Read on Hacker NewsI read, and as Daniel noted above, I tend to read several at a time. Generally, I read philosophy and theology (my undergraduate degree is in philosophy), though most recently I've been picking up some of the collections of essays my wife is reading for her graduate work. I'm also a huge fan of anything about the history of Pittsburgh. Current reading list: Christianity and Anarchy Jacques Ellul The Gulag Archipelago Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn Third Ways Allan Carlson My reading time seems to come in fits. Some days I won't pick up a book, and others I'll read for several hours. As for my favorites: The Town and the City Jack Kerouac The Death of Adam Marilynne Robinson The Presence of the Kingdom Jacques Ellul
