Nonsense! This is the "what are you reading?" thread. Surely one should post what they are reading, sci-fi or not, in this thread. The other thread would be a discussion of sci-fi literature.
I'm currently re-reading a Carl Hiassen book from 25 years ago, "Tourist Season", which Wiki reveals was his first novel. I've also read "Strip Tease", which spawned the movie of the same name. Man, that guy knows how to write a hilarious page-turner! I need to pick up a couple more of his works.

Yep. Civil matter. I'm the defendant but the dollar amount is small enough that a lawyer would cost more than it would pay what they want. Since I'm in the right though I have no intention of coughing up a dime unless a judge tells me to.
If nothing else it'll be an educational experience.
Oh man, this is bad. I've run out of new books and the library won't be open until Tuesday afternoon.
Plan ahead, people!
I guess I'll do the big dig through my own and find something worth re-reading.

An American Demon, by Jack Grisham singer for T.S.O.L. (80s punk/hardcore band, still touring!). It's billed as a memoir. That dude was NUTS. He writes the book in a narrative third person style, stating that he isn't human but really a demon. He writes it from the demon's point of view. It's basically a tell-all of what a jerk he was for a long time. Since I was married to someone who was just as manipulative and evil I could really relate. It's a great read for anyone who is a fan of T.S.O.L.
