red_ed Posted July 16, 2005 Posted July 16, 2005 The Art of War <{POST_SNAPBACK}> simone de beauvoir - the second sex <{POST_SNAPBACK}> A bit late, but nice choices there (Y) I still haven't gotten around to reading both of them though. But I "studied" a bit of Simone back in first year philosophy... "studied" because I didn't actually attend class, nor did I read it, nor did I learn/study it, but I do know the gist of it <_< Quote

Capt Snow Posted July 16, 2005 Posted July 16, 2005 Shadow War: The Untold Story of How Bush is Winning the War on Terror Some interesting items in this book for anyone who would like a little more insight into the way the Bush presidency is handling the war on terror. Of course there is probably nothing in this book that will change hardcore Bush haters idea of him, but it can help give you a better idea of the War on Terror as a whole. For the record I am neither a Bush hater nor supporter, I pride myself on being indefinitely in the middle. That way I can look at both sides of the ball objectively, and not let my personal feelings get in the way of the facts. Quote

Now I am reading: The Siege of Budapest 100 Days in World War II Krisztian Ungvary I am a SUCKER for World War II Quote
Capt Snow Posted July 26, 2005 Posted July 26, 2005 Same here man World War 2 was a pretty interesting period and there is plenty of literature and stories to back that claim up. I find that if I read the same type of material one book after the other, I get kinda bored, so I tend to jump to the other end of the spectrum, as the last book I read, to try and keep things fresh. Try, sometimes I stray of course a bit as I did when I read Goblet of Fire and OotP back to back. Quote
babranski Posted July 26, 2005 Posted July 26, 2005 The HP books are the only ones I've read back to back, including the Bourne series. I remember reading Supremecy a few months and a couple of books after reading Identity Quote
avadakedavra Posted July 26, 2005 Posted July 26, 2005 The HP books are the only ones I've read back to back, including the Bourne series. I remember reading Supremecy a few months and a couple of books after reading Identity<{POST_SNAPBACK}>I read the first five back to back. Though I had to keep putting the fifth one down because I couldn't get into it.Right now I'm reading John Steakley's Vampire$. Which John Carptenter did an "adaption" of, if anyone's seen "John Carpenter's Vampires"Book is way better in my opinion. Quote
babranski Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 Book five and book 3 are both books I didn't read all the way through in one reading. All the others I started reading and didn't stop until I was done. Book 3 was the first one I read, and it took me a while to get hooked, book five i got 3/4 way thru and just flat out fell asleep at 4 in the morning, OotP makes for a good pillow Quote
