this is how it feels to read again

i've definitely knocked out my share of books over the last week. three, to be exact. harry potter six and seven (completing my 9th straight runthrough of the series, 1st since deathly hallows came out) as well as invincible by troy denning. my summer list is painstakingly long, but i feel my ambition is equal to the task:
  1. lies my teacher told me
  2. the way of the shepherd
  3. a few star wars novels here and there
  4. everyman's talmud
  5. the omnivore's dilemma
  6. um summer book
  7. slc summer book
  8. and mostly likely about three or four others that i haven't decided on yet
i'm pretty pumped. not having cable has been great for my booklife. it's good to be reading again.

That is funny that we've both made book lists. I guess I should send my info back to Guy so I can get my UM summer book. Any idea what it is? I pray to God its nothing like the Ortberg book and more like Nouwen, but that's just me.

One of my future professors, Michael Pollan, is the author of The Omnivore's Dilemma.

Just thought I'd "pull a Beth," and brag about my professors, pretending they're movie stars or something.

Anyway, I'm hoping to read it this summer too.
