Default What book are you reading at the moment???

As i was looking through the new posts I found one by Avandria asking for titles of good books that she could go on to read, that got me thinking, and believe me that hurts!!!
I thought i would ask What book are you reading at the moment?
I will start it of with the two books that i am reading just now
Our story of the cold war space race 'Two Sides of the Moon' by David Scott and Alexei Leonov.
The Rocket Boys by Homer H. Hickmann.

Ok so i'm an astronomy nut that also enjoys photography.

Ummm, as long as it doesn't have to be photography related, I just started "Nightlife" by Rob Thurman. And in the last 11 months I've read 90-someodd books that I'm keeping track of here.

I'm in the process of reading several books on portrait lighting and wedding photography.
And tonight I'll pick up my reserved copy of Joe McNally's "Hot Shoe Diaries" from the library. Most recently completed are "Light, Science and Magic", and "The Moment It Clicks"
