Favorite non-fiction:

Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down - Anne Fadiman (this book has a string TE fan club, as I recall) - also by her - Ex Libris - a must for book lovers!

I'm a big Karen Armstrong fan (Lise, were we twins seperated at birth?) - I just read her Biography of Muhammed, which made me want to re-read Satanic Verses (an "all-time top 10" book for me)

I liked Jared Diamond's Guns, Germs and Steel, and have almost finished Collapse (sort of depressing...)

I haven't unpacked my non-fiction, so not much more is coming immediately to mind - oh, except essays by Joan Didiion and Barbara Kingsolver (esp. High Tide in Tucson)- I love a good essay.

Ok - off to bed to read -
