Merry Christmas, Morons! (Or Cthulhu F'tagh'n, to you worshippers of the Elder Gods.)
The sad truth is that I didn't really read much in the past week, and what little reading I did do was mainly on my Oxford History of Music collection by Richard Taruskin.
I do plan to re-read Rick Atkinson's An Army at Dawn and Day of Battle at some point soon. The third volume of his "liberation trilogy" comes out in 2011 (or so I've heard), so I want to make sure that my memories are fresh.
I also plan to re-read some of James M. Cain's thrillers: The Postman Always Rings Twice and Double Indemnity. Cain does hard-boiled right up there with Hammett and Chandler, if you ask me.
What is everyone else reading?
