I read half of steven colbert’s book in one sitting. its not content heavy, and to be honest the humor gets old fast. I don’t really have a desire to finish the book. last week I read Autobiography of an Idea by Louis Sullivan (architect of the guaranty/prudential building downtown among other things) ![http://www.bc.edu/bc_org/avp/cas/fnart/fa267/sullivan/guaranty.jpg](http://www.bc.edu/bc_org/avp/cas/fnart/fa267/sullivan/guaranty.jpg) it was good, focused more on his upbringing and only had 70 or so pages on his education at the beaux-arts and his work as an architect now I’m torn what to read next. i have a collection of manifestos from prominent 19th and 20th century architects, or I’m trying to get In Cold Blood from a friend of mine --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/read-any-good-books-lately/42236)._
