Johnny Galecki may have little in common with the ubergeek he plays in CBS's "The Big Bang Theory," but he still likes to bury his nose in a good book. He recently talked about what was at the top of his reading list.

"When I'm working, I can't really read fiction. I don't know why. Maybe it's because I can't have too many characters in my head when I'm thinking about my own crap. I've gotten into a great biography, 'Brando' [by Peter Manso]. It's brilliant, but it's like 1,700 pages long and it's difficult to travel with. That's why I picked up 'Public Enemies' [by Bryan Burrough]. I hear it's entirely different than the movie. It's much more about the evolution of the FBI. I was in a Wal-Mart in Wisconsin and the only choices were a lot of religious books and that one. I've already got a lot of Baby Jesus books at the house."
