"The Power of Positive Dog Training" by Pat Miller (Amazon Link).

Good stuff so far. With a new five-month-old puppy, the training exercises are a great way to tucker her out. They seem to make her more tired than a long walk does!

If you enjoyed the first two you should read the third, they are all good I thought.

Game of Thrones book 3 - Storm of Swords, the books are great and the show is pretty awesome too.

I am also with the others on the Stieg Larson trilogy. I enjoyed them all.

The "What are you reading" thread.
Sorry couldn't resist.



I recently listened to "Rant" by the guy who wrote Fight Club.
Interestingly odd.
I have a copy of "Pygmy" but haven't been able to sit down and read much of it.

Chuck Paliniuk is a great writer, IMO.

Yesterday I finished: Family Affair: Greed, Treachery, and Betrayal in the Chicago Mafia

It was decent. I like Mafia books, but this seemed more like an encyclopedia than a story.

Now I am reading: License to Pawn by Rick Harrison of the show Pawn Stars.

Just finished Catch-22. I had heard a lot about it and it never made it on my required reading lists in highschool, so I checked it out. I was not particularly impressed, actually, and I normally really enjoy the "classics".
