If I ever get time to read non textbook material, it would have to be Barnes and Noble classics! I am half way through the Brothers Karamazov, and it is just wonderful. Dostoevsky is such a great writer, and I forgot how good non-fiction could be. So yeah, lately I have been getting into classic literature and poetry. It helps ease my mind, and is a delightful break from reading Kant and Hegel, ha!
