What I’ve been reading

On the way to Virginia, finishing up while there, NewMexiKen read Richard Rodriguez’s Brown: The Last Discovery of America. While interesting, it was a little too abstract for me. I kept looking for more than his opinions. And the anecdotes were largely the same as those he told in the very good talk I recently heard Rodriguez give.

While in Virginia I began Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Book 4 in the series of seven. I’m about two-thirds through.

Later today I expect to begin Tim Weiner’s Legacy of Ashes: The History of the CIA.
