I have read The Picture of Dorian Grey, The Godfather and out of all the books you've listed, they're probably the best.

 

My list:

 

Books

Hostile Waters

Neuromancer

Ebola

The Chamber

The Tommyknockers

The Moon is a Harsh Mistress

Pale Blue Dot

Babbit

2061

3001: The Final Odyssey

Contact

Present at the Future

The Pretender...

 

This is all for the Summer...not to mention my goal of eventually re-reading Atlas Shrugged...

You've got a good list overall, though I personally find the Economist not at all interesting compared to Scientific American.

Cheers,

Carl Sagan's books, I have been told are awesome.

I'm planning on re-reading A Brief History of Time and then the sequel A Briefer History of Time.

 

Also I want to get to finish some Dawkins: ie. Selfish Gene & Blind Watchmaker.

 

My summer vacation has just ended - back to school.

Have gone for a science rounded subject choice, topped off with some economics and english.
