I've just finished Walter Isaacson's Steve Jobs, his bio of the legendary Apple CEO and high-tech consumer products visionary. I get the feeling it's a very fair and objective account of Jobs' achievements and character. (He's often not at all likeable.)

Now, I'm diving into Edward St. Aubyn's novel, Mother's Milk. The opening two pages have slightly disappointed me, lol ... but there are 232 pages more for St. Aubyn to seduce me.

Hunter S. Thompson is one of my favorite authors. He forever changed the face of journalism in America - maybe not for the better, but everything he wrote was comedy gold.

Whenever I go to Las Vegas, I re-read Fear and Loathing.

I'm currently on a non-fiction bender and am partway through Hell on Two Wheels, which is an account of the Race Across America - a bike race from one coast to the other. No stopping, no sleeping. Madness.

I just finished The Trial of Henry Kissinger by Christopher Hitchens.
