If yall haven't read any Amor Towles, I'd recommend you give one of his novels a try. He has a knack for writing about mundane things in a way that just enthralls and captivates me. He's also an excellent story teller, and his top notch exposition just adds to that.

I'm in the middle of All Quiet on the Western Front. I know it was assigned reading for me at some point in this life, but I just do not remember the book being quite this good.
Chapter 7 is some of the best description of a soldier's life ever.

Left for dead - Eric Jay dolin
His newest book and it’s very reminiscent of “ the wager” but this is one 260 pages with pictures on most every page so this is a very short easy read
Next up is Leviathon- also by Dolin about the history of whaling in America

This is the first book by Stephen Leather I have read not featuring SAS/MI5 Operative, Spider Shepard as the protagonist. In Triggers, a young girl in Russia is pimped to oligarchs and politicians by her father. As she matures, she develops multiple personalities, each of which has special skills useful in exacting revenge against those who raped her. A British agency captures her after she kills a Russian oligarch and eight of his bodyguards. The agency wants to put her skills to use in their black ops.

I just read the book "A $500 House in Detroit. Rebuilding an Abandoned Home and an American City" by Drew Philp:
I picked it up because I have an interest in rehabbing blight. It's not something that I do today, but something I'm considering doing in the future. The book provides good insight into life in run down parts of a city and the author's journey to make a living in an area in Detroit that most people would never consider. It's a very easy read if anyone is interested. The book tells the story about the author growing up as much as it does about the work involved with rebuilding a house into a home.
I am now in the middle of reading a book called "American Legend: The Real-Life Adventures of David Crockett" by Buddy Levy. I am big fan of Buddy Levy's writings and have one more book of his queued up that he wrote with Mike Leach called "Geronimo: Leadership Strategies of an American Warrior." So far his book about David Crockett is an enjoyable read and it provides great insight into the life of frontiersman.
