Just started reading "open" about Andre Agassi. Pretty interesting story about his life and childhood.

I could read Malcom Gladwell all day. I read Outliers and the Tipping Point, I will probably read Blink next, did anyone enjoy this one as much as Tipping Point or Outliers?

[FenwayKing The Well: FenwayKing]

Think Blink was my favorite although Outliers was close

[DetUcf]

Clash of Kings right now and have Girl that Kicked the Hornets Nest lined up next

Same - Tom Seaver
Black Beauty
The Bourne Identity and Matarese Circle
Catch-22
James Thurber
The Tin Drum- Gunther Grass

The Enneagram- Helen Palmer
David Sedaris
Thich Nhat Hanh

add:

Ragtime: EL Doctorow
100 yrs of solitude: what's his name
Some story about some kid who likes cats then has an accident and is in the hospital dreaming about being a cat and out fighting for his life and having adventures then wakes up in the hospital...anyone help me out on this one? My 4th grade teacher read it to us.

About to read How to win at the Sport of Business by Mark Cuban (just a short 67 page ebook, based off his blog which I highly recommend blogmaverick.com)

For entertainment, reading the Hunger Games trilogy

Thought the Hunger Games trilogy was awesome. Read all three books in a week I think.

Hopefully going to start the game of thrones soon and maybe that mind fullness book on the side.

I fucking hate reading books, but I want to read The Hobbit again. I read it in 8th grade and couldn't put it down. That might be the only book I have ever read that I can say that about.

[kanders10]

some good books mentioned in here!

been in philo mode so rereading 'the rebel' - albert camus

[Steve Murkle]

I Think Huckleberry Finn is the best book ever made but thats just me. My Ideal life

[Stockage]

Just finished this series. It's not the stuff I normally read but it was a fun flip. Super hero good versus evil based in Vegas with a Steve Wynn type of character as a baddie. The series has nothing to do with gambling. Sorry, can't post anything that may increase the size of your noddle but you can always pick up the daily newspaper. All sorts of shit in there that makes me more informed every day :)
