Minor League Ball Community Discussion: what are you reading?

Time for a community building exercise:

What non-baseball books are you currently reading?

Somehow I got through high school and college without reading Moby Dick. I decided to remedy that. I’m about 80 pages in and so far I am very much enjoying it. The 19th century-style prose took a bit of time to get used to, but I am increasingly appreciating the complexity of it and brain exercise is always good. Melville’s ability to paint word pictures is quite remarkable.

What’s on your bookshelf?
