What book are you currently reading, or recommend?

Steppenwolf by Hermann Hesse.

For those of you addicted to Lord of the Rings, D&D, and just people into the medieval fantasy genre, I'd very highly recommend A Song of Ice and Fire. For those of you hopelessly addicted to it already, did you hear it got picked up by HBO for a pilot? I can only dream...

If anyone's got delicate sensibilites, it's R-rated.

Constantine's Sword by James Carroll. A former Priests writes a mixture of history and self analysis on the general topic of the relationship of the Catholic Church and the Jewish religion, focusing on how the Church may have provided the foundation for the culmination that was the holocaust.

Carroll is critical of the Church, but is also a profoundly sincere Catholic, and it is this juxtaposition of contradictory feelings that makes the read - to me - interesting.
