I also am usually reading two or three books. A lot of books I read are of very heavy subject matter and sometimes I don't feel like reading them before going to sleep.
Right now I am part way through The Federalist Papers-reading the real english that we used to speak is taxing sometimes. We spoke so elegantly and intelligently!
Part way through WWII day by day-very, interesting. I have learned a lot that I didn't know, little things mostly but they all add up.
Every fall I start wanting to re-read Stephen King's Dark Tower series(I keep thinking about stuffy guys) So for the first time I am reading it all the way through(Since I have all the books now) I am almost finished with book three, four more to go!
When I finish a book, I was going to start The Lone Survivor by Marcus Lutrell, but DGD reminded me that I have been telling her that I would start the Harry Potter series two years ago and haven't. So I guess I'll do that next.

I love James Patterson also, haven't read anything by him for a while though.
