yini is on page 118 of 368 of Everything and More: A Compact History of Infinity
Pre-review commentary: 1. If I had read this book when I was still learning math in school, I probably would have continued taking math past calculus. Which is to say, this is a very admirable project/product. However: 2. DFW really needs a style editor. 3. He possibly needs a mathematics fact-checker as well.

yini is 13% done with India After Gandhi: The History of the World's Largest Democracy
I'm not sure how unbiased of a history I'm getting, but the book is pretty good nonetheless. Creepy thing about my kindle = it tracks how fast I read.

yini is starting India After Gandhi: The History of the World's Largest Democracy
Will I have the time to finish this 900-page behemoth? Ironically, only time will tell. (Bought the kindle version so as not to be constantly reminded of how slowly I progress.)

yini is reading Eating Animals
Just to be clear: I'm not reading this because I plan on becoming a vegetarian (nor is "converting people" Foer's missive in the first place). More on the subject later.
