Here's a partial list of the books I've read lately - post 1 of 2:
Against All Enemies & Dead or Alive - Tom Clancy and a co-writer
The Currents of Space - Isaac Asimov
A River in the Sky - Elizabeth Peters
The Lost Gate - Orson Scott Card
It's Your Kid, not a Gerbil - Dr. Tom Leman
The Affair (a Reacher novel) - Lee Child
A Patriot's History of the United States - Larry Schweikert & Michael Allen
Some brief notes on the books.
A Patriot's History is a very good view of our history without a liberal slant to it. The Lost Gate is very good, as is A River in the Sky. The Affair is a novel from the early part of Reacher's military life and a good companion to the other novels. The Clancy novels were so-so. They didn't seem to have the fire as earlier novels. For me, books by Asimov don't have a middle ground. I either like them or don't, and Currents of Space is a real miss for me.
