class and it became clear to me that it's time to read it again. Good Lord, that man could turn a phrase.

I challenge anyone here to read the first page and not immediately want to read the whole thing.
