Recently I picked up “The Screwtape Letters” by C.S. Lewis and the Tao Te Ching at the library. I read the Tao last summer and wanted to read it again. I like that sort of contradiction theme that goes on (“the bright Way seems dim”, “Things may be diminished by being increased”). I used to be really into Eastern philosophy.

“The Screwtape Letters” are a series of letters sent by a demon to his nephew instructing him how to distract some one from God. Yeah, it’s a Christian book. But still pretty interesting.
