Currently, a book on Eva Peron, The Diaries of Sylvia Plath, A book on Ancient Egyptian Magic, A book about the way people's view of death has changed, Kushiel's Chosen and my fat hitchiker's book (it has the first 4 books in one).

I like variety.

An interesting archaeological book which looks at the location of the Flood, the Garden of Eden and so on using Biblical, Sumerian, Egyptian, Babylonian and Akkadian myths and epics as well as conventional archaeology.
