Reading "Liberty and Tyranny" from Dr. Mark Levin. Interesting read for those who enjoy conservative manifestos. Had to do something, getting aver a wicked-nasty stomach virus that shot my 3 day weekend to hell!

Just finished "Fiasco" by Tom Ricks (reporter). Pretty good read, but now i'm interested in counter-insurgency theories and have no military background to help me navigate
I just finished the Odd Thomas series, started Odd Thomas last weekend and just finished up the fourth book in the series today. Apparently Mr. Koontz is planning on writing a total of 6 books for the series, can't wait for the next two. I think this is my favorite work of his next to "From the Corner of His Eye".
I finished up reading A Time To Kill last week...I enjoyed that one...better than the movie. Aside from that, I've been nose-deep in Dean Koontz books...I'm gonna run out sooner than later.
Where the the Willows Whisper by Chad Arthur and Breakaway by him also.
It's only his 1st and 2nd novel by him and he is off to a pretty good start.
Guess this is a plug because he's a great friend of mine.
www.ChadArthur.com and tell him Doughty sent ya!

Have you read From the Corner of His Eye yet? That is hands-down my favorite Koontz book.
I swear I have a copy but I can't find it and I don't want to buy another unless I'm sure I don't have it...so, long road to a short destination, No, I have not read it. I think my favorites so far have been False Memory and Dark Rivers of the Heart, giving the nod to the latter of the two.

I don't think I have read either of those two. I just finished up the Odd Thomas series, the books he has done for it so far anyways. If you haven't read them yet either, I highly reccomend that line. I'm really waiting on the third of his Frankenstein books to come out, it has been due for about four years now, so who knows.
I'm bad about reading too much at once, but mainly book two of Song of Ice and Fire: Clash of Kings... and Musicophilia by Oliver Sacks. Skimming through an old banned book, Might is Right, that Anton La Vey ripped off.
Tonight I will be re-reading Airframe by Michael Crichton. I originally read it almost 10 years ago in High School... I remember it being good back then... Feels like so long ago...
All tomorrows parties by William Gibson ...any fans of the matrix will like his books as the movie has stolen many of the concepts from the books...I suggest getting your hands on necromancer and mona Lisa overdrive ASAP...

Matrix you say... Concepts that make one quesitons their very existence in this world you say... Hmmm (scratching chin in contemplation) Mr. Connors, I like the way your mind works...
Just got a Kindle for my birthday. It hasn't even arrived yet and I probably have 30 books loaded up on it. Got a LOT of reading to do this summer! Going to try and break away from the Ice and Fire series long enough to read the first book in the Axis of Time series, Weapons of Choice. Anyone read that? Sounds fun.
And late last night I started a book my wife got me for Christmas, How Football Explains America, by Sal Paolintonio. Good first chapter.
Luko let me know how that book is. I've been interested in it ever since I heard about it.
The first chapter is "How Football Explains Manifest Destiny." That should be good...go west, young man. Of course, in 2008, I can tell you that East Coast teams can go west and win, but West Coast teams can't go east and win.
First off Luko, I have to tell you that as a lifelong Seahawks fan your Steelers logo disgusts me (Superbowl XL). But, you are right. West coast teams always have a difficult time going east and winning. I remember in Dennis Erickson's last year as coach in Seattle (98?) the Seahawks just had to go to New York and beat the pitiful Jets to get to the playoffs. Jets won. Erickson lost his job and Holmgren came to town.
Need to Know: UFO's, The Military, and Intelligence by Timothy Good. Good stuff.
and Through Our Enemies Eyes by Michael Scheuer
I wanna make sweet tender love to my Kindle.
