Reading suggestions

Posted by Scott | April 11, 2006 .

Ive been doing a good bit of reading on my little vacation from work. Im almost finished with the book Im on now and want some suggestions on some good books that youve read or heard good things about. When I go to Barnes and Nobel normally I will just go to the magazine section and look through nerdy magazines that catch my attention, so I have no idea on what some good books out now are.

Leave your suggestions in the comments.

    The World Is Flat: A Brief History of the Twenty-first Century - by Thomas L. Friedman

    Not Fade Away : A Short Life Well Lived - Peter Barton & Laurence Shames.

    Both of these are good reads. Not Fade Away is a little bit of a downer, but is still very good.

    I’ve been reading a lot of Tibor Fischer recently…check out The Thought Gang or Don’t Read This Book If You’re Stupid.

    Also, if for some reason you haven’t read every single David Sedaris book, get a late pass. it’s the funniest shit you will ever read.

    “Knowing God” by J.I. Packer
    “Blue Like Jazz” by Donald Miller (haven’t read it yet but heard great things) and of course
    “Mere Christianity” by C.S. Lewis

    and forget barnes and noble.. You can get the same books off half.com for so much cheaper.. most older fiction books are .75 plus $3.25 shipping for hardcovers.. much cheaper then the $20 at the book store

    LAMB The Gospel According to Biff, Christ’s Childhood Pal. — Christopher Moore

    One of the funniest books I have read.
