DFWMUstangs Book/Reading list

[OreoStang]

I've read the Ender series (Ender's Game, Xenocide, Children of the Mind and Speaker for the Dead) but I haven't read any of the Bean offshoots.

I'd love to sit down and re-read all of them.

i actually just finsihed the bean off shoots. Ender's shadow, shadow of the hegemon, shadow puppets, and shawdow of the giant. great books and captures to me the the ender world. go pick them up

[slowyellow]

lone survivor was the last one i read. The last 50 or so pages will bring a tear to your eye, i'd bet on it. Great book though.

[Strychnine]

Definitely.

I'm Rereading it so I can read the sequels

Shibumi by Trevanian.

It was written in 1979, I think, so some of the technology mentioned is a bit off, but more of it is waaaaay ahead of it's time as far as data/internet stuff.

More importantly though, it's a cool spy story.

Mickey Thompson: The Fast Life and Tragic Death of a Racing Legend. Great book !

I want to get Smokey Yunick's autobiography. Best Damn Garage in Town.

Currently reading Friday Night Lights since I couldn't find any Half Price Bookstores that have the next book in the series I was reading before hand. After that, I'll probably start reading either Green Hell or Assholology.

Cool, sounds like what I'm looking for. Thanks, man.
After reading the Tower series back to back to however many back a few years ago, I unofficially quit King, just from over-saturation, but fucked up is right in my wheelhouse.

Stephen King is great, but his last few books (with the exception of Duma Key) have been blah. I read them, but I haven't really connected with the characters or the stories like I have with other King novels in the past.

I liked From a Buick 8, very good. My all time favorite King novel is still The Stand, great characters and story.

You should try the Long Walk by Slavomir Rawicz, The Hidden War by Artyom Borovik, or The Iron Wall by Avi Shlaim. Some of my favorite non fictions I've read this year. 1) Escape from Siberian prison 2) Russia/Afghanistan from Russian perspective 3) Concise history of Israeli's foreign and military relations.

just recently finished "From A Buick 8" by Stephen King....

I've read quite a few of his books, but this one was by far the most fucked up....

Decision Points.

Nice choice! I'm about 3/4 of the way through George Washington, The Indispensable Man by James T. Flexner

Let a nigga loan that shit.

I think the Long Walk is being made into a movie due out early next year.

You need to read Every Man a Tiger , hoss. You might like it.

The Stranger by Camus

One of my favorites.

Term Limits

Greatest book ever. I picture a senator from nv.

Currently reading The Confession by John Grisham.

Not sure what I will start on after I finish this one... probably the new book by Dennis Lehane Moonlight Mile. It's the sequel to the book/movie Gone Baby Gone.
