A familiar story

I finished The Arabian Nights today. Technically it's The Book of a Thousand Nights and a Night, but we'll not quibble. I enjoyed rereading it, and this edition included a few more stories that I was not familiar with.

My only complaint is that the whole time I was reading the story of Alaeddin, I was picturing the princess's father as a doddering, portly old man like in the Disney movie. Damn you, Disney!

I didn't bring any other books with me today, so we won't know for sure until Wednesday what will be next. I have a feeling I'll be rereading Catch-22.
