I heard "The Audacity of Hope" is a great fiction novel.

I heard "The Audacity of Hope" is a great fiction novel.

Isn't that the one written by Bill Ayers?

(It's on the internet, it must be true!)

Reading now:

"Michael Kohlhaas"

By Heinrich Von Kleist

Great classical German literature. Google the title if you're curious ofthe plot. Very good book about a honest and principled man whose virtues hurt him in the end.

I HOPE THEY SERVE BEER IN HELL freakin hilarious

Hah hah! I second that!

Tucker Max -- I HOPE THEY SERVE BEER IN HELL

(Chapter xx: "Tucker has butt sex, hilarity does NOT ensue)

----------------------------------------------

also good: "The Alphabet in of Manliness" -- by Maddox

(So manly some of it's sentences don't
end in periods)

I just finished Diving Into Darkness by Phillip Finch, really good book. It's nonfiction about deep cave diving, the main guy was a Cathay Captain.

Any of Robert Parkers westerns, "Appaloosa", "Resolution."

"Uncommon Carriers" by John McPhee, interesting look at several different ways of shipping stuff and the people that do it.

"The Elegant Universe" by Brian Greene, but only if you're a geek like me.

 

[Sandhawk]

Anything recommended by Oprah

In order of merit, these all time greats should not be read if you have a check-ride pending. You wont be able to put them down.

Non fiction of course:

"Legionnaire" by Simon Murray

"Stalingrad" Anthony Beaver

"Mao" Chang & Halliday.

Respectfully.
