It's Monday, July 12, 2010! What are you reading?

What Are You Reading? is a weekly meme hosted by Sheila over at Book Journey where bloggers gather to share what we have read this past week and what we plan to read this week.  
I gave up on:

• The Man from Beijing by Henning Mankell

  

I finished:

• The Red Thread: A Novel by Ann Hood
• The Upside of Irrationality: The Unexpected Benefits of Defying Logic at Work and Home by Dan Ariely (see tomorrow's post for my gushing)
• The Marrowbone Marble Company by Glenn Taylor (short quote coming later this week)

I am currently reading: 

•  Kindred by Octavia Butler (book club book for August and I'm already quite sucked in)
• Ancestor by Scott Sigler

Next up:

• Payment in Blood  by Elizabeth George
• The Accidental Billionaires:  The Founding of Facebook -- A Tale of Sex, Money, Genius, and Betrayal by Ben Mezrich
