I just finished a book called, “The Eighth Sea by Nancy Spowell Geise. It was great. I love book that have to do with history, ships and relationships. Put all three together and I really love it.
I just finished a book called Mr. Perfect, by Linda Howard. It was really funny, there was a crazy psycho killer and some romance. Those are my type of books. I love a good mystery that has to be solved, with some suspense… and a little fun with a female and male character just adds to the excitement, haha.
@Megabyyte - Thanks – page turning mysteries filled with suspense – great stuff.
non-fiction… currently reading “The redneck manifesto” and man, it makes me proud of being an egalitarian/humanist.
Thanks for your comments on my blog! I like reading. The end. (hee hee)
Historical fiction, dystopian scenarios, political theory. I mix in a little bit of contemporary “lite” reading- Janet Evanovich, etc.
If I’m caught during my lunch hour without my nook or a book, that’s the only time I’ll drop by a drugstore and pick up a cheap romance.
I like science fiction and fantasy. And I also like reading The Federalist by the Hamilton, Jay and Adams; also Aristotle and Plato and other writings of the ancients.
I’m mostly into fantasy and science fiction, but I’m also getting more into atheism and bible scholarship. I recently started reading the bible itself as well; I’ve never read the bible in full and want to be able to say that I have.
I read a lot of fantasy and young adult books, but I’ll read any book of any genre as long as it sounds interesting to me.
I usually read sci-fi, especially Stanislaw Lem, Isaac Asimov and Ray Bradbury. I also like sort of off-beat humorous stuff, like by Richard Brautigan, James Thurber or Kurt Vonnegut, and if I read nonfiction it’s usually pertaining to the environment or evolution. The last book I read about ships was Moby Dick, which I partially read and partially listened to as an audiobook. It’s definitely one of the best books I’ve read, if you can get past the chapters that are totally antiquated and unnecessary (such as Melville’s arguments that whales really are fish, or his long-winded description of the classification of whales.)
@vickevlar - I remember reading Moby Dick in High School Thanks
