So what are you reading?

Just generally, what you are currently reading. It can be now, soon, later, or, if you are reading a book for a class or something, add that as well. You can also make book recommendations based on the books you see listed for each person. On that note, feel free to note what genre of literature you like.

Anything goes: comics, novels...

I want to read allllll of these.

I THINK I've read the Aquatic Ape Hypothesis. If it wasn't that book, it was one on that subject, but fictionalized. :|3 I want to read it again.
