Books - What Are You Reading / What Do You Recommend?

[GunsRBadMMMMKay]

I've read the lord of the rings and give a +1..........I also enjoyed a lot of Robert E. Howards books, as well as a few more modern writers in that genre, some that stick out are the Dragonlance saga and Thieves World, though the latter were a little crass lol. I haven't gotten into a good book in years (at least one that isn't technical) but have been wanting to see if the Ice and Fire books are as good as the GOT show.


As to what I am reading right now besides the internetz.................Caterpillar repair manuals are not that interesting to talk about (unless you work on them I guess).

"Fearless" by Eric Blehm.
Incredible story.

Just finished reading the first Harry Potter book to our daughter who is 6. She paid attention to the whole story and even tried to sneak the book to daycare to read the last chapter herself. We got the movie and she watched it two days in a row, and told us many differences between the book and the movie. We LOVE that we got her hooked on a good story. We've read other books to her before, but she never tried to sneak one out to finish it herself. Right now, I "accidentally" mentioned that maybe book two is the one where Voldemort kills Hermione, and left the room. Now I can hear her in the other room freaking out and reading the sleeve cover to see if that is true. Love it!

Has anybody read "American Gun" by Chris Kyle? am on chapter 6 page 143 got a question. " The second was a .45-caliber, semiautomatic Colt service revolver with the official name of "Automatic Pistol, Caliber .45, Model 1911". it was a weapon that in the right hands could turn bad luck good". Is this a typo? The 1911, service revolver?

I would say it has to be a typo semi auto and revolver together make no sense at all.
