Two books I had been working on for a while. Atlas Shrugged, which I've read before and Poor Economics which has been on my kindle for quite a while now.
Atlas Shrugged is a brick. As an audiobook it was 63 hours long, and John Galt's speech was 3 hours of that. I listened to it on three times speed and that was still over an hour of real time.
I feel kind of guilty for liking this book. I don't agree with the entirety of the philosophy, but I like some bits - like the focus on passion and taking responsibility. I feel very positive about this review.
Poor Economics is non-fiction. It discusses finance and economics amongst the world's poorest people.
Soul Fire and Soul Storm are the second and third parts of the Soul Beach Trilogy by Kate Harrison. I really could not put these books down; I finished Soul Storm at 1am this morning. It's a great series.
Finally, Awaken is the final part of Meg Cabot's Abandon Trilogy. It's a modern retelling of Hades and Persephone. It was okay. Not as un-put-downable as Soul Beach especially since I read the first book ages ago.
