I just finished Fledgling - Octavia Butler Good House - Tanarive Due Ender's Game - Orson Scott Card and Watchman [graphic novel about to be made into a movie so I am told] - Alan Moore [Wrote the graphic novel V for Vendette] Rocket River Trying to figure out what to read Next
I just finished: The Night Manager- John Le Carre Hollywood Station- Joseph Wambaugh I like spy and crime novels. I am now reading a book on trading- Come Into My Trading Room
Kite Runner - Khaled Hosseini Not exactly the type of book I pick up usually ,but got it for $7 or $8, so I figured what the hell it's got rave reviews so let's try it. Solid book, a little bit of a departure from the Ender's Game, Prey, Jurassic Park, Dark Tower Series type books that I usually read, but was amazed at just the sheer ability to tell a story so powerful in a country that I'd forgotten even existed. It even made me have a heart and feel sorry for the Afghan people when you see what they're countries gone through. yes, this is still the great tmac posting lol. i've got a couple of others in the making, but starting off with a book at a time and see if i can rediscover what i used to love doing, reading.
In the last month: Empire - Orson Scott Card Titan - Ben Bova Fieldwork - Mischa Berlinski Days of Infamy - Harry Turtledove End of the Beginning - Harry Turtledove
Re-Reading the Runelords saga by David Farland (has really neat, unique ideas for a fantasy series) Once I'm done with that, I have some I'm going to read: The Prince of Nothing trilogy by Scott Bakker (this has been highly reccomended by George RR Martin fans). The Lyonesse Trilogy by Jack Vance The Malazan Empire by Steven Erikson And for technical growth: CWNA Official Study Guide
Pistol: The Life of Pete Maravich by Mark Kriegel After I finish that, I have My Year Inside Radical Islam: A Memoir by Daveed Gartenstein-Ross in the queue. I do plan to read The Science of Success: How Market-Based Management Built the World's Largest Private Company by Charles Koch before he becomes my boss this fall. It seems like the only books I read for pleasure, I hear about on NPR.
