@Tone C also just picked up the first Vince Flynn Motch Rapp novel. It's next on the list.

Lol , I bought the first 4 Ash books on Kindle whilst on holiday, not got to them yet though...

https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/s...Winwood explores,in the name of entertainment.

Bodies: Life and Death in Music. Just finished it. Impact of booze and drugs on the music industry, pretty interesting

Some good recommendations on here. Will order 'Gangsters of Capitalism' and 'The immortality key' for sure.

Just read 'Fear and Loathing' which was great and decided to start reading 'Post Office' to get me started into Bukowski's work. Really easy fun read with a lot of laugh out loud moments.

I'm also listening to 'Dune' on Audio after watching the film which is very good. The voice over is pretty spot on for the most part and it often plays background music to help set the tone.

They read fast. I did all 7 in less than 2 months. But I get to read a lot at work currently.

When I finally get my weekend off, I'll be reading a book on Rumi.

I remember a few years ago there was a thread on good horror books for this time of year. It was the first time that someone had recommended me to read Penpal which was awesome. Anybody got any good recommendations? I tried House of Leaves and for the life of me I just can’t get into it.

Caesar’s. Draftkings. FanDuel and a few others.

The Shimmer by Carsten Stroud.

First book from this author for me. It was good enough. It's a time travel cop story. Its time travel mechanics was explained well enough, had a decent ending. very fast read. I'd read another Stroud at some point

After the Lights Go Out by John Vercher. It's about an MMA fighter struggling with CTE. Not exactly uplifting, but excellent so far.

Just started Devolution by Max Brooks, its fiction based on a 'tue story' of when a bigfoot fucked up this entire village. the fuck do I know but it looked cool, and I liked WWZ so why not.

@Tone C I am about 2/3rds through American Assassin. It is good so far. It reminds me of the Will Robie books by David Baldacci with a bit more grit in the story telling.

I'm currently reading Lamb by Bonnie Nadzam. I enjoyed the movie adaptation and re-watched it recently, so I figured it was about time I read the book. I'm about 40% into it and it's a good read. It's interesting denoting the differences between the book and the film version.

I bought my dad a copy of Salman Rushdie's The Satanic Verses for his birthday last month. I plan on reading that one next...

All of these are great if you like series'

 

[WadeWatts]

These were really good non fiction

I think Auerbach has another book out no ?

He does…but after reading the synopsis I couldn’t bring myself to read it. I have two young boys so it’s a little close to home.

I loved WWZ and was very disappointed with Devolution, especially the ending.

I've been on a Chuck Palahniuk kick lately. Choke is all kinds of messed up (in a good way), but in rereading Fight Club I found it to be surprisingly flat.
