ksdaddy Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 I've been reading a lot lately. No idea why. I used to complain that I'd fall asleep after three pages of anything, but for some reason I read almost nonstop now. In the past 3 weeks I've read: Winesburg, Ohio - Sherwood Anderson I Lived to Tell it All - George Jones The Diary of A.N. - Julius Horwitz Making the Good Life Last - Merv Griffin Currently reading: Lake Wobegon Summer 1956 - Garrison Keillor Waiting in the wings: A Satisfied Mind (Porter Wagoner) - Steve Eng Hard Rain Falling - Don Carpenter Kinda 'all over the place' but once a week I go to the thrift store and grab a few.

zigzag Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Blackie, I would have figured you more for a reader of fiction. I just got thru re-reading Miles (Davis), couldn't put it down the second time, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommyK Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 "Man for the Ages" - Irving Bacheller It's a bio/novel of one Samson Trailer. It follows him on his and his family's emigration from Maine (or New Hampshire) to the banks of the Sangamon in Illinois. About a third of the way through the book he meets up with a tall skinny man in New Salem, named Abraham Lincoln. They become great friends. That was a while back. I, most recently read magazines.

Witmer Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Things Fall Apart Chinua Achebe That's a great book. Bought it for school' date=' and still have it. I've been reading Asimov's [i']Foundation[/i] series, but stopped for a break to read one of Piers Anthony's novels. Really light fare. At work I'm cranking through one marketing book after another, so I don't feel like anything heavy at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVOL! Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Just finished Philip K. ****'s Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? Great book. Strange to see how people back then thought we would be living now. Flying cars, you say? Heavy, heavy into This Wheel's on Fire – Levon Helm and the Story of The Band. Levon is my favorite drummer after Steve Shelley and this book does not disappoint. Love the Band too. If you dig rock bios like me you won't be able to put this book down.
