NON-FICTION
..Title: Zero: The Biography of a Dangerous Idea
..Author: Charles Seife
..Pages: 230
..Review: There are some (but very few i'm afraid) who find beauty in mathematics. This book is for those select few who do. It chronicals the original need and idea, and also gradual acceptance of the number zero. It also goes into detail about the current uses of zero and infinity in astrophysics and other sciences. I personally found the book enjoyable but I'm afraid I'm one of those "select few" who finds beauty in numbers.

..Title: Augusta, Gone: A True Story
..Author: Martha Tod Dudman
..Pages: 255
..Review: Well, I was starting to feel like Augusta myself, and for the first time, realizing what I had done to my own mother. It's really good if you can relate but if not, I don't know if it would be of interest.

..Title: Tuesdays with Morrie
..Author: Mitch Albom
..Pages: 192
..Review: A book of lessons and morals. Friendship at it's greatest. Though I'm afraid it's another one of those Sunday afternoon stories of merit and kind words. There's not much to say for or againsy this book. It was just sorta THERE.

..Title: Walden
..Author: Henry David Thoreau
..Pages: 312
..Review: One of the best books i've ever read. It's one of those books where if you don't get it, there's no point in reading it. It's a step into Thoreau's mind, his way of thinking. It's an easy book to put down and not pick up again so i don't suggest you put it down until you've read the last page. I can guarantee you won't regret it.
