I read this. It is pretty damn good.

I just finished The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss. Now I'm reading 20th Century Ghosts by Joe Hill.

I just finished Into the Wild. Good book, slow at times, but it def makes you reconsider some things and put them in perspective. I would suggest it to anyone

Good read. I've read a lot of Lethem's stuff. Interesting enough, the first of his books that I read was, "Gun, with Occasional Music".

My life is extremely hectic right now.. so it will be. At least until I find a new job.

After that though I can already tell I'm going to read through these books extremely fast, already up to like page 175 in 2 days.

ETA: This is while putting 70 hours in at work a week right now, and having Master's Degree classes on top of it.

Right now I'm almost done the first of the Mitch Rapp series by Vincent Flynn.


Read all of the Mitch Rapp books-very entertaining.

Just finished up The mission, the men, and me by Pete Blaber. Great writer (for a former spec forces) with very interesting and translatable outlook on life. Definitely worth the read for fans of Unbroken, Lone Survivor, and other war/inspirational books.

Just finished a Song of Fire and Ice and started Clash of Kings. Nice to read all the details that the series left out. Some characters give off a slightly different impression in the books.
