I've tried the eBook thing, but it just doesn't work for me. I've been reading since I was a child and it's a way I not only learn, but release stress. Something about holding a book and turning the pages is comforting to me. But I only read fiction and educational, if it's technical I read online. Can't sit through a programming book.
There are some good books so far. Here are some of my personal favorites, in no particular order.
- Trinity by Leon Uris
- Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follet (I read World Without End as well, but didn't come close to Pillars)
- Inge: A Girl's Journey Through Nazi Europe by Inge Joseph Bleier
- The Game of Thrones Series by Martin
- The Social Animal by Elliot Aronson
- Anything by Patricia Cornwell --- yeah, yeah, it's dumb shit, but I love Kay Scarpetta and her hot little lesbian niece.
- To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee -- such a great book
- 48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene
There are plenty more, those are the ones that just came to mind when I think of great books. I've read a lot of the classics, but I just can't get into them. Emily Bronte is decent, and Oscar Wilde isn't horrible.
