Just finished Game of Thrones From a song of Ice and Fire. Pretty good. Some scenes and characters were very different then how the show depicted. Moving on to book 2, A Clash of Kings.

Slaughter House Five by Kurt Vonnegut, Almost done it. Not a bad read I must say.

Had a bunch of books that I'd forgot about laying in a drawer that I bought when the local book store closed and everything was 90% off. Randomly chose one. That was first draw, next up is The Stranger by Albert Camus

Isaac Asimov's Foundation series, the collected works of H. P. Lovecraft, 1984, Les Miserables, ...

I read a LOT. I've always got my Kindle with me.

Oh man, Foundation. I read the whole series years ago and have managed to collect most of Asimov's books. If you're into SciFi, look at:

Robert Aspirin (everyhing)
Larry Niven (Man Kzin Wars, Bug Wars, etc.)
Poul Anderson (everything)
Brian Herbert (son of Dune author, Frank Herbert)
Piers Anthony (Xanth, younger readers)
Stephen R. Donaldson (the Gap series, Thomas Covenant, etc.)

I also read a lot of American history, particularly presidents and cabinet members. Anything by H.W. Brands is excellent.

Currently in the middle of Peter F. Hamilton's Void Series. I just finished his Night's Dawn series before that. I recommend his work to anyone who likes science fiction.

Currently on an Andrew Napolitano book. Can't think of the title.

I read Freakonomics and Super Freakonomics. Great books. I think you'll specially like it if you're a numbers guy.

I need to finish reading World War Z. Love the way the book is written.

"Blood Personal" By Frank C Strunk. One of the best books I've read!
