View original postSo what are you reading? What are you planning to read? What will you eventually postpone like all those other New Year's Resolutions that you make each year?

After that, tons of books to choose from, including my most recent acquisitions, Eleanor Catton's "The Luminaries", this year's Man Booker Prize winner, and Peter Wilson's history of the Thirty Years War which looks fascinating.

Also thinking about reviewing The Guns of August in...well, August, for obvious reasons.
