Rereading the Mysterious Island by Jules Verne
That book sounds pretty good. I wonder if the tv show Lost took from it.

Has anyone read any of Erik Larson's other books? I tried reading Thunderstruck, but I just couldn't get into it like I did with Devil in the White City.

Have you read Wild Ride about Calumet Farms??

One of my favorite books. My son read it for his English class last Fall...it reminded me of how much I love that book.

I'm reading The Foul Mouth and the Mancy Martial Artist by Richard Raley. It is book 5 in the King Henry Tapes series. Sometimes I just need to read something silly.

Read that a couple summers ago. That shite is amazing and so worth the time. I remember it was really long though, but still worth it nonetheless.

Fixing to start Devil in the White City, which I've heard much about.
DITWC is a fantastic read. I finished on my way to vacation in NYC so i made it a point to go see a lot of Fred Olmstead's work there.
i average somewhere between 30-50 books a year and that was my favorite so far in a year. Looking forward to grabbing in the Gardens of Beasts soon.

I just started reading Natchez Burning as well. How far into it are you? I think I'm about 350 pages into it. I agree with what you're saying about being torn, but I like the story and have read all of his other books so I will read the whole thing
ummm... 300 or so pages? i got about 100 into it and forgot it for a flight and picked up the Martian and Flynn and Thor book and read them in between. i just started back at it.

Friend of mine iust gave me "Apathy and Other Small Victories".
I just finished it for the second time. It's the reason I haven't posted the last few days.

I've read a couple of Larson's other books, In the Garden of Beasts and Paddy Whacked. Really enjoyed In the Garden of Beasts.

I'm thinking reading another Stephen King book since I liked 11-22-63 so much. That was the first King book I've ever read. Any recommendations? 
Posted on 6/25/15 at 3:55 pm to Palo Gaucho
This book is unlike any other book of his. Just FYI. What did you like about it? Time travel?
Posted on 6/25/15 at 3:55 pm to Palo Gaucho
I liked Mr. Mercedes a lot. Not a typical King book and there's nothing supernatural in it. He just released a sequel to it (Finders Keepers) that was pretty good. And there's a third one coming.
Definitely make reading The Stand and It priorities if you never read them.
