[QUOTE="ScentofCedar, post: 179175, member: 3353"] Just finished or finishing The Other Boleyn Girl, The Constant Princess, The Boleyn Inheritance (all about Henry the VIII, the women he married, and the events that resulted in their deaths and all by Phillippa Gregory). Have one on Katherine of Aragon by Anya Seton to read, next. I liked The Power of Now but have been very disappointed in Eckhardt Tolle's latest efforts. Best new author (to me): Tim Willocks ~ The Religion (Historical fiction) Currently also reading Against Happiness by Eric Wilson. Very interesting book addressing how and whether medicating for depression may have affected, not only creativity, but how these medications may have turned our attention away from addressing problem areas in our lives before they became overwhelming. Interesting thing to think about. The Black Swan by Nassim Talel. Haven't done more than skim the jacket on this one. Seems to be about how we are hardwired to think and what we miss seeing because of it. The Book of General Ignorance by Mitchins. Very interesting and well-written book filled with stories surrounding many of the things we all think are true, but turn out not to be. Barbara [/QUOTE]
