Guess What I'm Reading

So I mentioned on Twitter that I was reading Ayende's DSL with Boo book, and I recommend it. I thought it fair to mention what I'm reading now that I've finished it. Without looking at the picture to the left, can anyone guess? Hint: It's related to the work I'm currently doing with an existing application. Yeah, you guessed it. Brownfield Application Development in .Net by Kyle Baley and Don Belcham. How'd you know? I'm really busy so I'm not making quick progress; even my leisure reading is on hold.

I'm not sure, but I'm guessing that one or both of the authors have worked with or trained with JP Boodhoo because he's already been mentioned. I like that it's putting together a reasonable argument why Brownfield isn't that bad. Even lays outs some reasons why its actually a good situation. The first chapter is free so you can sample it yourself.  Also, Manning emails coupons all the time so let me know if you're thinking of buying.
