Well one advantage to having so much downtime at work is the fact that I’ve read more books in the past month than any other time in my life. Or so it seems. I’m averaging a book and a quarter a week and I’ve managed to finish some books that I’ve had for a long time — e.g. Susan Jacoby’s Freethinkers: A History of American Secularism — but never gotten all the way through for various reasons. So I’ve been working on some reviews of said books that I’ll be posting soon.

For some reason I’ve finding a couple of the reviews difficult to write so a couple of them may be somewhat short, but I’ll come up with something.
