Memories, Dreams, Reflections by Carl G. Jung.So far I really like the book, especially the part about his time at school and younger years. I'm also reading some other books, but I have to think about which it were. I believe some book about philosophy and 'eating animals' by Jonathan S. Foer.

Rainer Maria Rilke: Letter's to a Young Poet
+
White Oleander by Janet FinchOften a star was waiting for you to notice it. A wave rolled toward you out of the distant past, or as you walked under an open window, a violin yielded itself to your hearing. All this was mission. But could you accomplish it? (Rilke)

Einstein: His Life and Universe, by Walter Isaacson. Jock recommended it to me! So far, I'm really enjoying it. However, I managed to get the large print version
The bf thinks this is endlessly fun.

As usual, I'm in the middle of several. And taking forever to finish any, since I keep getting distracted by things I can read on the internet.
Loneliness: Human Nature and the Need for Social Connection by John Cacciopo and William Patrick
The Hour I First Believed by Wally Lamb
The End of Overeating: Taking Control of the Insatiable American Appetite by David Kessler (Ha! The book I've got says, "...Insatiable North American Appetite" on the cover, but the word 'North' isn't there on Amazon. Exact same cover otherwise.)

I love Rilke's poems (don't tell the guys over at INTPc
) She also has some outstandingly on point quotes.
"A person isn't who they are during the last conversation you had with them - they're who they've been throughout your whole relationship."
"For one human being to love another; that is perhaps the most difficult of all our tasks, the ultimate, the last test and proof, the work for which all other work is but preparation."
"It is good to be solitary, for solitude is difficult; that something is difficult must be a reason the more for us to do it."

And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour

Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere.”
