    I've recently finished The Dark Tower series, Crime and Punishment, and the first two books of A Song of Ice and Fire.

    What's everybody else reading nowadays?

    Getting ready to read Anthony Bourdain's Medium Raw. I generally enjoy his stuff.

    Sounds interesting. I read parts of a book called Manliness a few years ago. Good topic.

    Has anyone read the Hunger Games? Is it worth the hype?

    If you like epic fantasy, check out Steve Erikson's Malazan series. It's dark and heavy, it's weird and hard to follow at times, but I like it.

    GRR Martin would be terrific if he would ever finish the damned series.

    The Whore of Akron is pretty good. It's a Cleveland fan's take on LeBron

    I'll check it out. Currently reading a Storm of Swords, but I'm going to be putting it on hold. Reading The Odyssey, Dante's Inferno, Pride and Prejudice, The Great Gatsby, and two other books this semester for my sophomore English class.

    I had to read The Great Gatsby every year for about a 6 year stretch due to school.

    Great Gatsby is one of the only books I have read more than once. F. Scott knows how to put a sentence together.


    Right now I am on the Girl With th Dragon Tattoo series. They have been great so far.

    My sister in law is into that series right now. Says its real addicting. I pretty much like anything Stephen King writes.
