Just finished Rise to Rebellion by Jeff Shaara, and started the second book in that series, The Glorious Cause. It is a historical fiction account of the American revolution.

Excellent read.

Guns, Germs, and Steel by Jared Diamond - Great read so far!

there, i fixed it. only exception i can readily think of is blade runner.

You know what movie really pissed me off? Twilight? I don't think its anything like the book!

Lately i've read American Assasin by Vince Flynn
It Might have been what he said by Eden Collinsworth
The Gate House by Nelson Demille
Queen Takes King by Gigi Grazer

A book that's so terribly boring that I doubt i'll finish is Moscow Racetrack
Its super slow and there's a bunch of boring Russian history. Kind of stuff
you first learned in 6th grade, and they repeated in 11th Grade.

I Just started reading The Turnaround by George Pelecanos

I'm reading The Thirteen-Gun Salute by Patrick O'Brian. Really love these books (the Aubrey-Maturin series).

Just finished "Rather Outspoken". Good read. Now I've started Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger's book, "Making a Difference."

 

[Rupe]

"Dutch: A Memoir of Ronald Reagan" by Edmund Morris

 

[gentimmy]

Just finished "The Big Miss" by Hank Haney and now have started "American Sniper" by Chris Kyle. Hank's book was really insightful on what it was like to be in Tiger's "inner circle", so to speak.

Let me know how American Sniper is, it's on my list to pick up

Just finsihed 6 rules every man must break by Bill Perkins

Now I'm reading Point Man by Cheif James Watson & Kevin Dockery: So far it's a good read about him becoming a Navy Seal and the tours he's been on.

I Pulled The Hobbit off the shelf yesterday and started reading through it again.

With the movie coming out December 14th I wanted to see how badly Peter Jackson butchered it.

It has been a few weeks but I finished the 2nd book of the Hunger Game Mocking Jay.

Been re-reading some classic Tom Clancy. Finished Hunt for Red October last week and am reading Red Storm Rising now.

Oh man, I loved those books. Good idea re-reading them. Might do that myself. I like going back and re-reading some of the old Robert Ludlum stuff. It is amazing how much different the Bourne series movies were from the original couple books.

 

[Mythsmoker]

About halfway through the new Dresden files book. Cold Days.

 

[Mo1281]

Right now I'm reading the second Game of Thrones novel, The Hemingses of Monticello, and The Death of American Virtue: Clinton vs. Starr.

 

[tazbigdog]
