The Ominovore's Dilema - Micheal Pollan

5/5 - Goes way into the life of corn - the end gets a bit strange, not as accessible as In Defense of Food - would not recommend unless you're already converted to eating healthy.

Callahan Chronicals - Spider Robinson

Short story collection - read the first two. Would be good reads just one at a time, didn't find it compelling as a book.

A War of Gifts - Orson Scott Card

3.5/5 - Only for the truly hard core Ender-verse person. Follows another kid - Ender gets involved - nothing remarkable. Oh yeah, I lost my $2 bill when I sent this book back to the library with it in there.

Hurricane Punch - Tim Dorsey

5/5 - Belated Entry - pretty dang good. More fun with Serge. Another killer on the loose copying Serge. Nothing groundbreaking, but fun.

DNF - Good Omens - Terry Pratchet

2/5 - End of days story, pretty funny at times, but I just couldn't stick to it. Got about 150 pages in, might try to pick up at a later time. Couldn't get into the character, got bored and wouldn't read more than 10 pages at a time. Seems like if you were into that kind of thing it'd be good (like fish).
