Books

Since today's post of the day is one I can't really post until the day is over, I thought I'd do this book related meme I've seen doing the rounds instead.

The book I am reading

The Windup Girl

The last book I received as a gift

That'll be the book on Elven whose exact title I can't recall off the top of my head

The last book I gave as a gift

Again, lousy at remembering titles, but it was a book (actually 2 books) on Egyptian art (and one on writing) to izzy_stradlin

The nearest book

Without getting out a tape measure, I'm not sure if it's my copy of The Windup Girl that's in my rucksack under my desk or my copy of Oracle PL/SQL Programming that is lurking unloved at the back of my desk
