Well, the title of the thread itself will probably keep some people from even opening this!  Cheesy

I would love to read and discuss any books you may be interested in. I am currently reading "Unbreakable". The story of a WWII bomber who survived a crash into the ocean followed by 47 days at sea then 30 plus months in a Japanese POW camp. Phenomenal book.

Allie throw your review in here too once you're done!  Wink

I am reading George Bush's book "Decision Points".

It is very good. The book explains the key issues while he was president and why he made the decisions he did. I really enjoyed his point of view when explaining the election with Al "I invented the internet" Gore and the Florida recount.

All kidding aside, I do want to pick this up at some point, when I have a break from reading all the books I have for my classes (which will probably be mid-May).

Even though I voted for him both times....I didn't always agree with Bush's politics; however I have been most impressed with how he has handled himself in regards to Obama since he left office.  He has been very respectful as even Oprah pointed out when she interviewed him during his book tour.  Rather refreshing from a politician.

AND I want to read his book...but I will be honest...I want someone to read it TO me.  Books that can border on dull are always better on tape.

I read light stuff all the time. 

For my "serious" reading, I'm reading The Death and Life of the Great American School System by Diane Ravitch.

My hero - Jumpin' Joe Namath

I just finished reading Frank Kriegel's Namath.  I recommend for anyone who is a Joe Namath fan.  Shows  the Joe off the field, not just on.  Actually went back and re-read parts because I wanted to absorb it more.

Just started Daniel Silva's The Rembrandt Affair.  The latest in a series about Gariel Allon, Israel assassin for the government and masterful art restorer.  I read all the books Siva has written about him.  Love 'em, love 'em, love 'em.  

Downloaded Johathan Kellerman's Mystery and Harlen Coben's Live Wire.  I already have downloaded Decision Points but haven't started it yet.  I need to be able to concentrate when I read it.  Laura Bush also has a book coming out April 5, Spoken from the Heart, which I will download when it comes out.

I love to read - as should be obvious! - and prefer to read books written by men rather than women.  Hedduk and I have very similar tastes in reading.

The list of writers I download whenever they publish a new book goes on and on!

I found this to be a curios statement.  Would you care to elaborate?

The Holy Bible is a page turner. "Atlas Shrugged" has kept me busy for longer than I care to admit.

# for the Bible BAMAWV. I have read it, all the way through a couple of times. I still don't understand it. My Father says the same thing...he's read it dozens of times. I don't think we are really meant to understand the whole concept, but then, what do I know.

At this point in my ancient life, I prefer to read nothing that's of literary "value".  Just mainly junk.

Douglas Preston/Lincoln Child novels, Grisham, etc.  Mysteries, and about anything involving legal thrillers.

Oh...and I'm a huge fan of Dan Brown.  Just re-read "Angels and Demons" for the third time.  (I tend to forget books quickly - each re-reading is pretty much like the first time!).
