• Double Negative by David Carkeet. A comic mystery set in a linguistics facility.  I am on p. 179
• A New History of Western Philosophy by Anthony Kenny. This is a very good history of the subject, well written and clear.  Kenny follows an unusual strategy in that he takes two approaches: He first covers each era in a more-or-less chronological order, then he looks at the big topics of that era in a systematic way.  I am on p. 385, slogging through the scholastics.

• Red Men by Matthew de Abaitua.  I am on p. 97.  Fairly dystopian science fiction about the coming of artificial intelligence.
• Scrivener for Dummies. I am on p. 103.  Scrivener is a tool for writers. 
• The Consistency of Arithmetic and Other Essays by Storrs McCall. Essays on various philosophical topics. I am on p. 29.
• The Drawing of Trump and its Postponement by Fred L. Karpin.  I am on p. 17. A classic on the play of the hand in bridge.
