    I have my Bible, Compendium 1&2 of The Walking Dead, and another book about grief. I recommend all of them.

    I am currently rereading The Light Fantastic, by Terry Pratchett. It is the second book in his Discworld series. I definitely recommend it. Fantasy is not really my genre, but I love these books.

    Three are stacked there atm.

    Bible, of course.
    Gadgets, Games and Gizmos for Learning, Kapp
    Multipliers - How the best leaders make everyone smarter, Wiseman

    That Multipliers has been my management style since I read it back in 2010. Really a great read for leaders and non-leaders alike for how to foster and motivate people to be everything they are.

    adding books to my reading list

    Wow, great range of books already.

    I forgot to share. Someone just recommended Cabinet of Curiosities by Preston and Child. Can't say yes or no yet as I just started it.

    That is the third book in a series! The first book in that series is Relic.

    Bears on Wheels - a Seuss/Berenstein book. Very riveting. Life changing. A must read.

    "One bear... one wheel." How profound.

    Ah, yes, I am aware. I am reading it for the character in the third book. There is potential for me to be completely confused, but the person who suggested it thinks not.

    Hard to go wrong with Seuss. Have to admit, I have given more copies of "Oh, The Places You'll Go" as gifts than any other book.

    I'm reading Into the Wild. Every time I go hiking I suddenly think I'm a pioneering outdoorswoman and should pack up and move to the tundra.

    @Chaelaz This is so fitting for you that I'm actually shaking my head.

    A stack of untouched: 'I want to and I ought to' reads

    Most often dipped into and worth it anywhere is: 'The Good Book' by A. C. Grayling

    I enjoy lots of genres, including non-fiction. Adding to my list. :)
