So what are people reading that they highly recommend? I've been reading Framed by Hari Singh. It is sort of a mystery novel used a illustrated framing effects in decision making. My next book line is a Stanislaw Lem novel that incorporates memory themes. Discount days are April 1-4 (25% list) so I wanted to put together a list; usually I'm lucky of Borders has 1 or 2 out the 10 or 15 on my list.
