The past 2 weeks I bought: The new metasploit book, backtrack 4 ,python programming, and the wireshark study guide. I've read the metasploit and backtrack book over the past week, now Im going to hit the 900 page wireshark book.
I have 30 other books on my wish list with Amazon, so after wireshark..on too more. The more I learn from these books, the more I want to read IT security/pen testing books.
Does anyone else have this addiction?

All I can say is study whatever you are motivated to. If you find a tremendous desire to work your way through any kind of hands-on study guide then you should be doing just that. -

I can relate, but family changed all that. I still read every now and then, but balance is the key.Every day hurts, the last one kills.
