“Deconstructing Obama” by Cashill

[Explodo]

The Silmarilion - Tolkein

3rd reading. last time read was in 1998. It’s one of those books that produces different thoughts each time you read it. Very Biblical IMO.

[Hildy]

The Tender Bar by JR Mohringer.

[Betis70]

I just finished “The Inner Circle” by Brad Metzler and an oldie “Hammer of God” by Arthur C. Clarke.

Not sure what I’m going to read next, maybe the thread will give me some good ideas.

[urtax$@work]

1.) Goodbye To A River; John Graves, 1960 just finished- twice.

2.) Off the Beaten Trail: William Edward Syers, 1970 just started

[Larry - Moe and Curly]

Kartographer’s Preparedness Manual

[Anitius Severinus Boethius]

In the middle of “Fires of Heaven” by Robert Jordan (yes, reading Wheel of Time... again)

Reading “Moralia” by Plutarch as my current philosophy book

Just finished an amazing book by Lori Gottlieb called “Marry Him: The Case for Settling for Mr. Good Enough”

My Bible and Devotionals as always

Usually a couple of cheap pulp novels on the side as well

[ZGuy]

“Chronicles of Narnia” with my 6 year old.

Just finished Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival, Resilience, and Redemption, a wonderful biography of Louie Zamperini - juvenile delinquent, Olympic runner, B-24 bombardier, prisoner in Japanese POW camps for over 2 1/2 years, and convert to Christ who returned to Japan with a message of forgiveness. One of the best "regular Joe" biographies I have ever read.

Just started The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, the story of a black woman who, unbeknownst to her and her family, donated cervical cancer cells to science shortly before her death. From that small sample, scientists around the world cultured so many tissue samples for use in research that if you could pile all of the "HeLa" cells ever grown onto a scale, they’d weigh more than 50 million metric tons — more than 100 Empire State Buildings. Fascinating stuff.

A few chapters into Les Misérables. I have a Nook on order and I was looking through some classics to load on it. I was comparing translations and that $#*($#( book dragged me in again.

And as always I have a copy of a full set of Sherlock Holmes stores to read one of the stories if I have nothing else to do.

If you asked tomorrow I would have said "What Would the Founders Say?: A Patriot's Answers to America's Most Pressing Problems" by fellow Freeper LS. Books & Co. is hosting a book signing and I plan on picking up a copy and saying hi to Dr. Schweikart.

“Unknown Soldiers” by Neil Hanson.

Exceptional work.

[Wyatt's Torch]

Fiction: Louise Perry The Cruelest Month. My 4th in the Chief Inspector Gamache series. Good escapist stuff.

[fredhead]

Just finished “True Grit” and now reading “The H. L. Hunley.”

i’ll probably follow that with a couple of good old Louis L’Amour novels, before I start another history or biography.

[ladyvet]

The Islamic AntiChrist...Joel Richardson

Surviving the Apocalypse in the Suburbs...Wendy Brown

[Lazamataz]

What Are You Reading?

Suicide notes.

I'm correcting them for grammar, spelling, and punctuation and sending them back.

[nina0113]

Madame Tussaud, by Michelle Moran. Fascinating look at the French Revolution.

[day10]

“What the Night Knows” - Dean Koontz

[Wierzbowski]

I’m about 10% into “The World War II Tommy: British Army Uniforms, European Theatre 1939-45” by Martin Brawley.

Lots of nice pictures, if you’re into British WWII stuff.

[Made In The USA]

‘Decision Points’, GW Bush.

[A Texan]

Patriots: Surviving the Coming Collapse by James Wesley Rawles.

It is an interesting take on a possible next path for our country.
