Any book suggestions?
I'm still waiting on copies of Code Complete 2 and the Extreme Programming Pocket Guide to arrive at my doorstep. As you can see on the right, I'm re-reading some parts of my MSIL book. I personally don't like to read books that are language specific. I love books on patterns and practices and .Net framework. Any suggestions on a great book out there I can pick up that you've read and would give a "must read" review? I wonder what the people who write books read in their spare time, if they have any spare time. If you're smart and dedicated enough to write a book, what are you reading? Anything?

Currently listening to: Astounded - Tantric

I just started in on Patterns Of Enterprise Application Architecture. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0321127420/qid=1109085394. I'm looking forward to spending some time with this book.

Currently reading -
Agile Project management with Scrum - Ken Schwaber
Design Patterns Explained (Shalloway,Trott) - great book.
Also, re-reading Grady Booch in OO Analysis and Design with apps was fun last month. Maybe you can try these out.

Looking at my recently read, very good (and language agnostic )books... "Maximizing .NET Performance" qualifies. I reviewed it on my blog:
