What do you typically like? Fiction? Non-fiction? Specific genres.....

I can read pretty much anything. I read a lot of fantasy books but I also enjoy horror. I love some history books along with biographies.

My go-to reading: Sci-fi, Steven King, and many of the classics, like To Kill a Mockingbird, On the Beach, 1984, Animal Farm, The Hobbit/Lord of the Rings, Inherit the Wind...etc.

For fiction books I am a big fan of Michael Connelly (Bosh series) and John Sanford (Davenport series).

If you like Fantasy, try the series "A Song of Fire and Ice". The first book was made into a HBO series "A Game of Thrones".

Books by George R.R. Martin.

I'm on book #4 right now, and I just started reading the series in September. Easy read, great writing.

Yes, I highly suggest it.

I just happen to come across it while waiting for my plane back to Indy while in Vegas. Thought it would help me pass the 6+ hour flight back home (layover).

Picked it up, and haven't put any of the books down since. From one to the other, to the other.


Like $9 for paper back, though I know you are looking for it electronically....

Yeah I'll be able to get it for 8 on the kindle. So much more convenient. All I need is wi-fi and I have it in about 5 seconds.

You would think the price difference between paperback and e-book would be greater, considering the lack of publishing/printing costs for e-books.
