The Reading Corner.

[Buster's Uncle]

Destroyer of Worlds by Larry Niven and Edward M. Lerner.

-I got 152 pages into it today and so far, it's not nearly as good as the last in the series.

(had to be done) 

Yep

A Different Flesh by Harry Turtledove.

[Green1]

I managed to find a hard copy of the short story collection Limits by Larry Niven abandoned at the Mississippi River ferry a few months ago. Did not care for Draco Tavern or the two fantasy short stories. But Spirals, the tale of an orbital moon colony and Earth politics going to hell in a handbasket was grade A stuff.

In the Courts of the Crimson Kings by S.M. Stirling.

[Buster's Uncle]

Kaleidoscope Century, by John Barnes.  Mindblowing.

[Zoid]

 Jeez, BUncle, have you taken speed reading classes or do you read 10 books simultaneously?

I was reading on college level when I was 11, I have no life, I've run out of things I want to look at on the innerwebs ATM, and I had a bout of insomnia.

Manseed by Jack Williamson.

[Zoid]

Well, those are all good reasons to get some reading done... 

[Buster's Uncle]

Roma Eterna by Robert Silverberg.

[Buster's Uncle]

Counting Up, Counting Down by Harry Turtledove.

[Unorthodox]

Finally getting my hands on Brimstone by Preston/Child.  Next Pendergast novel I've been trying to find since I started this thread.

Meanwhile I was taken out of english class for speech therapy lessons through all of elementary and struggled with reading through school.  Terribly slow at it.  Still don't say certain sounds right, and still wince expecting the yard stick when I particularly bungle one.  Same teacher tried to make me right handed...

[Buster's Uncle]

Whatever that fall when I was six did to my brain didn't seem to affect reading; I recall what I've read a lot better than what I'm told vocally, too.

I might've gotten more out of speech therapy if they'd bothered to tell me why I was there.

Washington's Dirigible by John Barnes.
