Book Call

I am bored, and my personal "to read" list is packed with fiction and looks boring. So give me recommendations. I'm in the science nonfiction market, especially biology. Bonus points for things large university libraries should have on their shelves. Is there a good Linus Pauling biography? If anyone knows of a lay-ish intro to bioinformatics, please comment.

Shoutout to [livejournal.com profile] herewiss13: Bryson's Short History of Nearly Everything is available... at the public library. It requires a little pre-planning to get there, so I'm going to wait until they call about my Fifty Degrees Below hold and pick them up at the same time. What else where you exalting? My memory is a sieve.

It's probably just as well I'm out of nonschool reading this week, what with Wednesday's physics test. (The end of Midterm Madness!) Me + novels + stress = things not getting done. Nonfiction is usually a little safer.
