Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, J. K. Rowling

The final instalment of Potter. I've always felt these books were like pop corn, easy to eat and not much substance. I finished it in a day or so. It did have some interesting twists in the end but they spend a bit too long in a tent in the middle.

Notes on the Synthesis of Form, Christopher Alexander

A mathematical look at the design process. It's abstract enough to cover everything from acoustics through economics to athetics. Although it made sense it is very abstract and sometimes hard to follow.
