Atlas Shrugged
Its weird how much I enjoy Rand, coming back to read her is like talking with a old friend again. I can safely say that reading The Fountainhead changed my life for the better. I'm only on the second chapter in Atlas but already I can tell its going to be amazing.

I just started it as well, it already has a grip on me I haven't felt from any art in a while (aside from my own to be honest).

Just finished The Book - The Taboo on Knowing Who You Are - Alan Watts Great read, and one I feel would be good to pick back up every year or two.
Just started 'The Alchemist' by Coehlo

TMC the mushroom cultivator. Little dated but still tons of great info. Especially if your new like I am. Definitely worth the 35$ from fungi.com.

Thank you to RR, 13shrooms, and everyone at AMU, for taking the time to help out people new to mycology, such as myself. Buy RR's let's make mushrooms DVD. Best 45$ I spent so far in this hobby. I only grow edibles! Thanks again everyone for all your wisdom and kindness.

I've been listening to a Buddhist monk read the Dhammapada since I can't read any texts in Pāḷi yet.
The Dhammapada is a collection of sayings in verse form written in Pāḷi and in which the text contains unique situations with certain lessons to be learned that the Buddha, monks, or family members encountered in the monastic life.
I for one find this very intriguing, but to each his own of course. 
Also there are English translations so I may actually pick one up eventually, but for now this shall do just fine.
