Just started "Three Cups of Tea" by Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Relin.
So what are you reading now? (Part 3)

Currently, I'm reading Enterprise: Kobayashi Maru and quite enjoying it(though I've yet to actually see any of Star Trek: Enterprise, due to not having UPN in my area when it orginally aired). Next will probably be Titan: The Red King and then who knows(I'm rather behind as far as TrekLit goes. Though, actually I have such a backlog of books to read I'm beginning to feel like I'll never get caught up)
I'm still finishing up Enterprise: Kobayashi Maru, however instead of reading Titan: The Red King, I'm going to read Star Wars: Fate of the Jedi: Abyss next, so I don't have to worry about not having it finished by the time Backlash comes out. I changed my mind due to finding out that, instead of coming out on April 13, Backlash's release date has been switched back to March 9.
Currently making my way through Jim Butcher's Dresden Files. I'm up to Book 6, Blood Rites, and am really enjoying this series. Elements of classic pulp noir, Harry Potter, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and lots of action.

I finished Diplomatic Implausibility last night and immediately started A Stitch in Time.
I finished Battle Lines, and thought it was very, very good. An especially great achievement considering Voyager is probably my least favourite Trek, that my two favourite Voyager characters (Seven and the Doctor) were barely in it at all, and Chakotay (the most boring Trek character of all-time, just ahead of Malcolm and Beverlump) was featured so much. In fact I’d say this was probably Chakotay’s finest moment (of the stuff I’ve read or seen, at least). And no meaningless babytalk technobabble ending! Why couldn’t the TV show be this good?
I was surprised at how violent it was – I think it’s got the highest body count this side of Destiny, and although the baddies seem to be evil simply for the sake of being evil
Oh, and the whole novel is pretty much a 250 page space battle. A good space battle.
Up next: Losing the Peace.
“Captain, the Borg are finally defeated, but the Federation is in ruin and there are refugees everywhere – what are your orders?”
“We beam down and pose moodily in front of the starving refugees and the wreckage, Mr Worf.”
And thus the cover was born.

FINIS-The Book Of Endings
Remember those "Choose Your Own Adventure" books? Those unfortunate endings that hose you and you have to start again?
This is a book full of them. Pick an ending and enjoy the shafting.

Yeah, it's one of my favorite books I've ever read.
My Star Wars novels have to be put on hold because time is very short. I'm now reading books Star Wars, Star Trek, etc...that are one-shot entries...or short series.
Anywho, the books that I'm looking to read as time frees up:
*Happy Times by Wendy Lee
*Bug, the play by Tracey Letts
*Fan-Tan by Donald Cammell and Marlon Brando

Since it arrived before I could really start with The Sorrows of Empire, I decided to read Inception first.
And if anyones interested my reviews of Death Troopers and Beneath the Raptor's Wing are online.
I've started Perdido Street Station by China Miéville. I've wanted to read that for a while, now. I'm only at chapter 5 so I can't say much, yet.
