Now that I'm out of class for a month I want to pick up a few good books to read. What are some of your preferences?

They don't have to be "outdoor" type books, but that is what I would prefer to get.

Being on the OB the first thing that popped in my mind was All the Pretty Horses by Cormac McCarthy. Haven't read it in awhile but thought it was awesome first time I read it.

Tales of a Louisiana Duck Hunter
Hell divers Rodeo


Recently read hell pig hunt and it wasn't nearly as good as the divers rodeo.

It's a coffee table book, but First Shooting Light is awesome

I watched Lawless the other night (it's about Appallachian moonshiners in the 30's) and it was awesome. It's based on the book The Wettest County In the World by Matt Bondurant. Since it's based on a true story, I figured I'd read the book to get the whole story since the movies will of course change things. The book is better than the movie.

The Bourne novels are pretty good. I also enjoy Larry Mcmurtry. He wrote Lonesome Dove and a bunch of other westerns.
