1) A Random Walk Down Wall Street. My current audiobook. Dry as hell in spots, but pretty great most of the time.

2) Day-trading for Dummies. Turns out I didn't know what day-trading is. It's uber-mega-stupid. I'm pretty much reading this one because I figure it's worth knowing how the chartists think, if you can call it thinking. This book and the previous book are kind of like reading about the Atkins diet and raw foodism at the same time. I love that there's a wikipedia article that uses the word "foodism."

3) That twelve million dollar shark. Still loving it but as I decided to pull some money out of the annuities and put it in IRAs I'm being responsible.

Let me know how Century hits you. I read Eye of the Needle last year and was absolutely entranced. The people who tell me how to write tell me to read Follett.
