As for thread contribution 1) Dark Tower: The Drawing of the Three 2) Dark Tower: The Wastelands 3) Dark Tower: The Wizard and the Glass Most of these books are fairly well known at this point, hopefully I don't have to explain to you what they're about. If you don't know, gogo read them now kthx. Those are just the fiction books. Non-fiction: 1) Everything Bad is Good For you A great read about how pop-culture and our current over-stimulated culture is actually making us more aware and "intelligent". It has some interesting points, but should be taken with the grain of salt it deserves. 2) The Omnivore's Dilemma Another good read about the food we eat, where it comes from, who grows/processes it, and the ways in which we eat it. It covers the military-industrial complex chain of food, the "organic" chain of food, and the local, self-sustainable aspect of farming and the sub-culture it inspires. 3) ??? Perhaps The God Delusion, it seems to be fairly popular around here, and Dawkins is just the right kind of elitist asshole for me. | ||

Wiki ![[image loading]](http://farm1.static.flickr.com/31/59066062_2d0707ddfc.jpg?v=0) 2) Currently reading the 50th Law, great so far. Robert Greene has the midas touch.. The topic is fear and how it could hold you back. It is co-written together with 50 Cent and feaures a lot of stories from his time as a drugdealer. If you are to read a Greene book, start with the 48 Laws of Power. Greene Site ![[image loading]](http://foreverdc.com/wp-content/uploads/50centcover1.jpg) 3) Next book I plan (have to) to read; Nervous Conditions, mandatory reading for my current english class. Only about 200 pages so it shouldn't be that big of a deal, though I hate reading books I have no interest in. ![[image loading]](http://www.aliyana.biz/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/book1.jpg) | ||

Now reading: A Feast for Crows I'm re-reading the series because of the Tower of the Hand website. All the revelations and reading between the lines gives new meaning to all of the books for me. Next: The Greatest Show on Earth by Richard Dawkins. I WANT this book so bad.. | ||

Born to Run ![[image loading]](http://4pack.files.wordpress.com/2009/04/borntorun.jpg) It's actually a really interesting book about one of the most epic recent races (100 miles through the mountains with top ultra distance runners against some crazy tribal people) Reading Now: Macbeth ![[image loading]](http://sp.ashsteachers.org/skonickia/MBW/Pictures/macbeth.jpg) Just reading some of the classics again... Next: ![[image loading]](http://jennifermorrill.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/catch22_cover.jpg) I keep on hearing that it's a really good comedy book but I've never read it. My US history is really bad so I'm a little scared that I might not get some of the irony satire stuff in it but I'll read it soon I hope. | ||

![[image loading]](http://aliwriteshere.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/godelbach.jpg) Excellent book if you don't mind math or headaches. Currently reading: ![[image loading]](http://www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/images/n5/n28134.jpg) My brother eats a book a day or so and he recommended this one. I'm not sure about it yet though. Next to read: ![[image loading]](http://bookwormburrow.files.wordpress.com/2007/07/a-wrinkle-in-time.jpeg) in the hope that THIS time around I can actually make sense of it. Considering that last time I read it I was 8 or something... | ||

Just got done with all the current Dresden Files books by Jim Butcher(Bob the skull cracks me up) Highly recommended. They are a little mystery, horror, and fantasy put together and always very funny. ![[image loading]](http://www.ukmelia.com/ridiculousthoughts/uploaded_images/stormfront-706065.jpg) Current Now back to an old series the Recluce Saga ![[image loading]](http://ebooks-imgs.connect.com/ebooks/product/400/000/000/000/000/091/695/400000000000000091695_s4.jpg) On Tap Picked it up to read again at a local bookstore with a bunch of sci fi pulp mags from the forties and fifties P.S. woo 200 lol | ||

I think you will be fine with Catch-22, to me it didn't seem to rely on extensive prior history knowledge on the part of the reader. (Also, it is one of my favorite books, so hope you enjoy it.) Also I will definitely check out Born to Run, so thanks for pointing it out. @Atlantian: My friend really really really wants me to start reading the Dresden series, but I just have so much on my tbr pile that I can't...  . | ||

On Tap Picked it up to read again at a local bookstore with a bunch of sci fi pulp mags from the forties and fifties P.S. woo 200 lol Great book. If I had to pick a favorite author it would be Heinlein, he was fucking genius. SF today is for retarded angst teenagers | ||
