Just got The Man in the White Suit. I've been trying to make it through Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. I'm half almost half way through but it's to slow.
Added to my Amazon List. Currently reading The Hitman's Guide to Housecleaning: Hallgrimur Helgason: 9781611091397: Amazon.com: Books on my Kindle. It's OK, nothing great so far.
I just finished reading the Millennium Trilogy( The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Girl Who Played with Fire and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets Nest), excellent read. Once my move is complete, I plan on reading If Chins Could Kill: Confessions of a B Movie Actor by Bruce Campbell. Then Ill probably read A Dance with Dragons by George R R Martin so I can get caught up.
The Swedish films based on the trilogy are excellent as well. I am into Steve Matchett's "The Chariot Makers", and "The Mechanics Tale" right now...great F1 books by a knowledgable insider.
I have the Swedish ones downloaded just waiting to be watched. The new one with Daniel Graig was pretty good as well, but as I understand they got a lot more of the books in the originals.
I am getting my fantasy fix right now. With the final book of the series released earlier this year I am rereading the Wheel of Time series. I last read the series up to the 10th book. So now I have roughly 4+ million words to read to finally finish the series......
I've been reading the Game of Thrones series. I'm currently on the last book until the next one comes out. I would much rather read the books than watch the show. Trying to decide what my next book should be.
I think I am going to do the same thing with Game of Thrones.....wait until he finishes the series before reading any more, if that ever happens
Started reading this in 1990, with the time between books I got frustrated with having to go back and reread volumes to remember the previous plot lines. Maybe now that it complete I'll revisit the series, starting from Book 1. Hello t Half Priced Books for this one!.
Almost done reading Brad Thor's latest "Hidden Order". You will learn a lot about the Federal Reserve, verrry scary!
Dance is my next one, I already read up to Feast of Crows and didn't think it was as bad as everyone said. Slow yes, but bad no. Though maybe now with HBO leaning on Martin he will step it up so that they don't finish the story for him. But I've been watching the show as well. After watching the premier, that's what made me go buy the books to read. So far I have enjoyed the crap outta both.
