She said southern boy, not girl:D

Re: What are you reading?
 

:r

Also "a GOOD southern boy" at that...

Re: What are you reading?
 

I'd say Poe, perhaps?

Re: What are you reading?
 

Capote always wished he was from NY anyways. Harper Lee on the other hand seemed to wish she was a southern boy...;)

Re: What are you reading?
 

Final: Grisham.

Re: What are you reading?
 

Yr cool.:tu:D

Re: What are you reading?
 

A Virginian, but not a true southern author IMHO. I do love some Poe though.

Re: What are you reading?
 

Well, geography be damned. He's so been incorporated into the "Southern Gothic Milieu" (how pretentious is that?). Hey, I'm from Michigan. So anyone South of Kentucky is a "Southerner".

Faulkner-The Hamlet

Re: What are you reading?
 

Faulkner is my favorite author, althought I've never read The Hamlet.


Absolom, Absolom! is his greatest work IMHO.:2

Re: What are you reading?
 

I acquired a volume with the whole trilogy in it-just the way Faulkner wanted it. You gotta love them Snopes:tu

Re: What are you reading?
 

I've never read a Faulkner book but I did a 12 page report on him once. Ha.

Currently reading Dan Simmons' Children of the Night.

Re: What are you reading?
 

Most recently, the previous three posts before posting this. :) Been revisiting Isaac Asimov lately. Reading Nemisis right now.

Hilarious people!

Re: What are you reading?
 

For whatever reason, I decided to reread "The Stand" by Stephen King. I just finished reading "Angels & Demons" by Dan Brown.

Re: What are you reading?
 

The Big Sleep by Raymond Chandler. One of the characters smokes "Interactos." Marlowe calls them "toy cigars."

Re: What are you reading?
 

Reading Violence of the Mountain Man by William W Johnstone.

Re: What are you reading?
 

All Quiet on the Western Front

Re: What are you reading?
 

The Coldest Winter by David Halberstam. Fascinating book. Some interesting political parallels with current politics.

Re: What are you reading?
 

I've always enjoyed Halberstam's books. I saw this one when it came out but forgot about it. Thanks for the reminder ... guess this one goes on my list too.

Currently reading Before the Storm by Rick Perlstein. It looks at Barry Goldwater's rise to take the 1964 GOP nomination. However, it is really an account of how the modern conservative movement was born. I'm a political junkie and Goldwater has always been a hero of mine ... so, it is an interesting read.

Re: What are you reading?
 

Finished a little cozy piece by Debbie Crombie called Shared in Death-a bit ho-hum, but someone donated the entire series to the the library so I thought I would give it a try. Same patron donated a bunch of books by Tim Dorsey-Florida like you have never seen it. I am reading Florida Roadkill right now. Reminds me of Leonard Elmore sort of.

Re: What are you reading?
 

I read playboy for the articles :r

Re: What are you reading?
 

Jeffery Deaver, "The Bodies Left Behind". First non-Lincoln Rhyme novel of his I have read. So far, very enjoyable.

Re: What are you reading?
 

Just finished Greg Bear's Darwin's Radio, and am about 100 pages into Darwin's Children. Hardcore, biological sci-fi.... as a geneticist wannabe, I found the concepts fascinating and the pace of the writing excellent.

Re: What are you reading?
 

Had to read "Your house, Your garden". Dang I wish I had a green thumb. Not my favorite book!

Re: What are you reading?
 

I've been reading "The Pirate Hunter" Good, but the author seems overly focused on pirates' sex lives

Re: What are you reading?
 

Yeah I really enjoyed those. I've had migraines like that character's before, I completely related to that one.

Re: What are you reading?
 

I am currently reading The Sorcerer's Plague by David B. Coe. It's a continuation of the story of Grinsa from the Winds of the Forelands series.

Re: What are you reading?
 

Still working my way through the Mitch Rapp series by Vince Flynn. Just started Consent to Kill. So far so good.

Also started reading Gates of Fire by Steven Pressfield. It is a story about the battle of Thermopylae. Think of '300' but with a little different storyline about it. Very good so far, can't wait to get into the actual battle scenes.

Re: What are you reading?
 

Read The Murder Room, by P.D. James and now I have started another Tim Dorsey-Hammerhead Hotel...this guy is a hoot!

Re: What are you reading?
 

12 Who Changed the World by Morris Inch

Re: What are you reading?
 

Well, I'm caught up on the Alex Cross novels (James Patterson), and am currently reading the couple Jeffrey Archer novels I haven't read. I just finished A Matter of Honour and am now reading False Impression. I remember a couple of other novels he had written as being some of the best reads in some time...not these two as much (still good, but not his best).

I'm trying to decide where to turn next...maybe Jonathon Kellerman, or more Jeffrey Deaver. We shall see.

Re: What are you reading?
 

Currently working my way through 'Practical Programming for Strength Training' by Mark Rippetoe, Lon Kilgore and Glenn Pendlay. Good stuff, and very informative.

Re: What are you reading?
 

Heard really good things about it at Dave Draper's forum.

Re: What are you reading?
 

I'm Not Perfect by David 'Boomer' Wells.

Re: What are you reading?
 

Started on Chapter one of The Old Man and the Sea by Hemingway. With my schedule, I don't know when I'll get around to finishing it (although it is very short).

Re: What are you reading?
 

Wow- there's a name from the past! he must be pushing 70 now, isn't he?

Re: What are you reading?
 

Now reading "How the Irish saved Civilization"

Re: What are you reading?
 

Mid 60's, and still going strong. He's had a rough 12 months, health-wise, but still "bombs away" regularly. His wife, Laree, runs the forums and their internet shop presence. The regulars at the board have an annual get together, and it's a pretty good community, with areas for oly and sports related lifting, powerlifting, bodybuilding, all lifting, and even kettlebells. Dave's good people.
