I am currently reading "The Cub's Way" which tells how Theo Epstein built the Cubs into World Series Champs (and Red Sox too). He is very upfront about everything and you are expected to follow his blueprint. Very interesting book. After the Cubs won the World Series (and the Red Sox previously) I joked that we should bring Theo to the Cards. He proves knowing more about people will take you farther than just knowing the numbers.

Jane Goodall - "In the Shadow of Man". Not that compelling a story but I have a reason to read it - I want to understand as well as possible the creatures(chimpanzees) we evolved from. DNA says we did but as you dig into the details of how that might have happened it seems to get more and more implausible. Once we get into the stone age, making sharp spear points from shaped flint, we were suddenly the apex predator so its not too hard from there on but getting to that point is extremely challenging.

The Fireman by Joe Hill.

I've read everything he's ever written. He is a lot like his father (Stephen King). Really like his writing.

"Origin"

By Dan Brown... I like Browns novels as they usually move along at a great clip so they are hard to put down. Unfortunately Origin does not move as quickly as previous Langson installments. It seems Mr Brown got just a touch carried away with some of the art descriptions in this one and it drags the story a bit.

I think it’s been pretty smooth, but I stopped reading with about 70 pages left, which I didn’t expect. It started to drag a bit there, so I will get the exciting conclusion today.

lol... I have caught myself actually skipping paragraphs when the long art history lessons start... skipping anything is unusual for me since I read fast anyway
