What book is............................

[SkydiveStMarys 0]

on you night stand? I posted this question awhile ago, hopefully you have read the last book and have moved onto a new one.


For me it is John, by Cynthia Lennon. It is VERY good and eye opening.

I'm about to finish 'The Algebraist' by Iain M Banks.
Its not bad, but not as good as some of his 'Culture' based Sci-fi.

Scary is not the word that I thought of immediately.

The Mermaid Chair by Sue Monk Kidd.

Now ask me how long it's been on the night stand?

I'm finally reading The Secret Life of Bees - I bought it after my mom recommended it, and it sat on the shelf for months. I'm so glad I'm reading it though - it's quite good. Plus, you should never rush a good book - I'm glad I waited until I was in the mood for this type of novel...

you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel loquacious?' -- well do you, punk?

I'm actually a little disappointed with closing time... But how can you live up to Catch-22?

Callahan’s Con - Spider Robinson
Expanded Universe - Robert Heinlein

I have recently discovered that there are still a few people that have not discovered Heinlein and that makes me sad.

IF you have never read Heinlein.. Go pick up
The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, Time enough for Love, To Sail beyond the sunset, The cat who walks through walls, The number of the Beast or any other of Heinlein’s Novels. You will not regret it.

If you are already a Heinlein fan.. Go pick up any of Spider Robinsons books.

"The Last Shot"

The story of the Confederate raiding ship Shenandoah, which fought on months after Lee surrendered, unaware that the war was over. What an ironic tragedy, heaped upon the disaster of the Civil War. Amazing, too, the hardships endured in those days of wooden ships and iron men.
