Why not start one?

Just starting "Word of Honor" by Nelson DeMille.

I wrapped up the Jedi Academy trilogy by Kevin Anderson which were pretty good., a bit rushed, but I love Star Wars... I like the work Anderson has done with the Dune books and he has grown as an author since.

Everyone should read Camus' The Stranger at some point in their life. One of the best novels I've ever touched.

I'm almost done with Magical Thinking by Augusten Burroughs. I love his books, this one has been really funny. Up next is One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest by Ken Kesey.

Les Miserables is my absolute favorite, so I'll give it a shout out here.

Most of what I read is non-fiction... I would recommend most of them to others. :lol:

I've been meaning to read Cuckoo's Nest. I mean, read a book from a guy who wrote it while tripping face?

Choke was interesting.

I recommend Dave Barry's two novels, Big Trouble and Tricky Business. If you're into fantasy, I'd say George R. R. Martin's A Song Of Ice And Fire series (unfinished) is good. As are the Mistborn books by... crap, I forgot his name.

The Bathroom Readers are great for... well, you know.

Non-fiction, I'd go with The Blind Side. Haven't seen the movie, but the book was interesting, both from an analysis of football and the game's transition, as well as a human interest story that is very touching.

Started reading Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. Brilliant concept. Decently written so far. I bought this book for the premise alone.

The Little Prince! It's been my favorite book for years, and will probably continue to be my favorite book for the rest of my life. It's just amazing on so many different levels. Phil knows how much I love that book haha.
