Miyagi-Do Karate Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Killer angels, its about Gettysburg, I love the civil war stuff. World war Z, way better than the movie Killer Angels is very good. I am not a fan of the sons' two other books which he added to the trilogy.

snafu Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Crime and Punishment. First time is read it I was about 19. Then I re-read it abouth 30 years later. Whole different perspective. I came away thinking that Raskolnikov was a major a-hole. I started reading Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy and got lost. After about 150 pages I started over from the beginning and I'm glad for it. That's one I would read again. I want to read Treasure Island to my son soon. Then Northwest Passage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HereComesTheReignAgain Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I've recently started listening to books on Audible since I travel more. The Martian by Andy Weir was the most entertaining book I've ever read/listened to. I am sure I will go back to it down the road. Highly recommended.

rockpile Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 What? No Starship Troopers? Very good book; very average movie. Of course that is just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsPride12 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 I don't think I've ever reread an entire book. I've re read certain portions. I've read through portions of Keith Richards' autobiography a few times as that was my bathroom reading. When I was a kid, the acid trip portion of "That Was Then, This is Now" fascinated me for some reason, and read that over and over. Aw man I forgot all about that book, one of the very few books I read in school that I remember enjoying. I think we read that in the 8th grade, I'll have to read that one again sometime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little off topic, but has anyone here listened to the Serial Podcast on NPR? I keep seeing how great it it, but thats a long series to listen to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
