[NFBuck]

'Lunar Park' by Bret Easton Ellis

Good read, a definate departure from the rest of his work.

 

[PlanetFrnd]

Bad Money by Kevin Phillips.

 

[IronBuckI]

Just finished Starship Troopers - Robert A. Heinlein
Not as cheesy as the movie...not as entertaining either. A lot of philosophy/long winded preaching from the author.

Next up: Dark Tower VII - Stephen King

 

[SanAntonioBuck]

The First Commandment - Brad Thor

He's fast becoming one of my favorite authors...

 

[Muck]

WWII British special agent...just happens to be a werewolf.

 

[Gatorubet]

Over the Edge of the World: Magellan's Terrifying Circumnavigation of the Globe - Laurence Bergreen


Fantastic.

Gang Leader For a Day-Sudhir Venkatesh
Basically, Kumar Goes to the Hood- an Indian grad student in sociology hung out w/ the leader of the Black Kings in the Robert Taylor Homes in Chicago for 8 or 9 years

 

[buckeyegrad]

Just started The Making of the Modern University by Julie Reuben. Too specialized a topic for most people, but is one of my concentrated areas of study.

I beleive the title of the thread is what ARE you reading, not what do you want to read

Yes, same guy, this book is his personal story-although he barely mentions the gang notebooks.
