Paradise Lost - Milton

I have to read (and re-read) slowly for comprehension - much like Shakespeare. But really enjoy it.

Currently reading The Leopard by Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa. Don't know how I've never read this before but it's quite enjoyable thus far.

Well I've been pretty busy but have managed to read:

Wayward by Blake Crouch (You need to read Pines first)
Walk the Sky by Robert Swartwood
Dust by Hugh Howey
Hit and Three (both Chandler Series books) by Konrath/Kilborn
The Enraged by Brett Battles

A lot of the above are series that can stand alone but are much better if you read from the first book - with the exception of Walk the Sky.

Currently I am beta-reading "Eleanor" by Jason Gurley for release around November I think.

I'd also suggest: Mineko - Book of Sisters by yours truly.

It's on Amazon and Smashwords. I do need a couple of reviews posted on both sites - so if a few of you guys/gals would promise to do that - I'll send you a free copy in either mobi or epub.

Re-reading Stephen King's The Stand (haven't read it in almost 20 years) but this time I'm listening to it on audiobook because I have a 30 min drive to and from work every day so it really kills the time but listening to it is better than any movie could ever try to be.

timj219 · 10-25-2013, 03:02 PM

"On Saudi Arabia" by Karen Elliot House. Good read it told me a lot about current conditions in the country. Now I'm rereading "The Structure of Evolutionary Theory" by Stephen Jay Gould
