I don't read Danielle Steele, but I do read popular novels a la John Grisham and the like. I just finished To Kill a Mockingbird last night. Emma is the paperback I carry in my purse so I'm never stranded without reading material, so that'll be slow going. Next book in the hopper for home reading is Ruled Britannia by Harry Turtledove. Don recommended it to me.

I read a third of it. It's boring as poo.

I read mostly books about history, culture, religion, philosophy, & the like, mostly of Ancient Egypt, classical Greece & Rome, but most importantly, my greatest interest, the Byzantine Empire.
Currently I'm reading "The Last Centuries of Byzantium 1261-1453" by Donald Nicol
I'll read fiction once in a while but that other stuff is what I almost always read.

Soon I'll be reading a book on Psycho-Cybernetics, by Maxwell Maltz.

I own that one. Good read. Can't say I've stumbled across anyone else who's read it before though!
