Sounds interesting..Is the HBO series inspired by the book?

Terry Pratchett's Unseen Academicals

Hidden Order: The Economics of Everyday Life by David D. Friedman

Hey Angel, what is Hidden Order like? I seem to have an obsession with reading everyday economics books so it sounds like it may be interesting. I just finished Superfreakonomics which I liked.

a clockwork orange...and its freaking hard to read...

Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights. Very classic but I didn't finish the book because couldn't stop jawning. Now I'm really ashamed of it.

I'm Reading Silent Partner by Johnathan Kellerman. The cover isn't incredibly drawing in but the content is good so far, though i'm only 5 chapters in. It's my first real adult level reading book so I'm excited. Wish me luck.

p.s. Next on my list is "Brutal Uncut". It's a book about an ex gay porn star who get thrown into the world of drugs and prostitution. Excited about this one!

Then "Need" it's a book about pixies or something haha it looks interesting.

Afterwards i've got "The Van Alan Legacy: A Blue Bloods Novel" i've read the previous 4 and I can't wait to dig into it

Hello Tania, I like the Hidden Order but not as much as The Logic of Life (The Rational Economics of an Irrational World) by Tim Harford. If you liked Superfreakonomics I am sure you will like The Logic of Life. I enjoyed it very much and found very eye opening. Tim Harford uses economic principles to explain rational elements of addiction, crime and other supposedly illogical behaviors to illustrate his larger points in arenas like marriage, the workplace and racism.

Thanks Angel I'll give Logic of Life a try :D

I'm also in the middle of 'The Drunkards Walk: How Randomness Rules Our Lives'. I'll hunt down Logic of Life next...
