I will add a few of the ones I have found roaming my desk, not on the list . I need to figure out what is up next....my deadline on #15 and #16 is looming....but I still have 2 more months....nothing like a bit of procrastination.....I need something that will make me think and is somewhat inspirational....
I hear #18 is good for that....believe it or not....the old rocker and hunter....gets angry that no one does family meals anymore....
Ok so I am narrowing it down, #18, #17, #32 and #34 is almost taunting me.....I went to a "Deaf Culture" workshop that mentioned the culture formed on Martha's Vineyard so it makes that one very tempting.
SOO....Just curious A question for those reading this......is my list really strange? Have you read anything on it? Have you at least HEARD of some one these books?

what am I reading besides this post? Other bloggers posts.... and that's about it. lol
I don't read books. I have several that I have started - mostly inspirational type books that I read a little set aside and then months or years later pick it up again and read a little more.
I have heard of a few of the books on your list but I haven't read them. I find that if I sit down to read I end up falling asleep. Ah, well... such is my life.
Ever since I've known you, you've had an interested in a wide variety of things so it doesn't surprise me that you read a lot of different types of books. I think it's great.
