Anyone have any good books they could recommend? I'd like a good fiction, but I'll read anything.

Hemingway- For Whom the Bell Tolls, and Green Hills of Africa

Burgess- A Clockwork Orange

Orwell- 1984, Burmese Days

McCarthy- All the Pretty Horses, Blood Meridian, No Country for Old Men

Melville-Moby Dick, The Confidence Man


Any of these:http://www.modernlibrary.com/top-100/100-best-novels/

Lone Survivor
Gates of Fire

Read those two immediately

Seabiscuit is the best book I've read in a while. It is page-turning non-fiction. It is also easy to find a used copy. I bought mine at Goodwill for $1. Another book, Unbroken, which is by the same author, got excellent reviews, but I haven't picked that one up yet.

Unbroken is also a great book. Tremendous research by the author to put together this book.

The Wave

by Susan Casey

"Examines big waves from every angle. and goes in deep with... mariners, wave scientist and extreme surfers...

A wonderfully vivid, kinetic narrative."
