Re: OS Book Club Pt II

Friday Night Lights and the Blind Side are both great sports books, both better than the movies.

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Cooperstown is pretty great too.

I'll check them out, I should have specified that I am huge into baseball and basketball. I do like football though, just not as much as the other two.

Not a big basketball guy. I have a couple baseball books lying around the house to read. After I get to them, I'll pass the word on.

Nice, thanks for the tip. I had a few dollars left in my Amazon account and have been looking for something to buy. Just picked it up. And it's only $2.51.

Of course the real question is when I'll get around reading it. Got way too many books on my Kindle at the moment.

Re: OS Book Club Pt II

I used to be a big reader as a kid but from high school until recently I just couldn't get excited about reading.
Then I got a Kindle Fire for Christmas and it has really got me back into reading, I forgot how fun it is to just sit down and read.

Some of my friends recommended The Hunger Games. I finished it in 2 days, I loved it. I can't wait to move on to the second one and I'm really interested to see how the movie turns out.

I've always wanted to understand the world of sabermetrics, this might get a buy from me.

Re: OS Book Club Pt II

Starting tom, I will be attempting to read at least 50 pages a day, at least six days a week. I feel intellectually bored now finally being out of college. While 300 pages is not a lot, once I get in the habit, I will likely read much more. While I am not entirely sure what book I am going to start with yet, some options are:

Malcolm X: A Life of Reinvention
Che Guevara: A Revolutionary Life
Random Vonnegut book
The Second Hitchhikers guide book
Obama's Dreams from My Father
One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest
The Tipping Point - Malcolm Gladwell

I will probably just randomly pick one tom, but I am set for awhile. I have three full bookcases in my tiny room.

Re: OS Book Club Pt II

I'm currently reading The Zombie Survival Guide by Max Brooks. Very easy read and quite funny. It's one of those books you can pick up and read for a short period of time if you want, you just blow through the whole thing.

Going to be jumping into World War Z after this.

Re: OS Book Club Pt II

Finishing up A Feast for Crows and then Ive got this waiting, looking forward to taking a break from George RR Martin for a little bit:

Finishing this up soon. I have trouble putting it down. I have 150 pages left, and will try to finish it tomorrow.

I enjoyed this but man was it short!! It was more of a brochure than a book but I guess for less than 3 bucks you can't expect too much.

I'm reading 'How to win friends and influence people' at the moment. It's ancient now but is still a good read and teaches some valuable lessons imo.

Re: OS Book Club Pt II

I started reading A Game of Thrones last night, but only read the first 20 or so pages. I'm excited. I brought it to work to read on my lunch break.

I'm thinking I'm going to switch off between this series and Cormac McCarthy's Border Trilogy over the next several months.
